    One dim headlight

    Why don't you run a temp ground from the dim headlight to the battery negative post just to make sure its the ground. Also what your voltage at the headlight with it plugged in to the headlight and on? Does it stay at 14 volts?

    2004 ram 1500 4x4 cruise control help

    2004 ram 1500 4x4 cruise control help

    How about your brake pedal switch? Might check to see if your brake lights are working properly. If the switch is not depressed the cruise control will not work. Good luck let us know what you find.

    Intake plenum replacement.

    My 5.9 was using 1-2 quarts of oil every 600 or so miles. But I had no missing pinging or smoke. I even ran the vacuum test where you block off the pvc line and see if you starting pulling vacuum in the crankcase it tested OK. So I thought damn probably going to be valve stem seals. But the...

    2008 5.7 not starting cranks 1/8 turn

    I would see if you are getting voltage out to the shift motor while its unplugged. If you are, I put the new motor in. Start it up shift in and out of 4x4 and see if the motor gets hot. If doesn't run it. I know of some ECMs that after a circuit was overheated the ecm would fail later on. What...

    Struck the motherload today... Code reader jackpot!

    Buzzing can be caused by moving fluid. Especially if the oil level is low- this allows the pump to suck air and fluid. Almost all pumps will create some noise, gear pumps and piston pumps are some of the noisier pumps. The gearator style pumps are some of the quieter- trany pumps. I think I saw...

    Overheating issue

    Coolant temps when towing weight...

    I'm not sure of my actual temperature , but when towing a tt about 5000 pounds I will get to half on my gauge. Not towing I run about 1/8" -3/16" under half on my gauge.
