Carbyte (DFM disabler for 2024) limited giveaway

It appears the PowerStep module is only using the OBD port for power, so connecting it in parallel with Carbyte should not cause any issues.

In fact, Carbyte can work alongside many different OBD connected devices through a splitter (Zee921, another user on this forum, is using it alongside dash cams). The only exceptions are devices using the OBD port to communicate with the truck's systems -- other OBD connected disablers, OBD scanners, and OBD vehicle trackers will all interfere with Carbyte’s function.


You only need to install the latest version, as each update includes all of the previous improvements.

If using an OBD splitter, will the Carbyte unit conflict with the Banks Pedal Monster unit since it also requires a connection to the OBD? Banks was able to confirm no conflict with the Range RA007 DFM disabler since it plugs directly to the ECM, however they were not 100% sure of with the Carbyte. Thank you.

So for any one else waiting on an answer to my compatibility question between the Pedal Monster and Carbyte/OBDLink. The company DMd me saying it might be compatible because the type of data being transmitted etc are different but they cannot guarantee it being issue free.

They are planning on testing it internally sometime in the future but asked if I’d be willing to test it myself if were to provide me a complimentary Carbyte unit. I thanked them and let them know I already own and use their device however I didn’t want to risk testing it together with the Pedal Monster since my truck was still under warranty. GM is notorious for using any reason possible to void the new truck warranty especially if codes were to pop up all over the place.

I plan on discontinuing the use of the Carbyte unit and will be reinstalling the Range RA007 unit to use with the Banks Pedal Monster since both Range and Banks confirmed there would be no conflict. I may switch back when Carbyte has fully tested and confirmed compatibility.
That’s it folks! Safe driving to all.
