    Will I regret not getting the V8 even if I don’t tow? Debating which truck to get…

    I have a 6.4L that used to pull an 18ft enclosed, but now is a daily driver since swapping over to cummins for a work truck. If you think you may pull or haul heavy loads at some point, it's beneficial to have, but it will drink more fuel either way and be more expensive to repair. I'm not...

    Power Module (TIPM) Connectors

    I appreciate everyone's advice and responses. I ended up going to the dealer and it was an expensive fix. They said the TIPM was arching and caused the connectors to melt in certain spots (the HVAC and fuel pump). Long story short they, swapped out the TIPM and connectors and gave me a warranty...

    Power Module (TIPM) Connectors

    Thanks! I've looked into the bypass option, but I'm not sure that will fix the connector issue because the power still has to run through them.

    Power Module (TIPM) Connectors

    I've got one heck of a problem. I bought a new power module because a shop told me the fuel relay pump was going bad causing the motor, not to turn over. That still may be the problem, when replacing it I pulled the connectors and noticed a couple of the connection points were getting hot and...

    Is this a good deal?

    That's a good point most parts are manufactured overseas, I guess you could research to see where Mopar is manufacturing where and make a judgment call. Personally, with international sellers on eBay, I would be hesitant. Good point though!

    Is this a good deal?

    I would stay away from it because it's being produced and shipped from China. The quality control won't be up to the same standards as the made-in-USA stuff, and who knows if it's legit. Plus the seller rating is only in the high 80s. I agree with the guys above, if you have a reliable supplier...

    Ignition Problem

    Update. The truck has still been not starting intermittently, after three different shops have looked at it, the diagnosis is a faulty power module or TIPM that the fuel relay pump is having issues with generating enough fuel pressure to turn the motor over at the start. From what I understand...

    Ignition Problem

    when it doesn't start the starter continues to click and tries to turnover. I'm leaning toward a fuel problem but when it does turnover it runs just fine. Not sure if that's a symptom of a bad fuel pump.

    Ignition Problem

    Thanks but it's not a factory battery and was replaced a few years ago. With the truck off and lights on it still holds a good charge and turnsover first thing in the morning.

    Ignition Problem

    Hello, Interesting problem I've had two shops look at it with no success. My 2015 2500 6.4L Hemi is having some starting issues and the trouble is it doesn't do it every time. When I turn the key and the truck doesn't start I can hear the starter engaging, but no turnover. The battery is holding...

    Heater Blowing warm not Hot

    Hello, I have a 2015 2500 6.4L. Lately my heater has been blowing warm, but not what it used to be. A couple weeks ago I had to replace thermostat, water pump, radiator. I haven't had a chance to look at the heater core. The coolant gets around 215 degrees, and the system should be burped by...

    Turn Signal Error Message But Good Bulb

    Hello, The other day I got an error message on my screen for my right rear turn signal being out. The bulb looked good but I replaced it anyways with the same problem. Could it possibly be the relay? Thanks for the help! 2015 Ram 2500 6.4L hemi.
