Ive been trying to get my power inverter to work and track down the issue. My inverter is only getting 6v at the inverter on the inverter status line. Its 6v whether or not something is plugged in. I thought the dash plug had a switch in it that when you plugged something in would send the full 12v to the inverter telling it to turn on?

2011 dodge ram 3500 cab/chassis model So recently took truck in. I bought a brand new TCM and had it installed and programmed back on the truck. This was because of a bunch of codes popping on the truck. It fixed them all except one and we're at a loss here now. Code still popping is U1437. This code is TCM related. It pops up as "U1437 IMPLAUSIBLE INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE MESSAGE RECEIVED". Cool so I replaced the air temp sensor. Didn't remove the code. Did a little more research on that... Read more

I have a 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7L V8 engine, truck has about 118k miles on it, recently took to a shop for a cylinder 3 misfire and was told I need a new long block due to cam shaft degrading with potential metal shavings. Quoted at $12k, is this an outrageous amount of money for this repair? Any work arounds? In the Denver area considering looking for any mechanics who can do this for cheaper if it really is needed. Gonna take to another shop for a 2nd opinion as well, the truck drives fine... Read more

Hello all. This is a 2020 Ram 3500 6.7 4X4 and i had the left front bearing go out. It was making some noise and i jacked it up and spun the wheel and i could hear the bearings making a grinding noise. BUT, i could also hear some clanking noise but could not tell where it was coming from. So i lifted the right one up and spun it and no noise came out. I am replacing both front hubs for sure as it has a lot of miles on it. So i got the left hub off and then was just the axel and u joint... Read more

So, I got this new 2020 PW from the dealer. I’m at 9800km or 6200 miles on it... still pretty new! There’s this clunking noise from time to time. 1st time at dealer, changed the links. Drove it off and the clunk was still there. Brought it in yesterday for his 1st oil change and evaluation into the clunk. They suspected the stabilizer bar as they said there was bulletin from Dodge. Still clunks. Got the head mechanic to test drive it. He agreed its still clunking while driving and... Read more

Hello - Hoping to get some help! Our 2018 Ram 1500 had ~45K miles our UConnect screen looks like it is melting behind the touchscreen. It is affecting the way the radio works as well as the navigation. Has anyone been able to get their dealer to repair this or is there a recall on this? It apppears this is a known issue that Ram should own up to. Apart from the sealer has anyone replaced the screen? Thanks!

So today I attempted the update on my 2013 Ram with the 8.4 u connect due to constantly getting a vehicle phone needs service pop up. Uconnects page is not popping up the enter vin to check for update so I called u connect and it was due for a update. My current version was 18.13.17 and they told me I needed 18.45.01 but wouldn't send me the file. I downloaded the file from a discussion on here to my thumb drive. The system makes it all the way through the download till it gets to the Final... Read more

Hey everyone. I’m new here and have had my 23 ram 1500 for a few months. This has only happened two times ever and coincidentally at the same spot waiting at a stop light. I always push my start stop button so it was off and the vehicle was not turning off while stopped. Sometimes when waiting at this light people try to come in and take over a spot so often times I am having to accelerate quick. Again I do this same drive 3 days a week so out of the hundreds of times it’s happened two... Read more

I've asked on the 3rd gen section of the forum as well because I've seen this wheel advertised as being OEM for 2002-2009 and as being OEM for a whole variety of 4th gen Ram 1500's but what I have not seen is any evidence that it actually exists, other than the same 4 product photos that retailers have. Before anyone says "why don't you call the manufacturer" - that's the thing, I have. That wheel is advertised all over the internet and the manufacturer listed is Road Ready Wheels... Read more

My 12 laramie has a aluminum driveshaft but my neighbors 18 "base" ram (but still has a hemi) has a steel driveshaft... why do rams feature different types of driveshafts? Does it have something to do for rear end gear ratios and noise?

This is pretty simple DIY but I figure I would make one in case anyone was having trouble finding it or replacing it. Time: 10-15min Cost: $6-$15 depending on where you buy it Tools: Flat Head Screw Driver Needle Nose Pliers LOCATION: Attached to the Oil Filler on the side Step 1: Remove Air filter box to have better access to the PCV valve Step 2: remove the hose attached to it by just pulling on it towards the firewall if it's pretty stuck on there you can use the...
