    Dead power driver seat

    That is correct. The seat controls do not work for any movement. The seat heater still works but it is on a different circuit.

    Dead power driver seat

    Gents, I hope to one day contribute to the great solutions you all provide. Until then, I'll just keep coming back for your expert advice. My SO got in the truck the other day and tried to move the power driver seat forward. Nothing happened. I figured it was just a blown fuse so no big deal...

    Exhaust manifold bolt year difference?

    Has anyone found an aftermarket part number for these manifold bolts? All of the Dorman options are for 2012 or older trucks and the dealer wants $160 for a handful of hardware. They seem to be different after the 2012 model year.

    AlfaOBD

    Can AlfaOBD be used to disable or remove active grill shutters (AGS)? Motor went bad in the assembly and it is ridiculously expensive to replace.

    Service Transmission Unable to Park

    My vehicle was affected by U61 for cruise control and U74 for tailgate. Both have been repaired by the dealer. I have not received repair for U53, occupant restraint module. There is no mention of the auto park recall affecting my vehicle.

    Service Transmission Unable to Park

    Thanks for all if the input. The truck is working as expected and the check engine light turned off after a few short trips. I think snow and ice got jammed up in the shift linkage on the trans. When I parked, the range of motion was restricted and didnt allow it to shift in to park. It must...

    Service Transmission Unable to Park

    I did have the auto park recall done recently. Truck has 52k miles. I started it this morning and the battery was so drained it could hardly turn the motor over. After about 15 mins of warming up, I tried cycling the trans again. This time it clunked in to park. I've been driving around a bit...

    Service Transmission Unable to Park

    Gents, I have a weird one for the group today. I drove to the store in a pretty severe snow storm this evening. When I returned home, I shifted the truck in to park and let my foot off the brake. Truck rolled backwards and then presented a check engine light with the message stating something...

    2016 ram 1500 Misc Parts

    I'm looking for the 8 speed transmission override lever. It is behind a trim panel above the parking brake release. If you have it, would you consider selling it? Looks like this:

    Recall for Tailgate Flying Open

    Looks like we have to wait until September to get anything official from FCA. Quote from CNET article on same topic, "Ram plans to notify customers and dealers about the recall on Sept. 14. Until then, the automaker advises customers to tie-down or otherwise secure any cargo." If you haven't...

    Gents, For those of you with a locking tailgate plagued by the tailgate falling down while in motion... It is caused by a broken travel limit tab on the tailgate lock actuator. FCA is finally recalling the thing and calling it a defect...

    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    Has anyone tried this with a factory Alpine amp/speaker system? I have a 2016 with the 8.4A and Alpine. Curious if having the Alpine is a deal breaker for the upgrade to a 2018 radio.

    Need to separate ball joints to replace front shocks?

    The dead blow and leverage with a long bar didn't work for me. After trying that, I went to the the screw type ball joint separator (center lever tool in the first photo). I rented from the local auto parts store didn't clear the end of the ball joint stud so it was useless for me.. I then tried...

    So I just got an I3

    Does the PCM hold any identifiable data for miles or engine hours? I'm about to pull the trigger on a max care warranty and would only do the tune if it could fly under the radar when I put the original PCM in for dealer visits
