    It's indeed a 7-speed blower.

    2017 Ram 1500 V6 - console ports

    I got the USB side of the Media Hub working. What threw me off was how long it was taking to download track info. Also, the best button to push to access content is Browse. It seems to be working fine for both mp3 and wav formats.

    2017 Ram 1500 V6 - console ports

    So the Remote USB line connects to the Media Hub in the console. In that console is also AUX, which is a 1/8" stereo jack for a music device. (I tested it with a tape player and it works fine.) When the Remote USB line is connected to the Media Hub, a faint blue light appears on the front of...

    2017 Ram 1500 V6 - console ports

    Thanks SitKneelBend. That kinda makes sense since I couldnlt find a "stray" lead that looked compatible with it. Now, if I could just get some help with the USB media cable.

    2017 Ram 1500 V6 - console ports

    In this model are 2 ports inside the console that are not the 12V charging port. They are: ● AUX audio (⅛ plug, presumably stereo) Does anyone know what this feeds to behind the dashboard, specifically behind the head (radio) unit? I have the head unit removed and see no cable that is...

    Blower fan speeds for a 2017 Ram 1500

    I saw that. Firstly, the pictures look almost identical - not very useful. Secondly, I dontlhave geh original Ram bezel. It's been replaced by an aftermarket head unit that went toast. So I'm just asking - does the 2017 Ram 1500 have a 4-speed fan motor or 7-speed?

    Blower fan speeds for a 2017 Ram 1500

    Does anyone know for a fact what kind of blower motor I have in my 2017 Ram 1500: 4-speed or 7-speed? I called the local dealership this morning ans was told it was a 4-speed. However, this article...

    Intermittent ignitions fail on 2016 Ram 1500 SLT

    So are we agreed that this is probably the starter switch? Any other thoughts ??

    Intermittent ignitions fail on 2016 Ram 1500 SLT

    Update: So I took my Ram to another place for a battery check and I think the device (Snap-on) was better that O’Reilly’s. The report it spit out said, among other specs, that the CCA capacity is 85%. So I don’t think the battery is causing the ignition problem. The guy suggested that...

    Intermittent ignitions fail on 2016 Ram 1500 SLT

    Thanks for responses - GTyankee & JohnnyMac. To be clear, I have the conventional (Keyfob) ignition - not keyless. Johnny suggested an interesting cause. For the hell of it, I just took the Ram to O'Reilly's for a battery check. To my surprise, the meter said "Bad Battery". I say "to my...

    Intermittent ignitions fail on 2016 Ram 1500 SLT

    I may have seen this anoying problem posted elsewhere on this forum. I searched and nothing came up. And I hope this is the right subforum to post this. I bought my 2017 Ram 1500 SLT in February (Title should have been 2017). Since that time, I have noticed that the ignition fails...

    User Manual needed for 10.4" Head unit

    AUX jack In my earlier lost on the on the other thread, I inquired about a "an AUX mode on the touch screen and an AUX jack in he center console." SKB replied: "Unfortunately, the stock Aux port will not work on these radios. ... the OEM Aux jack in your console will not work. You will also...

    User Manual needed for 10.4" Head unit

    OK, I was finally able to translate that Russian (it’s actually Serbian) URL to English. I don’t use Chrome on this machine. I had to load Google translate in my Firefox browser. Then, I had to figure out that one can paste the URL into the source side (where it asks for text). An identical...

    User Manual needed for 10.4" Head unit

    I originally posted this question here as #3056: https://www.ramforum.com/threads/tesla-style-10-4-android-radio-information.115875/page-306 Since I’ve discovered a few things since my original post, I thought I’d start a fresh thread. In my 2017 Ram SLT, there is installed a 10.4 Tesla-style...

    Ram 1500 transmission

    Yes, I totally realize that the item is "just the gasket". That's all I was interested in !! See #52.

    Ram 1500 transmission

    I see this on Rock Auto, which suggests that a gasket is indeed part of the pan: https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/ram,2017,1500,3.6l+v6,3435446,transmission-automatic,oil+pan+gasket,8612 Mopar one available for $20. It could be that a little RTV could be added to the gasket surfaces, as well.

    Key FOB question

    As to Rick, I do not have a RA2, RA3, RA4 Radio. I have an aftermarket head unit. As to NJMopar, when you say: "Normal function for two quick presses to unlock all doors ..." this makes no sense. As I said, first press opens all doors.

    Key FOB question

    I hope this is the right place to post this, and it may seem trivial to most of you. My 2017 Ram SLT Quad cab came with a key FOB that doesn't include the remote start function. It simply has the red panic button on the end and, below that, the unlock & lock buttons. I have read that some key...

    "Tesla Style" 10.4 Android Radio Information

    OK ... duly noted. Then I must wonder pray tell: What is the AUX port inside the console for ?? It's not discussed in any of the documentation I got with the vehicle.

    Ram 1500 transmission

    One more question re: this 8HP45 {8-speed automatic transmission in a 2017 Ram SLT (3.6L V6)}: Would the pan likely have a gasket (as in my old Dakota) or RTV ??

    Ram 1500 transmission

    Thanks for the quick response Wild One !! Then I wonder what year this guy's working on ??? You'll see him remove the canister in the front/right corner of the exposed transmission bottom. He never specifically says what year it is. I keep trying to post this Youtube link but the system...

    Ram 1500 transmission

    Can anyone please tell me for a fact whether the 8-speed automatic transmission in a 2017 Ram SLT (3.6L V6) has a canister-type filter?? I've seen a video of a slightly earlier model that indeed had such a filter:
