What did you do to your TRX today?

Installed my Retrax Powertrax tonneau cover. Does anyone know how to program the powertrax to be controlled by the truck's visor buttons? I could have sworn I saw someone say they did it.

I would assume you follow the same procedure with a garage remote but instead use the Retrax remote. Its just copying the signal.

Super easy. I programmed the #2 button to open and #3 to close the cover. Just hold your bed remote next to your visor button and press them both at the same time.

Thank you, I figured this out earlier after opening the led housing looking for a programing module. Lol
 
***Sorry, wanted to add another cool accessory/modification to share but the answer is.. ***

Nothing. I had been planning for an OEM radiator replacement.

Instead another "TRX" hour on the phone today - continuing efforts to drive it once again.

It's been sitting at the dealership awaiting a replacement radiator for 3 weeks and in totality about to cross the AZ Lemon Law boundary. Third visit related to coolant odor which became a radiator failure/leak (after two apathetic attempts to diagnose it prior, Tech discounting that "all TRX' smell like that under the hood"). Part was finally shipped from Supplier to Stellantis CA warehouse, then to my AZ dealer yesterday (2 weeks late). Correct box... but someone had replaced contents with a 6cyl radiator and added the accompanying (2nd) label. Unbelievable chain of events and apathy (including RAM Cares who self-escalated my case to a RC District Specialist. Also awaiting a RC Supervisor call re: the first rep. who mysteriously closed my first case #/never followed-up.. and unknowingly c-blocked this part delay from escalating to another team (per protocol only can be involved when it's 5 days+ beyond eta). I literally have a file 1/2" thick so far including rental car contracts (paid under the warranty claim) and every call/convo/email related (which until recently by my initiative (as the dealership consistently didn't provide updates (more delays/etc). Even RC Specialist and the Dir. of Service (who self-initiated being the point person last week/great solo effort providing daily updates and disclosure seem shocked by the systemic stack of incompetence and indifference.

Have you ever loved a vehicle so much, purchased it outright/plans never to sell it... but lost all faith in the marque and personnel behind it from a two-month saga?

...all over a $167 part.

01/31 update: Part shipped again to Stellantis (from supplier) distribution center. Instead of California (next day truck), it's coming from Illinois-Stellantis via UPS-Ground (so much for priority/escalations by Dealer/RAM Cares)... now 02/07, which qualifies for AZ Lemon Law.
🍋 🦖 Just more for the folder which chronicles 13 sent emails (10 asking for updates when provided none and after ETA dates passed by/6 copying Dealer Customer Service Specialist who never followed-up (despite telling her I can't put 10/10 on CSI surveys/also leaving a message for her to please call me).

Finished the install of my AWE 0fg exhaust. Make a note, unless you're a very lucky person, you'll really want to loosen the CAT to exhaust manifold ball flange before trying to get everything aligned otherwise the 1st passenger side pipe that attaches to the CAT will most likely push the 180 tech can into the passenger side frame rail. It will take some adjustment/twisting of that CAT ball flange to make room for those big 180 anti-drone cans.
 
how long did it take? Looks great! Have the dogs already and am debating the light bar

Around 3 hours, the worst part was removing the 3 bolts that hold the bumper, one of the is right in front of the shocks and doesn’t have much space to work with! Other than that it’s not difficult, I just followed the YouTube video instruction
 
Changed the cabin air filter. Fellow 2021 owners, if you haven’t already done it, it’s probably time. Yuck.

Mopar PN 68406048AA. Plenty of generics on Amazon too.

I tried to check mine the other day, but couldn’t quite figure out how to unlatch the glove box cable. I didn’t want to break it, so I just gave up and figured I’d try another day. What’s the secret to getting it unlatched?

Don’t even need to mess with the cable. I just followed this guy’s lead and left it in place. It’s pretty easy to reach.

 
Ok, just yanked my glove box out and checked my filter. Apparently there’s a new part number, maybe it’s the MY2022 change (I recall that they added a Hepa filter or something). The new part number is 68548579AA. In the link below, it shows that this replaces the 68406048AA (or AB) part number.

But no UV light filter for us!
 
Changed the oil for the 3rd time. Funny my wife kept telling me why so soon again (changed at 800, 4000, 8k today). Then I showed her the catch can and the oil color and she quickly told me (good point).
