Alfa OBD and Increasing Idle RPM

[RodRamCar]

Can I increase my idle rpm using AlfaOBD on my 2017 Ram? Has anyone done that before?

Only temporarily for testing purposes.

When I did this the idle speed went to where I selected on the screen and then back to the stock setting after the procedure was completed.

This is a series of test rpm settings for performing various diagnostic tests. They are not permanenet. I even talked to Alexi about a year ago, because I wanted to increase the idle rpm on my 6.4 so i have higher oil pressure at idle. Just bumping it 100 rpm makes a big difference. He researced it, could not come up with a way to do it unfortunately. I have been hoping he would post an updated option with that in it.

Correct. As noted in my original post, it is for testing/ diagnostics.

AlfaOBD can't do it. Technically it could, Easy for Alexi to program it. But it's in a protected area. Which AlfaOBD doesn't deal with.
It only touch's things that are options/diag/logs. You would need fully unlocked PCM to change it/save it. Then get something like HP Tuner or other tuning software.
