    Frustrated!

    Yes, mine looks just like that. The alternator/starter fuse is what gets hot, sometimes. Not always though. The battery does charge up to around 14 volts. (I did have the newer battery checked out by a very reputable battery shop and it is good) I can leave the cable on and after around 5-6...

    Frustrated!

    It is on an extended warranty $200 deductible per job. This "job" has been on going for months so I'm going the make them fix it. My wager is it's not in the radio or control panel. It is something else causing the control panel and radio to go out. Since September I've gone through 3...

    Safety Recall 66A Loss of crank shaft position

    To my knowledge this recall went out to 2014 models originally. Now we got it for newer trucks. They have no "fix", but they do have the old failed part available I guess. It's a ditto situation with the in tank fuel pump. There's nobody going to build a improved part till people die and...

    Frustrated!

    BTW, I've had Dodge/Ram trucks continuously since November 1974. I am a good wrench but a lousy computer/tech geek. 1975 W100 Power wagon. 140K miles and only breakdown was the front dual cardan shaft. 1974 250 club cab. Went well over 175K miles with very little issues. And on and on. I...

    Frustrated!

    2018 Big Horn 1500. 27, 500 miles. Back months ago my 8.4 screen started that de-lamination thing. I have the extended warranty so I took it in to fix it. They installed a new radio. All was good for a month or so then the radio worked intermittently for a while then went into complete fail...

    Locking gas cap

    Being the diesel fuel cap is basically just a plug they don't have a locking gas cap. But search for a locking door. Lots out there. I think American Truck sells them in factory body color

    FOB

    Update I did find a mobile Locksmith who could do the job in the driveway. Pretty complicated process. He wired in a harness under my dash and then plugged that into a OBD2 harness going to a reader. This gave him the ability to get a PIN and program 2 FOB's. He then had to do similar stuff...

    FOB

    You lost a spare. I have zero.

    FOB

    That is what I'm seeing. I'll have to get it towed to dealer and spend big $$$$! If the truck was over 5 years old a automotive locksmith could do it.

    FOB

    Not a diesel question. My son bought a used 2019 1500 Tradesman. He only had 1 FOB for it. He was involved in a major wreck in his work truck (not the RAM) and just made it out before the truck burnt to the ground along with his only FOB. He won't be driving for at least 2-3 months, but I...

    40/20/40 seat covers

    BTW, of the 2 I'd say the Iggee have a better fit. This is the time of year to do it. Getting them stretched on in the winter would be difficult.

    40/20/40 seat covers

    On my 2018 I just had the Katskin Leather put in. But On other vehicles I have used Covercraft seat covers and they were pretty nice. I installed Iggee https://www.iggee.com/ on my Jeep and they are very nice. I put them in a 2006 Wrangler almost 10 years ago and they are still like new. If...

    CA Tags!!

    LOL, yes, 1997 and older. Typo I do think there were a number of people with AUDI's last year that could not get tags. Up until last week I could not renew my truck, smog or no smog. Something changed.

    CA Tags!!

    Interest enough I tried to pay my tags online again today and they accepted the payment. I'll still take the truck in for the recall next week.

    CA Tags!!

    Definitely got the recall well over a year ago. LOL. I got 5-6 notices, like they are urgent for you to get it fixed but provide no fix. No parts. The 2017-2018 recall fix is different than the early models. The early models had parts available just about a year ago. The 2017-2018 parts...
