    starting problem

    How old is the pump? With a sudden crank, no start with everything else you mentioned you already replaced, it is probably the fuel pump. There are internal seals and parts the can break up. If that's the original pump, its almost certainly bad, the E85 could have just pushed it over the edge...

    new stereo buzzing like crazy

    Poorly shielded wire will cause interference, as well as poorly made equipment. Wires are cheaper so I would start with that- make sure the RCA to the amp are good quality. Also the RCA running to the amp should not be next to the power to the amp. This will cause interference too. Run them...

    04 1500 head, tail and turn signal issues

    Could be the multifunction switch. Maybe clean it to start and then replace it if you still have a problem?

    Ac blowing cold when stopped

    Probably a broken blend door, it causes these same symptoms and is very common on the 3rd gen rams

    '05 Ram 5.7 Transmission not working and making a winding noise

    Sounds like a torque converter, the bearings can go bad and it will sound like a whining noise up coming from the bell housing. If you put it into gear and are able to roll it a little downhill or something and don't hear anything from the transmission it is almost certainly the torque...

    Universal/Under the Dash AC in '03 Ram 1500?

    Agreed, taking apart the dash is not as bad as you would think. Take pictures as you go and label bolts/screws in bags. There is a lot of youtube videos. I got mine apart and back together in the same day- about 8 hours total. Never had done it before. You don't have to remove the steering...

    4.56 gears trans goes into limp mode

    Do you have AWD? If yes than I wouldn't drive it until you swap the front to match. That big of a difference will definitely throw that code and eventually break something in your driveline.

    Ran out of gas and now it wont start

    Probably a bad fuel pump. I put in aftermarket pump that failed after a couple days. A used fuel pump probably sat empty which will rot all of the parts that are supposed to get lubricated by the gas. A new mopar pump was $350 a couple years back

    Sorry, Windshield wiper not working.

    By process of elimination I would have to guess its the multifunction switch too. You can clean them, worth a shot if you have the tools, you will need long small torx: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb87qBE9Ito Or buy a new one

    front diff grinding in 2WD. 4x4 will engage but the wheels don't receive power... sound goes away

    Can you tell what is broken- Is it the joint in the actual CV? It could be the splines on the diff side of the CV- any play in the CV joint over time will cause the CV to wear down the spline of the passenger diff shaft. It it technically called an "intermediate shaft". If its just your CV...

    Possible vacuum leak?

    Spray brake clean to test for vacuum leaks. You can get pretty specific of where you spray to test for the leak if you get the cans with the skinny straw. It will stall out a bit if there is a leak. Vacuum leaks can be a needle in a hay stack unfortunately

    I'm definitely an idiot when it comes to wiring.

    This is from Scoshe for 06-07 rams: Wiring Diagram If you radio doesn't power up, you most likely either wired it wrong or have poor connections. Or if you bought a used radio it could be broken. You have to make sure you get good connections- solder and shrink tubing absolutely necessary. I...

    led stays on

    A 3 way switch is when you have two different switches controlling the same light Do you mean a toggle switch? It would have three positions- off-2, light-1 and light-3. In this setup only one set of lights will work at a time. The toggle should have 3 terminals. The middle one connects to the...
