fullsizeoutput_b98.jpeg Just purchased a 2002 Ram 1500, 3.7L, regular cab this past Saturday (Florida truck; staying in Florida; 77,500 miles) from the original owner - very excited because I've wanted on for a long time. Quick Question: What does "725AB" mean right after the build date (i.e. the MDH) on the door post sticker? When I search "Dodge 725AB" wiring diagrams pop up, but I haven't seen "725AB" on any of the actual diagrams. Just curious.

If I remember correctly, this number corresponds to the physical part number of the PCM in the truck. Its not the part number listed on the white tag on the face of the PCM but the actual physical part number of the hardware, not the software update that is installed.

If anyone else can chime in that would be great.

Not the PCM, at least not according to the 2002 parts book:
1 MODULE, Powertrain Control
56028410AB 1 EML DG0 Federal
56028414AB 1 EML DG0 California
56028416AC 1 EML DG0 Export
56029331AA 1 EVA DG4 Export
56029332AA 1 EVA DDC Export
56040201AB 1 EVA DG4 Federal
56040202AB 1 EVA DG4 California
56040203AB 1 EVA DDC Federal
56040204AB 1 EVA DDC California
56040208AB 1 EKG DG4 Federal
56040210AB 1 EKG DBB Federal

EKG being the 3.7
The only part number that ends in that character set (725AB) in the 02 parts book is the power steering bracket:
-7 53032725AB 1 EM0 BRACKET, Power Steering Pump (and that's for the 360)
There are "725AA's" but they're for random things like bolts.

So what is the difference between the Date of MFR (BUILT) and the MDH ?

Which is the one I should go by to know when my truck was built ... the MDH I believe is the month day and hour but the MFR built date is 2 days later ...
