Going to post my fix for the parasitic draw. Most of the time on these forums you never see someones solution so maybe this will help someone. My 80ma draw was coming from my key switch. Apparently I was turning it back to accessory and pulling the key out. For some reason my radio would turn...
Got a parasitic battery drain on fuse 51 cluster/radio. I've installed 2 brand new batteries and over a few days both went dead. I have a 80ma draw from fuse 51. For the last week I have been taking it out when getting home to keep it from drawing the battery down. The last couple days I have...
Thats a good ideal. I will look at that switch. I have not had the truck but a few months. The radio goes off as soon as I turn the switch off and I thought it would stay on till I open my door but it doesn't. Is that normal?
When I dumped it out at 500 miles fluid was clean with no shavings. I checked the backlash again and it was still .007 where I set it. I'll change it again in a few hundred miles to see if anything shows up. The wear marks on the ring gear looked good.
I bought this truck used and it had a roar in the rear differential. It turned out to be a pinion bearing and race was bad. I bought all new components for the rear differential. New bearings, new carrier, new spider gears, new axle gears, new ring gear and pinion. My problem is with all the...
2003 Ram 1500 5.7. My power windows seem to have power all the time, Ignition switch can be off and the door open and all the windows will still roll up or down. I also seem to have a drain on the battery. I've replaced the battery twice in the last 3 months. What would cause this and what can I...
Ok got a question before I send of my PCM to get it flashed. I have a code P0633 skim key not programmed in PCM. Is there any way to run the vin and check to see if this truck came with the skim? It has the black dodge key and it don't have the skim module (unless removed by the previous shops...
Ok got the instrument cluster and everything working. Problem is now a soon as I turn the ignition switch on and try to start the truck the alarm goes off. Is this because I dont have a SENTRY KEY IMMOBILIZER MODULE? Not sure if they tried to bypass it and removed the module or thought the...
Got do digging around and looks like I have don't have 12v on fuse number 28. Thats the fuse for the instrument panel I think. Anyone have a diagram so I can check why i'm not getting 12v to number 28 fuse?
OK after further inspection the SENTRY KEY IMMOBILIZER MODULE has been removed by someone that was previously working on the truck. A little history that I have found out about the truck is about 18 months prior to the truck not starting the whole steering column and instrument cluster was...
Working on a 2003 Dodge 1500 that has some kinda electrical issue. The truck has been worked on by 2 or 3 others pervious to me. The little red dot on the right side of the instrument panel is blinking and when you turn on the ignition switch on with the key the instrument panel does not come...
