    What would happen if I hooked up a 2020 8.4 Uconnect to 2014 truck?

    I was looking at upgrading my radio at one point. I think the majority of those who went by way of upgrading their head unit, went by way of aftermarket. I guess to avoid hunting and searching for specific adaptors and such. And not having to do a ton of additional work to make a newer factory...

    Wiring led pods to headlight

    Here's some food for thought. A separate 12 volt line, with a relay and switch will give you full control over when those new pods are used. No matter the forward lighting you're running (low/high/fog lamps). And, best part, separate line means no additional draw/demand on the factory headlight...

    Wipers are going crazy

    I only ask because I had a similar issue (mine was horns, not wipers, but both run through the TIPM where they have relays sitting). My horns would just go off, whenever, wherever. I thought it was the TIPM, when it was nothing more than rust/corrosion buildup. I cleaned all the ground...

    Wipers are going crazy

    I'm curious, is there any rust and/or corrosion around the ground connections near the battery box? Any on the ground connection of the wiper motor?

    Front brakes dragging

    I feel like I'm reading a page out of my own life here. 2010 Laramie, same issue with a hanging caliper. Started throwing parts at the truck, only to eventually find out the hoses were deteriorated and kept slight constant pressure on the front calipers. But this wasn't until after I installed...

    Grill lights

    I have a gen 4 with stock quads. Just got my amber LED marker lights that I am incorporating 4 into the grill. Custom make a wire loom that will go towards the driver headlight assembly and tie into the driver marker bulb. This way they'll act just like the marker lights, on when they're on, off...

    Air condition 2010 Ram 1500

    Did you hook up gauges to the pressure system to check the charge? Static pressure matters, but not for a quick cycle. High and low pressure readings are important (the low number and high number during a compressor cycle). If the pressure drops too low, or raises too high, it will cycle the...

    AlfaOBD

    I have a question about Alfa, OBD MX+, and key fobs. I am at my limit for programming key fobs. However, I only have one partially functioning fob (it's the one I got with the truck, and it is wore out), and one fully functional fob (that I programmed using simple key a while back). I'd LIKE to...

    OBD MX+

    Thanks guys, off to a good start and in the right direction. :) You guys all rock around this place. So much valuable info, and even more important, hands on experience with these trucks. :)

    OBD MX+

    Ok so I put this purchase off forever and a day (Believe me, I drag my feet before buying ANYTHING). First things first, AlfaOBD gets installed later today. Are there any other apps worthy of having? Pin Puller is one I was curious about (cause that pin is required now and then). Don't want to...

    Are the USB ports REALLY "fast charging"??

    Two quick questions. Is the supply port USB C? And is your phone setup for fast and super fast charging (wireless charging also if that applies). I was yanking my hair out by the fistfuls because my S21 Ultra wouldn't super fast charge. Stupid me, never went in to settings and set it up to do...

    Advice on performance exhaust

    When I got my cat back done with a Flowmaster Super 409S, resonator delete, and upgraded to the 5 inch factory tips. I was so happy with the tone. Twice as happy the way the truck announced HEMI when the go fast pedal was initiated. Lately, not so much. Sitting at red lights, doesn't sound as...

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    I seen that. And that is a great idea. I swap radios way too often for me to utilize that nice little spot. But your setup is nice, laid out nicely, and real functional. Looks like it belongs. And that is all one can ask of their upgrades and mods... :)

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    I only went with the dual ball mount to hold the weight of a CB while driving. This setup is very firm and secure. Nothing touches the bezel, or the dash. And I still have an unobstructed view of the front end. I added a set of articulating arms so I can position this wherever it needs to be...

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Oh yeah, that Bulletpoint stuff is built to withstand. I went with the dual ball mount only because CB's got some weight to them. Nobody wants gear flopping all over the place, especially when they're driving. Cause potholes happen, everywhere. lol

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Hey SoCalRamFan, nice move on the mounting system. One can quickly spend a lot of cash at Bulletproof solutions. lol I grabbed one of their dual 20MM ball setups. Rock solid that thing is too. One thing is for sure, Bulletproof has the goods for us Ram owners!!!

    Thank you Dodge for the replacable turn/brake sockets

    I had a "turn signal out" code flash every now and then for like the past 4 months. It came and went, and not very often. Just often enough to forget all about it (out of sight, out of mind, right)... Inspection came due, and of course I forgot about swapping the bulb. But they caught the error...

    Well then, welcome back. Hope this all works out for you. Especially the re-adjustment to seasonal changes... Ahhh, you got a Ram, you're good to go... :)

    How to rise brake and gas pedal forward and back

    Vertically challenged, too funny. Harold, does your truck come with the memory seat function on the left side of your driver seat? Little rocker with #1 and #2 on it. If yes, get her in the truck, set her seat and pedals. Set the mirrors also. And save it to either #1 or #2 on that rocker...

    AlfaOBD

    Been a while since I asked... Has AlfaOBD updated yet to cover 2010 Ram 1500's? Cause I see the "newer" OBDLink MX+ OBD II dongle out. Kinda hoping I can pull the trigger finally and be able to look more in depth to my truck, and its settings. Thanks in advance, cause I know, this is the ONLY...
