    Map lights not working.

    I’m not sure what Alfa obd is ? No I have not made any changes. I’ve replaced the tpim and the pcm that did not fix the problem. It started out with some days it worked and then some days it didn’t work. Then it stopped completely.

    My letter to Mopar regarding discontinued ABS module

    You are better off getting your ABS unit rebuilt. It is a tenth of the cost then buying a new one and you don’t have to pay the dealership $259-500 to program it. I had my son’s GMC rebuilt for $68 and $16 shipping both ways. The dealership wanted $1200-1500 without programming it! There is lots...

    Satellite antenna not working properly on 2011 bighorn.

    Should I get the shark fin antenna that is available on the 2013? My truck has the radio that shows it has cellular options on it that the shark fin antenna’s capabilities with two wires have. Would that increase the satellite’s reception?

    No start, no bus. TIPM and BCM replaced

    I do not have a mechanic. I misspoke. I replaced the battery first and then the alternator because my code reader showed that the alternator wasn’t charging properly. The new alternator showed that it was not charging also. I returned the new alternator and put in another new alternator. That’s...

    No start, no bus. TIPM and BCM replaced

    I had similar problems with my 2011 big horn 1500 I replaced the TIPM and power control module “PCM” at Mack’s Rebuild after I put in a new battery and alternator. You have to go down the line of checking off everything. I wish there Was a good electrical mechanic for me instead of what I...

    Performance shocks

    I’m looking for good shocks for my 2011 quad cab 1500. I bought Monroe reflex shocks and they are absolute garbage! The first set lost all of their dampening in two weeks of driving to and from work all freeway driving. I had them warranted by rock auto ( which is a pain to do). The replacements...

    New Ram owner, can't believe how bad it is in the snow.

    If you’re not going to change the tires lower the air pressure in the tires to get more traction. You can go down to 25 psi it would make a big difference in traction. Everyone is correct that you are comparing apples to oranges.

    Looking to replace shocks

    Don’t get the Monroe reflex shocks. I bought them for my 1500 and their junk the first set lasted two weeks. I returned them for warranty and the second set I got after a month they’re junk and I only drive on pavement. The dampening is already gone and the truck bounces all over the road now. I...
