    Dual zone HVAC control panel

    HVAC unit P55056323AB The slider knobs are a weak point of the dual zone unit. Any idea where I can get replacement (OEM or compatible) knobs? Also, the A/C LED is fried, but all controls function normally. I don't mind resoldering a replacement, but where can I find one? 2003 Ram 1500 Laramie...

    Error code P2181

    Just an update as to the fix: 1. The codes wouldn't clear using a scanner, so I found out that some codes can't be simply cleared by a scan tool as long as a qualifying condition remains. 2. As a quick and easy attempt (even though with an expectation that it wouldn't work) I disconnected the...

    Error code P2181

    I have an active P2181 with a pending P0128. No change in either status since the Fault light lit. 1. I replaced the thermostat with a new tested one that maintains the prescribed temp (195F). 2. I've replaced the ECT sensor with a new one. 3. I've fully drained (including the block), flushed...

    Inverter advice?

    Looking for inverter options. 1. I have the 136 amp alternator, so how many amps does the truck require to idle with no other accessories running? I need this so I can determine the max sustainable power output to determine an appropriate inverter size. 2. Along with this, I'm looking for an...

    P0116 code

    P0116 lit up and hasn't cleared after several driving cycles and several hundred miles. Is there a "most common cause"? 03 Ram 1500 5.7L Quad Cab Laramie

    Throttle body spacer

    I have an '03 5.7. Any idea how much performance is affected if I install a throttle body spacer? So much hype from manufacturers and sellers. Specifically, I'm looking for real-world data regarding HP, torque, mileage, and throttle response. Thx

    Cam failures or not. How many miles have you gone?

    Mine is a 2003 Hemi 1500 Quad-Cab Laramie 4x4 Off-Road and I have 226K on it. I bought it used at 199K over 4 years ago and it cam with a "tic" - a possible indicator of the all-too-common lifter failure. I've been an AMSOIL fan for over a decade so I started off with a flush and put their...

    Freeway speed vibration

    My '03 Ram 1500 4x4 Laramie Quad Cab has a bad vibration starting at 65+ (mph). It's definitely a "lower frequency" vibration similar to a tire out of balance as opposed to driveline which is a much higher frequency. Rotated the tires - no change. Rebalanced the tires- no change. Replaced the...

    Factory hitch rating?

    My rig came equipped with the "AHC Trailer Tow Group", but I can't find the weight/class ratings on the hitch itself. "339" is stamped on each side of the square receiver tube, and "42 02" is stamped above the left safety chain hole. These are only 2 sets of numbers stamped on the hitch that I...

    Increasing vibration

    I have a powertrain vibration that has been slowing increasing over the last 10,000 miles. The rear end was rebuilt about 20,000 miles ago. There is no (radial) slop at the rear end input shaft, no play in either of the U-Joints, but a little bit of radial play (side to side and up and down) at...

    Do they make hood liners/insulation panels for these things?

    Headers, or not?

    I'm looking for a comparison between headers (cost/performance gain/ease of installation) for my rig before I shell out the $$$. Any such thing?

    Nope - completely dark.

    Electrical repairs?

    no abs issues. CC lights are completely dead - on the instrument panel and on the CC controls on the handle itself. It's like the connector for the wires going up the steering column to the handle are disconnected...
