    Unplugging Air Dam deactivates Rear Camera and Radio stations.

    Hi, I want to unplug the Air Dam to see if it clears the Active Grille Shutters U11E9 code. Problem is that after unplugging the Air Dam and clearing the codes I also lose the Rear Camera and Radio Stations. If I plug Air Dam back in the Camera and Stations return. Any idea how to unplug the...

    U11E9 Error Code will not go away - AGS

    Just saw this. How do you go about cleaning grounds. This is not something I know much about. Strange that the replacement Active Grille Shutter was good for a year and now I'm back to the U11E9 error again. At this rate I'll have to pay Dodge Dealer $2k pa to replace it. Not sure if they can...

    U11E9 Error Code will not go away - AGS

    I replaced the active grille shutter myself last year due to this code and yup it's back again about a year later. It's a dose replacing it btw. Very awkward replacement and snapped a few trim clips. 2019 Ram. Now that's the error is back with this replacement unit I suspect it's something else...

    Battery drain when truck left idle for 7 days

    The saga continues. So it appears the internal F43 fuse receives current for 60 minutes after the truck is inactive and then the parasitic draw will drop to 0.03A. F43 is the USB's and collision detector. Long story short, the truck doesn't have a parasitic draw issue. Lol. So I'm back now to...

    Battery drain when truck left idle for 7 days

    Seems to be the F43 fuse causing the draw. Goes from 0.14 A to 0.03A when removed. When I replace the fuse a few seconds later it stays at 0.03A. I understand 0.03A is a favorable value? I have to remove this fuse each time to get draw down to 0.03A. Appears to be the collision detection and...

    Battery drain when truck left idle for 7 days

    Thanks very much. Looks like it's time to get a new battery so if the voltage drops that low. Appreciate the advice! Will try and get an AGM instead of the Magneti Marelli Mopar one that came with the truck. I thought the AAA guy would've suggested a new battery when he came to the house and...

    Battery drain when truck left idle for 7 days

    Hi, So watched this https://youtu.be/rVScppKsfHs and checked for parasitic drain allowing all the internal lights and systems to switch off about 5 mins. The amp reading drops and holds at 0.114 Amps. This drain however is enough to kill my car battery if unused for 4 days. I took every engine...

    Battery drain when truck left idle for 7 days

    Thanks. Will report back. Trailer, topper and radio fuse will be the first 3 I'll test. Crazy how all this stuff starts shortly after warranty expiring. Murphy's law!

    Battery drain when truck left idle for 7 days

    So just tested the parasitic drain again after running the engine for 40mins. Engine off and the parasitic drain is 4.5 A which explains the battery draining over time. Battery voltage when running is 14.5V and off it's 12.99V. I have an after market truck topper with electric for the topper...

    Battery drain when truck left idle for 7 days

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. AAA just came and jumped the truck. His devices determined the alternator and battery is ok and something must have drained it. The mystery continues. Wil check voltage daily.to see if the drain is gradual. Will look into a tender. Thanks for all the advice...

    Battery drain when truck left idle for 7 days

    Thanks. Yes I actually cleaned the poles with that very device and used the grease too. Did it about 6 months back when battery also drained out of the blue. No lights left on or anything to justify the battery drain. I charged the truck battery overnight back then for 24 hrs or so to recover...

    Battery drain when truck left idle for 7 days

    Hi, I've a 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie and the battery drains to 5.75V after 7 days of no driving. I determined parasitic drain to be 1.3mA on mA multimeter dial setting and 0.245A on the A multimeter dial setting (shouldn't A be 0.130A given the mA to A conversion?) when faithfully following...

    Driver wing mirror defroster

    Hi. I've a 2019 Ram Laramie and the driver side wing mirror takes a long time to defrost compared to the passenger side one. Wondering is there an easy fix to this with maybe a fuse substitution or would I need the dealer to switch out the mirror. Truck is still under warranty. Thanks

    Start up has gotten loud with metal clanking sound

    Turns out that bolts in the rear exhaust flange were broken which ruined the exhaust gasket causing the loud sound. Loud issue now fixed. Dramatically quieter. First mechanic missed it and said loudness was normal. Dealership mechanic identified issue and it purrs quietly now. All covered under...

    Start up has gotten loud with metal clanking sound

    Weeks back when I noticed it getting a little louder I brought it in for a service/oil change and mechanic thought it sounded ok. He mentioned manifold bolts being an issue with Rams but mine were fine he said. Truck has definitely got a lot louder and even my wife brought it to my attention...

    Start up has gotten loud with metal clanking sound

    Hi Guys, I've a 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie 5.7 Gas and in the last month start up has gotten loud. It's a metallic clanking sound about 3-4 times the original loudness and lasts about 5 mins and then noise reduces by about 20%. Regardless it's still a lot louder than normal particularly when...
