    KILLIN BATTERIES

    I would also drop some coin on a hood battery and see what happens. However, do not give them your current as a core trade in. Instead keep it. If the new battery doesn’t solve the issue then put the old back in and take it back to the dealership. I would not take it in with an aftermarket...

    Aftermarket amp install

    The ANC CH1 is just an ANC bypass. You would then need to take the signal from the speaker wires into a Line Output Converter which then converts the signal into RCA for input into an Amp. OR, use and amp that has a LOC built in. Either way you need to convert the signal in the speaker wires to...

    H/K add sub

    Don’t leave factory sun hooked up. It’s redundant and boosts certain frequencies. If you are adding a sub then use that. Also, you will need to disable your ANC system once you add that sub.

    Any one try and do a lease buyout in 2022?

    You aren’t doing just a lease buyout but your are also throwing financing on top. That is why your credit union is asking for those items. The credit union expects that you are already working with a dealer who will be facilitating the financing transaction. Since you aren’t you should say this...

    Seattle Vinyl Wrap Recommendation?

    Can anyone recommend a shop or a person in Seattle area for a small vinyl wrap job? All the typical shops are either too busy to respond or charging exorbitant amounts. All I want to do it wrap the grill surround (not the internal slats) and the mirror caps.

    Carven Muffler Replacment + NO ANC = massive drone

    Where does it go? Before or after the muffler? https://mufflex-performance.com/dodge-ram-1500-2009-up-to-2018/97-j-pipe-noise-eliminator.html

    Limited grill - aftermarket or powdercoated?

    I’m betting it’s vinyl wrapped to match the paint.

    Gas mileage and Thumping noise

    Other thing I’m noticing, it looks like the wires that are bare are not the ANC wires. The ANC are the 4 top and bottom next to the large red wire.

    Gas mileage and Thumping noise

    I see the exposed wires. Very weird to see that on a new truck. If we hadn’t already been talking I would have guessed that you did that by trying to take the wires out. However, I know you didn’t do it because of our conversation.

    Carven Muffler Replacment + NO ANC = massive drone

    Just an fyi for anyone who is thinking about installing the Carven one cut muffler replacement but has bypassed ANC for some reason. This muffler will put out a ton of drone between 1500-1800 rpm. Even worse when MDS kicks in. The ANC system actually does a great job of reducing drone in the...

    Gas mileage and Thumping noise

    I looked at that plug you listed. It says all Ram trucks with no sub. Since you have H/K system it won’t work for you. After you have your appointment for the thumping then unplug your wires while you wait for the new amp.

    Gas mileage and Thumping noise

    Just unplug that white harness going to the amp under your seat and go for a drive. If the thumping stops then it’s ANC. Sometimes the bypass cables don’t work. In that instance you need to unplug the wires. If it’s an ANC issue then I guarantee unplugging the wires will stop the thumping.

    Gas mileage and Thumping noise

    There are 4 sets so 8 total. Follow this write up. https://www.ramforum.com/threads/how-to-disconnect-anc-at-amp.126462/ Just make sure to take pics so you can plug them back in before you go in for the new amp.

    Gas mileage and Thumping noise

    I’m hesitant to mess with Alfa while having warranty issues. They can see when changes are made. Not that they would call anyone out. For now I just unplugged the mic wires.

    Gas mileage and Thumping noise

    Also, the ANC system will make some weird noises with ECO mode. If you hear ECO without the ANC it’s a raspy exhaust note. The ANC, if working properly will almost eliminate it. If it isn’t working properly then the ANC will kind of amplify it, cancel it, amplify it, cancel it…type thing. Ram...

    Gas mileage and Thumping noise

    They all have it. When the thumping starts roll your window down. It will stop when the window gets to about half way. Roll it back up and it will start again. It’s the ANC system gone whack. You need to take it to a dealer. Have them verify and then they will order a new amp for you. Which is...

    ANC, cabin thump, amplifier backorder

    For anyone experiencing a thumping in the cabin. It is your ANC system malfunctioning. You can confirm by rolling your window down. At about half way the thumping will stop. There is actually a point where you can slightly roll it down and up to make the thump come and go. Bad news, as of 2/23...

    ANC headliner speakers

    Dealer confirmed. They weren’t able to reproduce but they used my video I took of the sound and rolling the window up down to confirm the ANC issue. Bad news, the new amplifier is backordered with A message stating (more than 45 days). I would get into the dealer ASAP so they can get the amp...
