This is a guide that was mostly inspired by users on a RAM forum that had luck doing this mod. Please use the information in the guide for reference. I do not take any responsibility for any damage that may occur and remember that this may not work for everyone based on various option packages. With that out of the way, on to the install guide.
This was installed on a 2014 Limited. I am not sure this work with Laredos without extra wiring as they never came with automatic headlights from the factory. On the Limited, the wiring is present.
Step 1: Order a new mirror. I used part number 68144050AD. I found mine on ebay for $51 dollars. There are plenty more around. Try to look up parts that are within your model year for this to work. A new lower mirror cover is needed, I will need to find the part number for it but it was $17.10 at the dealer.
EDIT: This might be it 1YW14DX9AC
EDIT 2: This is the one I got 68306588AA though the other part may work too.
Step 2: Remove the top cover. It is clipped into the lower cover. Spread the lower cover and it should come out with minimal resistance.
Step 3: Remove mirror and lower cover. In my case it was easier to remove the mirror and cover at the same time. Hold the mirror and cover and twist it in either direction to release. Remove the cover and cable after you remove the mirror.
Step 4: Install the new mirror. Connect the plug then place the mirror on the mount flat and turned roughly 45 degrees. Twist back into position. You can now put the new lower cover back on. The old top cover can be reused.
Step 5: Programming. I used AlfaOBD to make the changes. Connect to the BCM and make the following configuration changes:
Auto Highbeam
Select “yes”
Interior EC Mirror Present
Select“yes”
Smart Beam Present (AHBM)
Select “yes"
Auto High Beam Module Location
Select “ECC_AHBM"
Auto High Beam CSM
Select “yes”
Step 6: Reset the radio. This is not required but it will make the menu items appear immediately instead of waiting for multiple key cycles. No settings are erased in this. Be careful not to select the factory reset option.
Hold the temperature buttons for the driver side for about 10 seconds to get into the engineering menu.
Scroll until you find "Reset radio."
Select "Yes"
Step 7: Enable the Option by going to Controls > Settings > Lights. Check the "Auto Dim High Beams" option.
Step 8: All done. You will see the following in the EVIC when you flip on your high beams.
Overall a very simple install that involves replacing the rearview mirror. Make sure the area in front of the sensor is clean and clear. I had to move a car wash pass in my case as that was in the way of the sensor.
For AlfaOBD I am using the OBDLink MX Bluetooth adapter with a Surface Pro 4. There is also an Android app available.
