    Key FOB - Proximity?

    Ram calls it passive entry and lock. It is not available as an option at all on Big Horn and Tradesman trims, and is a standard feature on all the rest of the trim levels. You can add it yourself after the fact.

    Should I order a 25

    I quoted mikeru where he was putting the hurricane engine arguments aside, and speaking strictly to the other first model year redesign problems. None of which is actually new to stellantis vehicles, just new to the ram. But, as far as the engine in the ram, I would never categorize a ram 1500...

    Should I order a 25

    There’s nothing new on the 2025 Ram that hasn’t already been in play since the 2021 jeep grand Cherokee L, since it’s using all that same tech now. Digital cluster since 2023, new exterior mirrors since 2023 HD Ram, etc.

    My post about the colors of the LED tail light equipped trucks was not a guess.

    Issues with 2024 HD 2500 RAM

    4.5 amps is exactly what the current draw is when one module is waking up all the other modules. Pull the 20 amp fuse out of the weatherproof fuse holder that is in the big wire bundle by the outside of the fuse box towards the bottom of it first, and let us know if it stops that draw after you...

    Stellantis’ new Ram pickup is an EV — with a gas-powered generator in case the battery runs out. The end of the Hemi???

    Lucky for potential future Ramcharger owners, there’s no law saying that when you get gas at a gas station, you have to fill your tank up all the way. We’re free to only buy the amount of gas we think we’ll use over a period of time. That, and there’s fuel stabilizers available on the market...

    Stellantis’ new Ram pickup is an EV — with a gas-powered generator in case the battery runs out. The end of the Hemi???

    That’s only if you start with a fully charged battery and a full tank of gas, and you continually drive the range that gives you before ever recharging the battery. But nobody’s going to do that. If someone never travels farther than the 145 mile battery range in a day, and recharges at home...

    You need to swap out the ORC module for the non-police group module part number.

    Issues with 2024 HD 2500 RAM

    At night, when the truck is off, does your instrument cluster and start button go through a constant cycle of illuminating for about 30 seconds, shut of for 10-15 seconds, then illuminating again, and constantly repeating this cycle? If so, this is your issue...

    No TPMS/TPIS Screen

    In a nutshell…yes.

    No TPMS/TPIS Screen

    No, but that is by design of the TPIS feature even if you do have the tire pressure menu screen. It’s an information only system (you have to deliberately scroll to that screen to see pressures even if they’re low). If you want to be alerted when a tire starts to go low, you actually will have...

    No TPMS/TPIS Screen

    Dealership can’t fix it, and they can’t reconfigure for TPMS either. The programming that is being sent to the cluster is correct, but for whatever reason, when the cluster is told that it’s a 3500 SRW, it doesn’t populate that menu (it does for the 3500 DRW’s). So, after listening to the...

    No TPMS/TPIS Screen

    Ok, for some reason, that cluster does not populate the tire pressure screen when the body control module is configured for TPIS and 3500 SRW. The only known way to get the tire pressure screen to populate on your truck is to use alfaobd and configure it for TPMS instead of TPIS.

    No TPMS/TPIS Screen

    Just so we’re talking about the same cluster, is it this one with the fully digital display screen: Or is it this one with the digital display in the middle, and physical analog gauges on each side:

    No TPMS/TPIS Screen

    Does your truck have the fully digital instrument cluster, and is it a 3500 single rear wheels?

    Stellantis’ new Ram pickup is an EV — with a gas-powered generator in case the battery runs out. The end of the Hemi???

    Can you give me some examples of hybrid cars that use an engine to turn a generator that can use the electricity that it produces to run the electric drive motors while charging the battery (I’m not talking about hybrid cars that have engines that run a driveline when the battery is depleted)?

    Buying new truck, had to sign acknowledgment that connected services account can’t be activated?

    I stand corrected, I completely forgot they started adding TBMs to 5” screen equipped trucks in 2022.

    Buying new truck, had to sign acknowledgment that connected services account can’t be activated?

    2022 was the only year there were connected services deletes because of parts shortages, and that was only for some 8.4” non-navigation radio equipped vehicles. @Tulecreeper has a 5” radio, which have never been capable of connected services or WiFi because they don’t have cell cards...

    Buying new truck, had to sign acknowledgment that connected services account can’t be activated?

    That’s because there’s a battery drain issue going on with the 2024’s. Something with connected services and the telematics box is repeatedly waking up the vehicle overnight, and the battery is dead by morning. The temporary fix is to not activate connected services on new deliveries yet, or...
