    Low Beams Don't Work

    I have a 2001 Dodge Ram Laramie SLT, and am having an intermittent issue with the low beam headlights. Intermittently the low beam headlights will shut off. You have to turn on the high beams on order to see. However when you turn the high beams back off, the low beams will come back on...

    Erratic Idle

    https://youtu.be/PQlfwZ3rEl4 Apparently I didn't explain myself very well. Let me try again. In the video I just took this is normal operation of the throttle, it's acting fine today. In this video I very lightly tap the throttle twice (at the same pressure as in the first video)...

    Erratic Idle

    https://youtu.be/aIQ8JlTzVrs I've got a 2001 Dodge Ram 5.2 318 automatic 4x4. About once a week, the truck will go into a spell where it has erratic throttle. In the video the truck is idling, and I very lightly tap the gas pedal just enough for it to even realize I pushed it, and the RPMS...

    6 blown computers

    My ABS light and Brake (parking brake) light are now on, which leads me to believe it could be caused by the ABS control module. Does anyone know exactly where it is located on an 01 ram? I've googled it and got mixed answers

    6 blown computers

    I agree on the voltage spike. It's very possible, but my question is where could it be coming from? How could I find it? And what would cause this to happen?

    6 blown computers

    I've posted on here a time or two with this issue. I'm looking for someone who has had the same issue or a similar one to help me out here. My truck has managed to blow 6 PCM's. As you guys know they don't necessarily give these away, they're pretty pricey. I'll explain what happens...

    Broken PCV Valve

    Am I going to have to replace the valve cover gasket if I pull the cover?

    Broken PCV Valve

    Today I did a full tune up, oil change, etc. I noticed I was about to be late for work so got in a hurry and had to change the PCV valve quick. Well I was on the wrong side of the engine and broke whatever I was tugging on. This is the valve that goes from the valve cover to the air filter...

    Stereo Ground Location

    I just installed an amp and I have a little alternator whine. I'm going to go ahead and replace all of my ground wires since I have leftover cable anyway. My question is, where exactly does the stereo ground to? Does anyone thats tore their dash apart before have a pic of the ground location?

    Unique Speaker Mount Location

    I'll try to explain a little better. What is confusing me is there is one front left speaker wire coming off of the wiring harness. Somewhere along the way it splits into two wires, positive and negative. I don't know where it goes from a regular wire to a speaker wire. This is why I'm having...

    Unique Speaker Mount Location

    I agree about the solder and heat sink. It sure makes less of a mess than a ton of connectors! The thing I'm not sure about is there is two wires coming off of the speaker. I have heard that one is for highs and the other for lows but I'm not sure how true that is. I wasn't sure if I was just...

    Unique Speaker Mount Location

    I've nearly got all the wiring done but I've ran into one problem I'm not sure how to fix. I've decided to power the two small speakers off of my head unit. The wires on the left speaker wires that came off of the new speakers. It's ported so it comes with its own wiring, ready to go. The wire...

    Unique Speaker Mount Location

    Thanks guys. I have an aftermarket JVC Head unit that has 6 RCA outputs. 4 of those would go to my amp, the other two I'm saving for subs. I was going to power my other two little speakers, the one this post was about, off of the original front speaker wires in the wiring harness. I should be...
