Hi, I noticed under the hood there is a sticker from Dodge that says the ECU was reflashed in 06 I believe, What may have been the reason for this? The truck has the 5.7 Hemi. Thanks

Will this cause any issues if I want to get a Programmer?

Its just a calibration update, wont affect anything with a programmer. Tuners like diablosport will actually update your computer to the latest factory revision if it isnt there already

Ok, I just wasn't sure if there was some sort of update that was issued for the 04 Rams. When they re flash does it get like the 06 Program or do they just make a change to the 04 program?

I am looking at a Superchips programmer and I guess that one just copies whats in your Computer already.

Just updates to the programming for your 04. The "06" is just when they did it.
