    I just ordered a replacement key fob from the dealer. I will have it in a few days. I have the Alpha OBD app. I also read on here that I need a 4 digit pin from the dealer to enter into the Alpha app.

    When reading the Alpha info on what to do, it seems a little scary.

    Has anyone done this on the Alpha for a 2012?

    I noticed 2 areas of question. It gives me a choice of "Wireless Control Module" My2011-12 non-powernet var.1 and a var.2. Both seem to be the same, which should I use?

    Also under "Program Ignition Keys or Key Fobs", it mentions I must run "ELV Replaced" or "ESCL Replaced". Not sure what they are, I don't think I need to do that, just guessing. And the other is I must run "PEM Replaced" to transfer new key info from "WCM" to "PEM.

    Can anybody step me though this or should I just ante up and pay the dealer?

    I think you ordering it from the Dealer they would program it for you.

    @Oil Stain ,You might want to post up on https://www.ramforum.com/threads/alfaobd.123982/. I know on my 2014, I was able to pull my own pin # and programming was pretty straight forward. I looked at your MY and it doesn't have pin pulling. You could get Chrysler Pin Pull from the app store to get pin #. I'd see what dealer will charge and maybe check with local locksmiths. Good luck and keep us posted.
