    Anyone's Homelink buttons randomly not working?

    I know this is a older post but just my two cents worth. My 2018 1500 does the same thing as some have stated that when the truck is cool the Homelink works fine but when the cab is hot it doesn't work. Being that my truck sits outside all the time and is a dark color and the switches are...

    Service air bag warning repeatedly while driving

    Had something similar happen to mine a few weeks ago. While the truck was parked and running we were looking for my phone and my wife pulled the passenger seat slide lever from outside the truck (so she could look behind and under the seat) and the seat flew forward, ever since then my airbag...

    A different Water leak location-2018 1500

    You right or just using cheap materials that can't take the heat here in Texas kinda like the Uconnect Radio screens. Either way my well placed sealer goop along the seam has stopped my water leak so i'm happy! I was getting tired of taking those back seats out.

    Mysterious leak

    I just posted about the same leak on my truck. https://www.ramforum.com/threads/a-different-water-leak-location-2018-1500.199982/post-2797578 It was coming from the cab seam right below the rear window corner. i smeared it with sealer up and down the seam and it stopped the water.

    A different Water leak location-2018 1500

    Found a different location for water leaking in the back of my 2018 1500 Sport crew cab. Have already fixed third brake light seal and cab vents have been replaced so after recent rains i noticed water again, ughh, in the rear driver side corner of cab and wet carpet under the rear seat on that...

    UAQ/UAS Digitizer Replacement Steps

    Great write up. I did this too and have had my radio apart a few times already so i thought i would give my two cents on the process. With those screws when you first take apart the radio i put some painters tape over the heads after i loosen them up then when you roll the radio over to...

    Trouble Finding Correct 8.4 Uconnect Digitizer

    I can confirm that airbudrecords part number he received will work. I cracked my screen just the other day trying to clean off some more glue that seeped out from behind the lcd and was causing more ghost touches. I had previously removed all the glue between the screens and all was good till...

    UCONNECT 8.4 screen fix, i did it.

    @SitKeelBend Forgot to mention I like that idea of adding a fan or fans behind the radio. I got a few of those laying around might give that a try.

    UCONNECT 8.4 screen fix, i did it.

    2018 ram 1500 with 8.4 uconnect delamination

    I started a new post "UConnect Screen Fix, I did it" and posted pictures, I fixed it, no more ghost button pushing and by looking at the screen you really can't tell I did any thing to it. Cleaning the glue off was not as bad as i thought, I placed the screen in my closed truck on the dash in...

    UCONNECT 8.4 screen fix, i did it.

    Yes, if you see that last photo i uploaded you can see the screen delamination/leaking glue line and it was right across all my radio presets. You could only have one station set on all of them or else it would go crazy changing tunes. I left my screen on the radio because if you switched to...

    UCONNECT 8.4 screen fix, i did it.

    You bet! Now I'm tackling the side mirror gear replacement. Bought a metal gear replacement with the shaft on Amazon, way cheaper than Gruven parts. Saving alot of cash doing the DIY!!

    UCONNECT 8.4 screen fix, i did it.

    So my radio in my 2018 Ram Sport has been delaminated as they call it or had the bubble in the screen for quite some time. Didn't want to hassle with FCA over it and research had shown it was just the glue. So i watched quite a few you tube vids of people taking apart the radio and screens and...
