    Sounds like you need the SGM bypassed....

    2018 needs the serial gateway module bypassed (it blocks OBD-II port messages), speak with PPEI about how to do that is probably your best bet.

    Edit: Funny Les I think we posted at exactly the same time.

    If you Google 'Dodge SGW bypass' you'll see there is people selling harnesses that bypass this module and allow you direct access to the CAN bus. It is a common issue on all Dodge, Chrysler and Jeep vehicles from late 2017.

    Layout wise no, but they are digitally signed using a different key so on a stock ECM you would not be able to flash in a 2018 file to an earlier ECM.

    Ok I got the cable and put it in. Now the flash goes to 99% and stops and gives 0540 code. Any ideas?

    That indicates the ECM still has the anti-tuning security active.
    You probably need to be talking with PPEI to make sure your Autocal (I'm assuming that is what you have) is running the newer releases that will disable that security for you.
    The software updates are posted here if you wanted to try yourself:
