    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    Just FYI for anyone looking to do the upgrade. New radios are on backorder, only one website showed that they were out of stock, all others make it seem like they are in stock until you purchase. One website said 8 week ETA, the rest have said they are out of stock, on backorder, with no...

    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    I tried messaging you on Friday, if you didn't receive it, I may be doing something wrong. I usually just read and observe on here, rarely interact. lol

    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    I've read through the first 10-15 pages and then the last 5-10 pages, 378 pages is a LOT to read through... I think I've found the correct radio on eBay, and the compass hub on mopar parts giant. My only questions at the moment are, where do I buy the harness, and can someone confirm I'm looking...

    "Battery Saver" mode

    Another update. I haven't had a chance to investigate to see if anything is draining the battery, but I have found another cause of it. Truck has to be outside, below 40 degrees, and only when I use remote start. If I manually start the truck, inside or outside, I have not had this issue...

    "Battery Saver" mode

    I had read through that one before posting here, but seems they never really found any answers. I also read through a few others stating that some connectors had failed. I guess I'll just have to keep investigating and try to narrow it down somehow as I'll hopefully have some more time in the...

    "Battery Saver" mode

    When this happened the other day, it had sat for less than an hour after 5 hours of driving. The weird thing is, it was fine after sitting for 6 days, but not after 1 hour. I don’t get it. I don’t believe I have an amp.

    "Battery Saver" mode

    Well, now I know, the short trips to work every once in a while is definitely not what is causing it. Drove it to work Tuesday, started fine yesterday morning with no error, went to the gas station and purchased fuel. Started fine there too. Then drove about 120 miles, left it running while...

    "Battery Saver" mode

    Its a 2017 2500 Mega Cab 6.7L. My work commute is fairly short, between 5-10 miles, but like today, if I drove it to work yesterday, I knew I needed it for something else today. Since it was warmer than the older car that had been sitting for 3 days, I took the kid to school (14 mile round...

    "Battery Saver" mode

    A couple weeks ago I had the battery saver mode pop up on my screen. I couldn't control any electronics including, but not limited to: Cruise control Heated/Vented seats Heated steering wheel Heat/AC Radio etc I had figured this was due to sitting outside in the cold for over a week without...

    How to add remote start to 2017 Ram

    The original write-up worked perfectly for me! Doing this and adding the OEM bed lights took a total of less than an hour! Thanks for this! After reading through 36 pages of this prior to purchasing, I became nervous, but I'm glad I attempted it all. Less than $100 in parts, and less than $60 to...

    Factory Warranty Question

    I contacted my nearest Ram dealer, they told me to contact Ram customer service. Contacted them, they said to take it in, see what needs fixed, then try contacting dealer I purchased through to see if they would help. If the dealer I purchased through won't help, then I should contact Ram...

    Factory Warranty Question

    I tried doing a search to see if anyone had a similar question, but didn't find anything. Could just be that I'm tired and pissed off. I just drove from Omaha, NE to Las Vegas to purchase a 2017 Ram 2500 Mega Cab. I thought I had asked every question in the book regarding the truck, but still...

    What's with all of the hatred for these 2019 Ram's?

    Unfortunately for me, I didn't have the time or the option to look at inventories to try and figure out exactly what I wanted. I had it in my mind I was either going to get my old truck back, or a similar 2500 to the one I had just purchased. I got tired of dealing with the dealer, and I'm sure...

    What's with all of the hatred for these 2019 Ram's?

    Sounds like you're just an ******* who likes to make assumptions. I do have a backup camera. I don't lean out of my truck to look back while backing up. Never have. I think after 15 years of pulling trailers, I have a slight idea of what I'm doing... I do however back up to my storage unit to...
