    After swapping-New 8.4" radio dead? Plz help diagnose

    Definitely a radio problem. Replugged in my old 5" radio, it works like a charm. No biggie, I paid less for the radio and bezel than I could find a bezel alone.

    I was told drivers side by brake booster, that's where I found a 20amp inline of the harness. Can't find one on the Passenger side near fire wall. If the fuse was bad, Would the B/U cam work ?

    Buying a new 8.4. Consensus from multiple people is a bad radio. I'm not going to throw more $ at this one.

    After swapping-New 8.4" radio dead? Plz help diagnose

    Odd thing is. When I put the truck into reverse the backup camera displays on the screen for a second or two and then cuts out and then works and then cuts out again. I should add this is a 2017 Panasonic radio. I think that's the one having problems with the digitizer?

    After swapping-New 8.4" radio dead? Plz help diagnose

    2018 2500 Tradesman... Finished swapping my 5" stock radio for an 8.4" with parts from M2mods/mgrimm (awesome guy, very helpful, def recommend!). To be clear, I didnt buy the radio from m2mods, just his wiring harness /HVAC upgrade. The new radio wont turn on. I bought it at a too good to...

    Swap 4 speed a/c for 7 speed a/c

    If I'm understanding your post correctly, you are saying the 1500 might have a more powerful blower motor and/or different fan and that is why it pushes more air. I can't imagine the ducting is different but who knows. I also understand you're saying only swapping out the 4 speed controller...

    Swap 4 speed a/c for 7 speed a/c

    Where are you getting your data from? There is a definite difference between the velocity and sound volume of the air coming out of the '21 ram 1500 on level 7 than the '18 2500 on level 4. They are both in my driveway right now, I just fired them up and double checked to make sure I wasn't...

    Swap 4 speed a/c for 7 speed a/c

    The nuts and bolts of my question: I have an '18 classic 2500 tradesman w/ the 4 speed a/c blower. How complicated and how much $ would it take to upgrade to a 7 speed? Full explanation: I live in Phx, AZ otherwise known as the surface of the sun. The 4 speed a/c isn't so great during the...

    Ram warranty/customer service nightmare

    To the OP: Are you using your truck commercially? If so, that voids a lot of warranties. Maybe we are missing that part of the story?

    Fender Flares on Hemi

    I have an '18 2500 classic. Same bushwhackers, didn't have to move anything either. I think QC on Hemi placement isn't the best, and unfortunately you won't know if you'll have to move yours until you buy some and see the fitment, or take some really good measurements. Good luck!

    Strength of fan

    Ram a/c fans suck compared to almost any other brand vehicle. There's probably nothing wrong w/ it. Search the forum, or google for rams a/c not blowing hard and you'll get 100's of posts like yours. I had this same question last summer... I live in Phoenix, AZ and my (then brand new) '18...
