I have a 2012 - 1500 big horn edition and am looking at getting the integrated brake controller and installing myself. I was told by a local dodge dealer that once installed that the on-board computer has to be programmed to recognize it.

Is this true or are they trying to scam more money?

 

Computer has to be flashed to recognize it.

 

Can that be done with an OBD2 device?

 

I have no idea on that.

 

i installed the brake controller myself on my 2014 took about 45 minutes but i had to take it to dodge for them to upload the software takes about 30 minutes.
