Just finished doing this to my 04 SLT just to people know if you have an 02-05 all you need is bezels fog lights and wiring harness mine wired up perfectly no issues also to switch out the headlight switch on a 02-05 it's just tabs no screw super easy big shout to the video big help *
I am havinh the same problem can u help me ? I did everything u said and still didn’t turn on
Thanks for the detailed explanation and showing everything. Planning on doing this install on my 08 1500 and this helped tremendously.
You're welcome!
Do you know what the app for the OBD tool is called for the iPhone ?
I sure don't brother. Wish I could help!
You guys don’t need the obd thing it’s just plug and play as long as you got the oem fog switch your good thanks for the info doe
Yes you have to have it if it wasn't activated from the factory. If you watch the whole video you will see I had OEM switch and harness and I still had to activate them. Some get lucky with plug and play and some don't. You're welcome brother and thanks for checking out my video.
You did a really good job with presenting everything from start to finish. That obd2 dongle is slick.
Thanks brother
This is the best fog light install video on RUclips! Nearly all the other videos are of some hand made cheap harness wired directly to a RAM switch/cheap Autozone toggle switch or some expensive "special" flash. Glad I came across this one. Obviously Alpha OBD is the way to go. Why would you spend more $ on a program that only can program one thing? I wonder where the factory plugin is for a 4th gen Ram. Figure I'll buy the harness and let the length guide me. I hope there is a plug like the third gen but I suspect it might plug directly into the fuse box. Anyone know?
Thanks man.. The plug should be in the same place as the 3rd gen trucks.
Looks like it operates on iOS now for iPhones. Glad to see it 👍🏼
Thats good to hear
I installed fog lights and the switch and didn’t need to connect any scanner to activate my lights, they just worked. Definitely just try the lights and switch before dumping cash on a tool and app.
A few has gotten lucky like that.
Dude thank you so much for this. Excellent walk-through on how to do it. Very clear instructions and well videoed. I was able to get mine installed easy easy following this step by step on my 07 mega cab 2500.
You're welcome thanks for watching
This is tremendous help, thank you. I have the same headlights on my truck as you have on yours.
You're welcome and love my headlights.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I’m helping my brother install lights for his truck and you helped us out big time.
You're welcome brother
I've had the bezels, lights, and harness installed for over 2 years and have avoided the dealer, just hoping that another solution would come up. I was stoked when I found your video only to discover that AlphaOBD is not compatible with my '07 1500 - bummer. Guess I'll be wiring in a switch. Great video though.
Why is it not compatible?
Very nice, I added the fog lights to my 2004 and was told I didn’t need the flash. But, I’m going to look into this device if it works with my 04. Thanks
Only works with 06+
I’m planning to do the install on my 2003 1500, thank you for the explanation. I’m hoping to also have the connections on the truck since it’s not a fog light ready truck.
I don't think it works for our trucks the app doesn't have options for us
Sorry but the app won't work on a 03 as Itz Potater stated. 06 and up only.
I just plugged mine in with the lights, harness and new headlight switch and everything worked great no need for anything fancy so try that first
Well done Sir. In the middle of building a 04 quad cab 4x4 as I type. I am going to have to do this exact same install and set up. Thank you for your time and effort.
You're welcome and thanks brother! Glad it helped. 🙂
Friggin awesome tutorial video! I have an ‘09 3500 mega cab that I want to add fog lights to👍
Thanks man!
Great video brother, you answered what I was thinking, just baught a 2007 3500 crew cab cab and chassis duelly truck. My first dodge,
Thanks brother and thanks for watching!
Bought my 07 chassis cab new off the lot with 14 miles on her now 260k still pulling 5 days a week.
I'd guess the cops would flag you down if they were installed reverse. cross-eyed. I am afraid I'll have to look elswhere for my 2004 Dodge Ram. the truck has such low milage(47,700) I am willing to bend over backwards for it with mods! but 2004 model the cargo light is not a separate button it is on the finger slide roller with the interior lighting. :(
Kudos brother! Just did your complete install today. Very helpful video! Thanks!
You're welcome brother!
Working thanks appreciate video took me lol bit. Had to use my brother phone and retract my old email down but it worked.
You're welcome
Did a great job looks good can't wait till I finish working on my build with my 2002 dodge ram 1500. Definitely cheaper
Yes sir and thanks brother! Hope your build turns out to what you want!
How did it work out I can't seem to get a definite opinion to get mine to work after I did everything except for enable the module but nothing supports our trucks
thanks to you i have oem fogs in my slt. Thanks!!!
Your welcome
Thanks for sharing this video... It was a big help!
You're welcome!
I’m really wanting to add dogs to my tradesmen. This seems to be the solution
Make sure u have the plug in on driver side inside the bumper just above the foglight hole.
Thanks AWESOME VIDEO, blessings take care.
You're welcome!
The mechanical wizard right here!!! Great video brother!!
Thanks brother!
Those look good I like the obd2 alpha thing really like the headlights too
The obd alfa is a game changer!
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 yeah I'm going to have to look into it thanks for the video and info
Welcome!
I wish this app worked on Apple iOS! Need to check to see if this is why mine aren’t working. Never have ever since I bought it from previous owner.
Check to see if you have power going to the plug at the foglights and work your way back. Could be bad switch or tipm. Or like you're thinking........may not be activated. You never know what a previous owner has done.
Nice truck man!
I'm going to try that for my 2008 1500. I wonder if that will program key fobs to open the doors and also play with the tire pressure monitoring system?
Thanks brother! Not sure about the key fob but it should have a option for the tire monitoring system
Great info sir .... I have a obdlink mx and not mx plus and i had no idea that i could even use these type of scan tools for this but thanks to you bro you saved me a $100 plus and a trip to the dealer i was able to download the app that you recommended and i have my fogs lights up and active on my 2012 Dodge Challenger thanks thanks thanks thanks man.... lolol great tutorial by the way...
You're welcome sir. Thanks for watching
Question, that OBDII Link can you reconfigure the tipm? I put new bulbs in my headlights and the tipm shut them off after flashing for a bit.
I'm not sure on that. You can unhook your battery cables (on both batteries if you drive a diesel) and tie the negative and positive together and turn the ignition on and leave it over night to drain all the capacitors. If that doesn't work you can get dodge to reprogram it or you can pull the tipm out and send it to mak's tipm rebuilders and they can fix it and you can get them to go ahead while they have it and put a better fuel relay in so you don't have the common problem of that going out in the future.
Finally a video of someone doing this 🙏🏼🙏🏼 been looking for at least 2 years
Hope it helps!
Just installed some fogs with DRLs and turn signal on my Ram 2005 2500. Mine did not work. Bummer! Guess I may have to go to the 'stealer' to program it I guess. Do they have a OBDLink MX + for 2005? Thx.
Mx+ will work on your truck but the app you need to program won't. You will have to visit the stealer.
Good detail nice video
Thanks brother!
Awesome video brother, love the explanation and commentary. I have an 04 1500 hemi and I notice what looked like fog like wiring under the bumper. Great to know I can actually put some it. Keep up the good work 🤙🏾
Thanks brother and thanks for watching. Some trucks you don't have to enable the foglight feature like I did at the end. Fingers crossed for ya!
The 02-05 rams are plug in play, 06 and up you have to programming done
That is one purdy looking truck you have there!. Do you belong to the Turbo Diesel Registry? I bought a neighbor's 2004 1500 SLT that didn't have fogs. I did locate both a fog light fuse & relay in the fuse & relay center under the hood, & they already have power. You answered a lot of questions I had, & gave a head's up on the need for the computer to be programmed. Thanks again.
Thanks and your welcome. No I don't belong to the TDR.
Did you end up needing to program it? I’ve heard that the older 3rd gens don’t require the computer reprogramming.
Yea I had to program it. Some do and some don't need it.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 I’ve got a 03 and getting the parts in the mail tomorrow. Hopefully I won’t have to program
You might get lucky. 🤞
Does that obdlink hook up to a 2005 dodge ram 1500 ? Trying to do the same thing what you did
Only works for 06 and up.
So, I went through the entire process and it said the procedure was completed but unknown. I’m wondering if I did something wrong?
Make sure you are doing the configuration and not just a test. Also let the truck set 5 min after you program it to make sure it took. Go make and sandwich and then come back to see if you have working lights.
I was reading the website because it still didn’t work and it says that your supposed to have an activation code for it. Did you have to use an activation code after buying the app?
No I didn't. What model truck u have?
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 I have a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500
That makes no sense at all. When I get off of work I will look at their website and try to make some sense out of it.
I have n 08 1500 what lights do you have on your truck, can u comment the link. I want those on mines. The video was great by the way. The break down of everything was helpful thank you.
Hey brother links to everything I used is in the description.
Hello, this is a good video. I have a question. I have a 2003 Ram ST model. I can't seem to locate the harness connector. I thought i did but that was a cruise control servo 4 pin connector. That is another upgrade mod I plan to work on. Do you know if the ST model came with that connector? Or how it should be installed?
The connector should be mounted on the inside bumper on the driver side. It will be made in with the wiring harness. It should lead straight to the totally integrated power module
What’s the part number to the wiring harness ?
Link is in the description.
Great video!
Thanks!
great video, did you have to use a different wire harness when you installed the fog light switch, i'm trying to do. the same thing
Yes go look in the description and you will see a link for everything I used for this install. Thanks for watching!
So do you need to go thru the procces with the obd2 port or if you just wore everything can you have fog lights without worrying about the indicator on dash
If you wire it all up and the indicator shows up in the instrument cluster then your foglights will work. In it doesn't show up then your foglights won't work. So no indicator no lights. Now you might be one of the lucky ones and your foglight function was turned on when it was being programed during assembly.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 awesome, thank you so much
i have a 2009 ram 1500 that has no fog lights and im putting some on. where do i connect the foglight harness to the connector inside the cabin? im looking for a harness but the fog light harness is the only one that shows up
Inside the bumper
@@isolateddieselperformance3261I don’t have it. Might have to solder it to the headlight wires or something
Don't do that. That can cause serious problems. Your connection might be in a different place because you have a 4th gen truck. Worse case you can run it with a toggle switch if that's a route you're willing to take. Wiring it to your headlights can cause problems with your integrated power module.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 oh i did not know that. I think ive seen people do that before but with light bars so i was thinking of doing that,.
In the beginning you mentioned you purchased the wiring kit. Where does it plug up to exactly? Did your truck already come pre wired? Also, since you got the switch with the fog light control, when you replaced it with your original one, did you have to add any wires or did it use the original plug?
Yes most trucks come pre-wired because they don't want to make different harnesses for every different trim package they make. The wiring kit i bought has 3 plugs and 2 of them will plug into the foglights and the 3rd plug will plug into the factory foglight plug mounted on the driver inside bumper. Original plug will plug straight up to the headlight switch with foglight function without extra wires.
Michael if you ever changed the headlight or turn signal bulbs you will notice another wire on the driver's side which is for the fog lights.
Good video 👍🏼
Thanks!
Where did you order this kit? Great video.Thank you.
Links to where I got everything is in the description.
Debating so hard to either get these or get a nice high quality $100-$200 led bulb for fogs man
Mine are still performing strong and look great. Hope that helps you with your decision.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 I seen a 3rd gen with them. They are strong. But the throw flood light. So that’s why I wanted led bulbs. I appreciate it brother !!! 🤙🏼
Did your fog light flushed all the way to the plastic? Cause mine has alot of gap between the foglight and the plastic cover
No and you don't want it touching the plastic. About ¹/⁴ in gap on top and about ¹/² gap on bottom.
You gave me a good suggestion going factory direct on the light switch inside. You said that some trucks come pre wired for the fogl light system , I started looking intoit ,i only found one connector that on driver side by the fuse box is that it? one connector for both side?
The connector will be mounted inside the driver side bumper just above and to the left of the foglight hole. That one plug will provide power for both lights. I have a link to everything you will need in the description to make it all work.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 yes I saw some of them. I need tha app name from there going to follow your video step by step how you did it. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
You're welcome. I just learned that the obd2 and app only works with Android devices. Dosen't work with iPhone. I would have mentioned that in the video if I would have known that. Another viewer had to share that info with me.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 Ohhh ok, WELL THANKS AGAIN.
I have an 07 ram 2500 did everything on the video but the obd2 reader app looks way different than the video. Its a obdlinkmx+ but cannot fide the option to access the body computer. Any suggestions would be appreciated
Here's the link to the app you need. Is this the app you downloaded???

@@isolateddieselperformance3261 ty. I think i have another issue-sorry for being a pain. I now have the fog light icon on the dash cluster but lights don't come on
Sweet
Thanks!
Would you be able to just wire in the fog lights and change your switch and they work? Or do you have to have that OBD plug to change the computer
Some people get lucky and the fog lights work and some like myself have to activate them
Thanks for the reply!!
Great video sir I like the way you talk
What headlights are those? Great video by the way.
Thanks brother. Here's a link for the headlights.

17:01 do I need to get the new switch for it to work? Or can I just plug it in under the truck and will it work.
You have to have a switch that has the foglight function.
Ok, thank you. You did a great job explaining everything in the video👍🏼
Can you install the led fog and use it without getting the foglight switch? Would it turn on with just the stock?
If your switch has the foglight function you won't have to change it but if it doesn't than you will need a new switch.
Ahh ok thankyou
Nice video, I have questions before I order myself a fog lights, do these fog light is plug and play ? Since my light switch don’t have the pull thing like the one that come from factory. Do I have to do custom light switch where I have to drill a hole on panel dashboard where the light switch is at to install a light button specifically only for fog lights ?
You can add a factory switch like I did or a aftermarket switch. They are plug and play as long as you add a switch and the wiring to connect them.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 I own 2 rams , one is 2004 with fog lights that I can turn them on by rotating the switch to low beam and pull outward. And other is 06, without fog lights with no switch light pull outward mechanism. I bought the fog lights, harness, bezel and planning to install them this weekend. Hoping the headlight can turn on low beam on and both low and high beam on without having log light on when I don’t need them on without modifying the original switch light
Just get you a new headlight switch the the foglight function. Thats what I had to do
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 ahh, I see what you mean. Yeah I will order an oem headlight switch that have push button with fog light icon on it for replacement of my non fog light headlight switch
Thats the ticket brother! Don't forget you might have to activate them if not already done.
I followed this video step by step what do I do if the fog lights don't come on???
Did you follow the steps at the end of the video to activate them?
Yes I did and they still don't turn on
What year model is your truck?
I get the fog light configuration indicator light but the lights won't come on
Oh ok. You have a problem somewhere in the wiring would be my guess. Make sure you got the Jumper harness that connects the foglights fully plugged in to the connector on the driver side inside bumper. You really got to push it in good. For some reason it's always a really tight fit at that plug in. It took a lot of force to plug mine in.
Your fog lights stayed on with your hi beams!!??
You can program it to stay on or off with high beams. If yours stayed on you will need to program them to cut off
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 Id like them to stay on that obdMX+ is what i need to reprogram that?
@mikeloomis2091 yes you will need that to do it as long as your truck is a 2006 or newer. You will also need the app
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 any chance you can help me with the OBDlink and AlfaOBD software I just purchased it I want my fog lights to stay on with my high beams? I follwed your lead thorough this video but I cant find the parameters for keeping the fog lights on with the hibeams? Thanks for any help you may offer! Love your channel! I too have an 08 Dodge Ram 2500 6.7
One problem my headlight switch harness will not fit the switch you are using. The adapter is different on my 06. Its rectangular in shape not square. And definitely has more than 4 pins.
That doesn't make sense. I would call the dealership and give them your vin number and find out what's different about your truck. 03 to 09 diesel models and 02 to 08 gas models should all be the same
Would you happen to have a link or the part number for the bezels? The ones I'm looking at on Amazon have horrible reviews about not fitting
Link to the ones I got are in the description.
Do you have to have the OBD thing? Is that how you get the computer to make the lights work?
Yes you do and you also need the app.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 Okay thanks, I have an iphone so before I think about attempting this project I'm making sure I will be able to have access to everything I'll need. I have no idea what the app is called for iOS.
I've heard it works with iPhone now but don't hold me to it.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 Ya I heard that too but am not sure what the app is called that is supposedly compatible with it. They upped the price of the obdlink mx+ to $140 on Amazon so I’m assuming maybe they made the app free and added the $50 or whatever to the device itself.
Hey i have an 04 1500 and i downloaded that app and everything but in the settings it doesnt have an 04 option. Do you know another way i can activate my lights?
You're right I went to the app and nothing below 2006. Sorry about that. I didn't realize that! Download the app that came with the obdmx and see if it has any options. That app should go as low as 1997. You could run a toggle switch or let the dealer activate them. I changed the thumb nail on the video and hopefully people with 05 and older can find a different solution! Again sorry brother!
What headlights are they? Those are nice. Are they good replacements?

Hi, great video..your a wizard finding out how to do that programming. So I'm in the same boat. I have a non-fog light 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo. I noticed it has the wiring( lumes) plugs up underneath the fender for fog lights. I purchased new OEM type fog lights, and the new switch, and relay. It all went together and installed easily. But lights don't work. I researched this and it appears that the computer needs (woken up) programming to let it know it has fog lights? You have any thoughts...is there a OBDII that will work for me? Thank you
Yes the same obd2 I have and the alpha app that cost $50 for lifetime access on your Google account will work for 2005 and newer jeeps. Links are in the description but the app dosen't work with iPhone. Android devices only phone tablet whatever you have.
I have android..much thanks...your a good man!!!
I try to be. Thanks for watching!

Where did you buy your fog lights?

Where did you get the fog light bezels from? What company made them?
Links to all products are in the description and the exact same place i bought mine.
I just installed my fog lights and switch. Download the app but it doesn't look like the one your using. I hooked up the module and finally got the Bluetooth to work, but there are no settings like you show, when I download the app it didn't say anything about buying any extras it downloaded. There are no selections for the 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 that even matches what you show, if I can't get it to work and I'm willing to pay for the extra features but I can't find it. Guess I'll call them and see what's up but if I can't use this do do what I need I'll just go to the dealer and pay them, less aggravation for me.
Did you download this app?
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.AlfaOBD.AlfaOBD
Thanks I wish they would put that in their directions, I put the foglights and wiring harness and changed out the switch in about 40min. then for over an hour I fulled around trying to find the settings. Once I download this app and pay for it do I just use it once I connect the module or do I need to go through the OBDMX+ app. Thanks for answering this question I appreciate it sir. Thanks again.
You don't need the app that came with the obdmx+. Till this day I've not downloaded the app that came with the obdmx+. You just need the alfa app that you pay for. Yea it cost a few bucks but you will have it for life on any android device you will ever on and you can make changes to stuff. If you decide to add led lights power seats etc or anything you can activate them. You can do injector kill test and more.
Finally got them to work took four tries but they are working now. Just got to put the bezels in when they get here next week. Thanks for your help your video was a big help and thanks for the link to the right app.
Glad you got them to work.
Will your headlights still turn on without the computer stuff
Yes
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 so I can install the fog lights and the new controll thing next to the steering wheel and not have to go through the setup process on the phone to enable them?
You might have to or you might not. Some trucks come from factory already enabled and some don't.
Good looking truck
Any idea if that OBD Module can enable the high idle on a Cummins (I think it’s PTO) ?
You should be able to under "PTO and idle up". I've not tried it because my tuner allows me to enable that feature.
AWSOME, thanks alot man! Love the videos on the Dodge…keep ‘‘em coming!
Thanks man!
Hey Bud, exactly what software do you use for this? I’ve read a bit on AlphaOBD but not sure if that’s what I need. Wanting to do your fog light mod as well as engage my high idle/pto option. Does it work with apple or just windows/android? Any links would be AWSOME…thanks again man!

I just tried this right now on my 2012 ram and we shall see ! I’m waiting the 5 mins right now lol😅
Did it work?
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 it turned it on! So I did more research & my Ram doesn’t have the pin out harness from the TIPM this is a thing that needs to be had & you can probably source it from MOD2 on the Ramforumz if someone else needs it. And the. You add the 2 pins into the TIPM and a ground and then you can use the jumper harness to go to your fog lights. As of right now I turned on the Fog light through ALFAOBD with the MX + all through the links you have…. It really helped ! So I have the headlight switch with the fog light button and now it lights up on the cluster when I turn it on. However I don’t know if it’s just me or if the WIN module is going bad but now intermittently the truck doesn’t want to crank. It just clicks
Hey Isolated I have the 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 which was the last year for that particular generation of ram trucks. Do you still have those goofy looking tail lights that I hate so much or did you find some nice aftermarket ones. Everybody loves the chrome look whereas I love the black look with my red ram.
Yea I put some aftermarket tail lights in. I made a video of it. They are spyder brand.
I just installed everything do I need the obd2 for it to work ?
See if they will come on. If not then yes you will need the obd2 or you can take it to the dealer and they can turn them on.
Great video! Did those plastic ties come with the kit?
Yes sir!
Hey i have a 07 ram and i dont have the wiring for the foglights do u have a link where i could get them ?
Link to the harness i used is in the description. Dose your truck have the factory plug in for the foglights?
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 only 1 side has it
Thats perfect! Use the harnesses in the link. It plugs into the driver side and controls both foglights.
Wtf!! Anyone know why the fog lights are now triggering my backup camera on my aftermarket stereo??? I swear nothings easy on this truck
How long have you had the foglights in before it started doing this?
Hey man I did everything correctly, the fog light indicator turns on but my fog lights dont turn on, i think it might be the factory fog light plug you mentioned, is there anywhere i can buy it? Or maybe its some other reason they're not turning on
Where the factory plug and the new harnesses you installed is a bear to plug in all the way. You really got to push hard so make sure it's plugged in all the way. Clean your factory plug also. If still doesn't work take a test light and make sure you're getting power to where it plugs in. Again you really got to press hard to plug in all the way. Hope this helps!
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 I will try that thank you
Your welcome
I'm about to do this to my 03. Hope I don't have to enable it.
Hopefully you got one thats already enabled.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 they work. I don't have a indicator on the dash but the lights worked. Probably because my truck is a bit older. Great video man it helped me out a bit.

Does the OBDLINK work on a 04 1500 STL?
I looked and can't seem to find 04 1500. 06 and newer was all that showed up
Could this OBD link fix my Headlight situation?
Whats your situation?
Only one headlight works. No low beams, high beams works but just the right side. Changed the bulbs, and changed wiring with no pigtails but still nothing.
Sounds like you have a problem with the dimmer switch. If you have replaced that already then you need to take a look at the totally integrated power module or the instrument cluster.

@@isolateddieselperformance3261 thanks.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 ordered same one as you just got have my brother who’s only one with android
Sucks it doesn't work with all devices.
What head lights did you install?
AlphaRex USA 880538 Nova Series Projector Headlights fits Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, 3500 Clear www.amazon.com/dp/B08KXWVKMR/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_DXT8JM594G53V8W6V3DG?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Is the obd needed for this or no?
If you activate it yes. You might be one of the lucky ones and have a truck thats already activated. Last option is install everything and take it to the dealer to get it activated.
I got a 2004 ram 1500 with no existing wiring for fog lights and im looking to get my foglights setup, where does the wiring harness plug into on the truck?
On the driver side inside the bumper just above where the foglight will plug in.
Will that fit on a 2010 ram 4500
The foglights won't fit your truck but the obd reader will work on your truck. You will need foglights for your year model.
120$ for the obd link and 50$ for the app. Dealer woulda been quicker and cheaper. My mistake
Dealer wanted $160 and I only paid $99 for the obd and $50 for the app. In the future I won't have to see the dealership if I decide to do more add ons. If you ever have a short you can disable the function till you figure out the problem or do injector test among so many other things. I don't consider it a mistake but if you don't work on your own vehicles than yes it may be a waste of money.
Man. The light on the dash lights up but fog lights don’t work. Anyone have this happen?
Make sure you have everything plugged in all the way. Where the new harness and the factory harness plug in at is tough to plug in all the way. Will take some force sometimes. Other than that you may need to start testing for power at each plug in and trace from there
Is the alfa app still working? I have to program my truck for fogs but when I read the comments on the play store supposedly lately it hasn't been working lately so idk if I should spend the money on the app.
So far it is but I've not done a update in a while. I will try to check in the next day or so. Building a shop has took up most of my time off work.
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 ok thank you!
Just received my mx old and bought the alfaobd, followed your video and it worked! Thanks again!
Good deal! Sorry I didn't get to check that for you yet. Construction at my house is working me to death plus working 70 hrs a week at work. Glad the video helped.
No worries, I know how busy life gets!!! Good luck on the construction! I was also able to program new tire size for speedometer as well with the same app! It's well worth it!
Will this work with a 2008 DoDGe Ram 1500?
Yes it will. Need android device to use the alfa app for the obdmx+. IPhone dosen't support the app
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 Thank you sir
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
@@isolateddieselperformance3261 I was hesitant because on their website it doesn’t say my truck is “supported” but It also didn’t say it wasn’t supported. I took a risk and it worked just fine. Thanks again. You earned a sub. Now I need those headlights of yours ? Recommend ?
Thanks for the sub and thanks for watching! I love the headlights. If you get them just make sure you ajust them properly for the best visibility. I've not had any problems with them except they are to expensive.
