Disappointed that Ram is only covering 60%
By klassensok
I have owned Ram trucks for 14 years and never had a single major issue. In June, I purchased a 2023 Ram Limited with only 3,000 miles—a beautiful truck with amazing features and ride comfort. But in the last month, the premium leather dash began delaminating and pulling back . I have never used harsh chemicals on it—only a damp microfiber cloth. I took it to the dealer, and they only offered a 60% goodwill split on a truck that now has just 9,000 miles . Even... Read more
Replaced touchscreen/ digitizer, lost center stack
By s6275
Like it says…I replaced the touchscreen/ digitizer. The new screen works, but I lost lost center stack controls (park assist, stability control, HVAC, air suspension), and the wipers are stuck on. Currently I have the negative disconnecte from the battery, but short of some kind of magic reset…is there anything else I should check?

Crazy fast factory order at Mark Dodge
By Tackleberry88
Im honestly still in shock with how fast my factory order has gone with Mark Dodge. Placed the order with @AnthonyRI on September 18th and it arrived today October 15th. Now I have to wait to Monday to pick it up due to a stupid family event over the weekend. I've never ordered a vehicle much less done it remote in my life and the process was unbelievably easy. Also if you factory ordered a Forge Blue 1500 Laramie looks like you will be getting a call soon.
2016 Ram 3500 display troubles
By bkenobi
I am the original owner of this truck and it is basically stock bighorn with the 8.4" GPS head unit. I never activated either maps or the subscription for WiFi, XM, etc beyond the initial trial. I've had an issue with the display and a couple other related things for years and assumed it was a failing head unit but Gemini suggested it could be all related to the GSM card or the shark fin antenna. The symptoms I have are: 1) When I turn the truck on, sometimes the display won't turn on... Read more
Bed Liner
By dRAMbuie
What is everyone doing for spray-in bed liners these days? I've always gone with Line-X in the past, but it seems like a lot of their locations have been closing and that makes me wonder if they're on the decline. Cost is less important to me than quality. I want something that looks good and will last. Any recommendations?
Key fob
By Moparstables
I have a 2016 ram 1500. The problem is with the key fob. We don't carry the fobs with us and our son called us while we were away and said that the truck horn was blowing once in a while and the fobs are so sensitive it's hard to have them in a pocket. Any advice is appreciated.
Ghost in the machine help.
By thomasx118
I put this here instead of electronics because I'm still not sure of the cause. I have a 97 Ram 1500 4.9L that I inherited. It ran fine for awhile but one day I got in the cab and cranked the engine. Engine cranked, has spark but no fuel pump prime. The fuel pump is new and the connection there is good after lifting the bed and checking it out. Tracking the cables to the engine bay looking for a break I found nothing that would cause a short. I pulled my ecm and it looked good, no green... Read more
2017MY Rebel RWD Entire rear axle assembly swap (the whole thing).
By HETPE3B
First time RAM owner here. Can't wait to drive it (the sooner the better ) It looks like the truck sustained quick a brutal side impact over the curb or something (the rear wheel crushed into the pieces). I barely was able to remove the bent half axle using the hammer. I suspect that not only the half axle is bent (which it is), but also the entire axle housing may be damaged. The trackbar even got bent from the side impact.. So I'm searching now for the complete replacement rear axle. I... Read more
Air Filter Tests 2026
By HEMIMANN
Project Farm just tested some engine air filters. Including many I've never heard of. Why he has a Fram is beyond me, since they are out of business. Wix was best during his previous test, but was cheapened when Mann+Hummel bought them. So, it's Purolator for the win in 2026. K&N remains the rock catcher its always been. Todd calls it a grasshopper catcher. This Air Filter Will Destroy Your Engine! Which car engine air filter actually protects your engine best while maximizing airflow? In this video, we put 15 popular engine air filter brands through ri... youtu.be
Bed Plug Cover Kit for 2014 - 2023 Ram 1500, 2500, & 3500 Trucks
By FossilInd
A while back we got a new Ram 3500 that was pretty loaded out. One of the things it came with was the factory fifth wheel/gooseneck hitch. The plastic inserts that Ram ships with the truck were pretty pathetic. Drag one toolbox or hard object across them, and they break. Hit a good bump, they fly out. It wasn't long before gravel, dirt, and everything else was clogging the hitch points and making it a pain to use them. So, we decided to make something better. This bed plug/puck... Read more

AC Remote Start Weirdness
By MacAttack_14
Hey everyone, I need my AC to auto start when I remote start my truck (2017 Ram 1500 4x4 Sport 5.7L with all the extras and 8.4" screen). I know it sounds odd but the pandemic left me with a warmth/heat dysregulation. The AC works okay if it's 85* outside or higher, but if it's under 80 it won't turn on at all (and the cab can be 100*+). It's a black truck, which doesn't help and my work place has zero shade. I have the "auto on" turned on in settings (which I think is just for the vented... Read more
2017 SLT Low Beams Dim
By sbarner
I bought a 2017 SLT with 66k on the odometer and drove it in the dark for the first time recently. I could barely see the road under the low beams, and a slow-moving porcupine paid the ultimate price for my insufficient lighting. The fog lights seemed brighter than the low beams when I turned them on, though they don't light up the road very far ahead. High beams were bright and high enough, though their beam pattern was narrower than on any other vehicle I've driven in the last 50 years. I... Read more
2011 RAM Engine Light on after replacing Motor, and then Igniton System and Fobs
By dunney
Hey Folks, how goes the battle? Sorry I've been away too long. My 1500 was working great because of you guys, but now has fallen into disrepair. I must ask for help again as no one else seems to know these trucks like this site. So for background... I have a Ram 1500 5.7 with 293,000 miles. The valve train went around 250K, and my mechanic asked if I wanted to replace the motor with a Jasper 5.7 with the cylinder deactivation, or not. The truck came with deactivation (sorry if I don't have... Read more

About the HVAC Blower Motor Resistor
By AssphltCwby
Is there such a thing as the HVAC Blower Motor Resistor being too resistant? I cleaned the evaporator and improved airflow somewhat, but still not blowing out as hard as I think it could. I have all blower motor speeds, but high speed is seemingly more like what medium high should be. Fairly sure it is the original resistor block on a 2018 3500.
2009 Ram 1500: driver door module not showing in scan; no power locks
By jjts
I have a 2009 Ram 1500 4.7L. The driver door module was replaced with a used module labeled Mopar 04602895AH after corrosion was found at the connector. I cleaned the connector. The driver window works, but none of the power door locks work. What I’ve checked: The driver window responds, and its live data changes when I operate the window switch. The ThinkCar does not list the driver door module in a full scan, but I can access its live data. No locks move or click with the driver switch... Read more
Conflicting Towing Capacities
By Throwaway123
Hello all, My parents recently purchased a 2026 Ram 1500 Big Horn with the 3.6L etorque V6 engine. They have the end goal of purchasing a travel trailer that’s about 27-29 feet long. My mom has been concerned about whether our truck is capable of pulling said trailer. I’ve been searching through several different websites, including dealer websites, in an attempt to find the actual towing capacity, but have received conflicting information. I have been searching under exact... Read more
2012 Ram 2500 5.7 Hemi - disappearing oil and a long list of codes
By jdale18
HI I have a 2012 Ram 2500 HD 5.7 Hemi ~260k miles. I noticed that the oil level keeps going low. I did an oil change 100 miles ago where I drained the oil, changed the filter and added 7qts of oil. Today the oil was below the safe zone so I added a qt to get it back in the safe zone. Before the oil change, I saw the low oil light come on when accelerating which prompted me to change the oil to ensure the proper level and to check everything out. I do not see any oil leaks and the coolant... Read more
AC question for those with "Auto"
By MacAttack_14
Hey folks, If you have the automatic AC and 8.4" Uconnect (3?) screen (I think 2017 and prior models), can you tell me if you can get the AC to run during remote start in moderate outdoor temperatures? And what your exact settings are, if you would. If you have the manual three knobs, then this doesn't apply to your truck. The pandemic left me with a temperature dysregulation problem and getting into my hot truck, well...it's not a good thing. The remote start AC will run if it's... Read more
P06dd code and oil pressure readings all over the place
By Jive
2017 Ram 1500 with the Pentastar V6, 84,*** miles. Accelerating on and on ramp and CEL came on with reduced power. Got off the interstate onto back roads where I could go slower when an oil pressure light flashed on. Gauge showed the oil pressure fine, but digging into the menus where the actual oil pressure is was showing 16psi and would dip down to 12psi on occasion and the oil pressure light would come on. About 3 miles from home, the oil pressure gauge would drop all the way to... Read more
