    Headlamp dial 2022 Ram 1500 Classic

    I thought about ordering a headlamp switch that has the off button and swapping it out. Not sure if that's legal or if the dealership would even do it. And it probably voids the warranty? And there's probably way more to it than just switching out the part. The whole truck would probably have to...

    Headlamp dial 2022 Ram 1500 Classic

    "and all I can do is turn off the DRL option" That option isn't available in the Uconnect settings on Canadian models.

    Poor mpg for 2022 1500

    I had the 3.6 litre V-6 as a loaner for a few days. Didn't find the gas mileage a great deal better. Definitely noticed the performance was completely underwhelming! For the few extra dollars I'll take the Hemi. I mostly drive it reasonably but when you need that extra oomph it's nice to have...

    Headlamp dial 2022 Ram 1500 Classic

    How do you turn the lights completely off on a 2022 Classic (Canadian version)? When its running with transmission in Park and its dark out. As you can see in the photo, the off position is no longer an available option on the Canadian 2022 Classic. I know it's because Canada enacted daytime...

    Instrument Cluster wont turn off 2022 Ram 1500

    Thankfully I got it resolved relatively quickly since I bought my 2022 the end of March 2023. And the software update was released last week. Some have been waiting for a fix for a year or more! Also, thankfully this forum had some good info that I gave to the service department. That sped up...

    Battery dead?

    Update: dealership installed the softwate update this morning (FCA released it last night) and the issue is resolved. The instrument cluster is now turning off after turning off the ignition. The issue was in the electronic shifter module. A glitch wasn't letting it go to sleep. All good. Knock...

    Instrument Cluster wont turn off 2022 Ram 1500

    Update: dealership put me in a free rental until they sort something out. And apparently the software flash should be released tonight. Fingers crossed.

    Battery dead?

    Update. Cluster stayed on all night last night. Cluster was still on in the morning. Battery had enough juice to start. Drove it to the dealership and they put me in a rental for now, which is good considering they don't do rentals unless you buy the extended warranty. And now I wait to see...

    Dash lights and backlight for instrument LED screen wont go out

    Brand new 2022 1500. 2 weeks old. Ditto. Happened last week. Cluster stayed on overnight. Totally dead battery in the morning. And now again tonight, the cluster is not going off so I'll likely have a dead battery in the morning. Less than 2 weeks old. I'm bringing it back in the morning. Will...

    Instrument Cluster wont turn off 2022 Ram 1500

    A week ago I woke up to a dead battery. Figured out its because the cluster didn't shut off. It's a known problem by FCA but no fix yet. The dealership is hoping for a software update soon. It's 11pm and before going to bed I thought I'd check. Yep...cluster is lit. I have no idea which fuse to...

    Battery dead?

    Update: since the dead battery episode Friday and after I charged it back up and drove around, it hasn't happened again. I just got back from the dealership and they did whatever Ram techs do. They said the battery tested fine. It's fully charged. No bad cells etc etc. It's charging as it's...

    Block heater and battery tender

    When I lived in Northern Canada a block heater was essential. During the day too. It got down to -40, -50 and below. In Nova Scotia it's not as essential. If it's going to dip below -25C I'll plug it in. We had a few days of -40 this winter and I plugged it in overnight.

    Can someone tell me how I can get more than 3 feet from my running 2022 Ram, with FOB in my pocket, and not have the horn start honking at me? Thanks

    Just tested the 2 fob thing. Good to go. Started the truck. Got out and left the spare fob inside. Locked it from outside with the original fob. No dings or horn beeps. Good for quick stops running into the post office etc when it's 20 below. Not recommended for long pit stops especially if...

    Battery dead?

    Update...I used a multimeter and battery was reading 5.0. So I put my battery charger on it for about 20 mins until it read 12.7 and it started. Reluctantly. Idling in the driveway at the moment and going for a long drive. Although it's only a week old, the build date says October 2021 so it's...

    Battery dead?

    Went out to my one week old 2022 ram 1500 classic this morning. Grasped the drivers side door handle. Doors unlock except drivers door. Got in and pressed the brake. It's stiff. Pressed start and nothing. Hear lots of clicking sounds from the fuse box. Any ideas?? It's still clicking after...

    Can someone tell me how I can get more than 3 feet from my running 2022 Ram, with FOB in my pocket, and not have the horn start honking at me? Thanks

    I have a 2022. What if you get out when its running, leave the fob inside, and lock it using the spare fob? I'm going to give that a try.

    Lights 2022 Canadian Ram 1500 Classic

    Hi. I live in Canada and just bought a new 2022 Ram 1500 Classic Crew Cab SLT. I traded in a 2019 Ram 1500. I know that Canadian law requires all vehicles to have daytime running lights. Looks like Ram took away the option of turning ALL the lights off on the lights selector dial. My question...

    "What DON'T you like about your 5th Gen RAM"?

    Wish I had asked them to throw in a brake controller. My bad. Rear window seems to take a long time to defog. Other than that, love it so far.

    "What DON'T you like about your 5th Gen RAM"?

    2019 Classic. I was disappointed that it didn't come with a trailer brake controller. I should have negotiated it into the deal. Oops.
