I like an honest person.
Thank you for the video. Want to install one of these in my 2024 Rebel GT. Didn’t realize until after I signed the paperwork that it did not have the brake controller.

Where can I find the security jumper cable and the software for the home to activate it.

Thanks for the video!

Thank you for the clear explanation. I was not able to find a safety bypass wiring harness for a 2023 Dodge Ram 1500 GT. Can you help me please?

Can you put links for everything you need

[@evanschutz2713]

Considering changing out my 1500 Transmission Shifter to one with AWD Auto. Would that alpha obd work to activate it

[@Dacer54]

You would need a new transfer case as well. I highly recommend looking into the difference before purchasing that shifter. It's not just software.

What’s a ram forum I’m looking for the bypass cable but I can’t find that one

[@ironicallyengineered2486]

The forum I'm talking about is the 5th gen Ram truck forum. But you can find the cable on Amazon or kaodtech. You can get the OBD MX+ dongle on Amazon to interface with the software and the truck. AlfaOBD is on the Google play store.
