My guess is...

    Turn signal fluctuates ambient air temp

    Every time I turn on my turn signal the ambient air temp overhead display fluctuates from -10 to like 50. Soon as I turn off my turn signal it’s fine. Tried a new sensor since I had one available and didn’t do anything. Would this be a TIPM problem, or something else you guys might think of...

    Hole in throttle bodie

    While cleaning the throttle bodie the other day I noticed this hole. It doesn’t look like a factory made hole but it lines up with IAC, so I wasn’t sure if this hole has a purpose or if it got damaged at some point. Also wasn’t sure if it would effect anything performance wise or if I could get...

    Ignition switch or something else bad?

    So I just picked up this truck and noticed when you turn the key forward it doesn’t return back to run from start on its own. Also there’s no distinguishing click that usually feel when it’s turn from off, to run, to start. I already replaced the tumbler and that wasn’t it. Does anybody know if...

    Factory tow harness

    Just picked up an 08 1500 with the 4.7 in it. It has the 7 blade plug in the bumper, but when I looked under the dash there’s nothing hooked up to the factory blue plug for the trailer harness. Maybe I’m mistaken and that plug is just for trailer brakes? Thanks for the help.
