Ready to burn this thing down
I agree with RC Turner. All those circuits may terminate at a common ground that is loose or broken.

How to spin new engine to build oil pressure before start
I would rather not have to remove 8 coils and 16 spark plugs. I could unplug the coils to prevent firing the spark plugs.- daytona701

mds delete
Hi, I’m installing the non mds rebuilt 5.7 in a 2012 Ram 1500. What is the process for deleting the mds in the engine controller? The engine was rebuilt with the non mds cam and plugs in place of the solenoids. Thank you.- daytona701

Cost so far is about $4400. Reman engine was about $3600. I bought new water pump, hoses, radiator, thermostat, belt, pulleys and exhaust manifold studs.
