Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product, does its job.

Instructions > Instructions are lacking when it comes to specific step by step procedures. This turned 10-15 minutes of work into 1-2 hours. I have a Tradesman RAM 2500 from 2021. I took a chance as some reviews mentioned the product runs on newer 2500s and yes it does run on 2021 RAM 2500s. Pros: very easy to install. (PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!) It is 10-15 minutes work.1. Unscrew the lower plastic panel from the driver's side.2. Turn off the light switch to access the blue wire junction box. (Look at the picture) 3. Locate the cable behind the start/stop button below.4. Disconnect this cable and plug in the supplied Y-cable. (half done) 5. Before plugging in the little black box that comes with the package, grab your laptop and follow the instructions to plug the little black box into your laptop's USB port. You need to download the iDataLink software and recognize the device.6. You don't have to register, it will automatically recognize and register you in the software.7. Look for the yellow connect button to update the firmware. Once the firmware has been updated,8 disconnect the laptop from the laptop and connect the small black box to your RAM.9. CONNECT ALL WIRES (white, blue and black) in this order. (FOLLOW START/STOP procedure).10. The green LED on the small black box will blink continuously for TWO SECONDS. Ready! Cons: The instruction manual they provide doesn't give any details. Their website to get support or information is VERY SIMPLE. Most of the frustrations of others who have tried this product can be resolved if they have a Q&A forum. Another great feature in the iDataLink software, you can customize some of the features.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Flamboyant
