I have a few NOOB questions about adding the remote start feature to a basic 2020 Ram 2500 Tradesman. Just an FYI - At this point, I have not performed any mods with the OBD at all.
I called my local dealership and they are willing to activate a fob that I bring in (even if the fob I bring in has the remote start and tailgate option on it) for $65. They said they would activate the remote to lock/unlock and start the truck after they received a PIN code from Ram, but since I wasn't buying the fob from them, they would make no guarantees, but it should work if it is an OEM fob. So here come the questions -
Can I just get the dealership to activate the fob first, before performing any mods - such as wiring the sensor from the hood latch to the BCM and manipulating the BCM with the AlfaOBD method? Or do I need to have the wiring completed and modify the options with the AlfaOBD before the dealership activates the remote?
