    Gas cap light on after changing fuel pump

    Hey guys! I’ve searched on here but didn’t see any posts with my exact scenario. I had a code for fuel circuit voltage low for about 2 years. Changed my fuel pump weekend before last, which cleared that code and my engine light went off. Driving to work this morning, my check gas cap light...

    Tailgate assist

    I installed it on my truck because people don't seem to know how to open a tailgate without letting it slam down. Every time my wife opened it she let it slam down. My brother opened it and let it slam down. So I ordered the Dee Zee Tailgate assist for around $20. The only complaint that I have...

    Why on Earth do people want to disable MDS? (Hemi newb here)

    MDS was one of the first things I googled how to turn off when I bought my 2015 5.7. The main reason for me is the sound of the exhaust. When MDS kicks in, I sound like I have a 4 cylinder motor with no muffler. After owning the truck for about a year, I decided to try to leave MDS on for about...

    Whine noise with acceleration

    My wifes truck is making a whining noise when pressing the gas pedal as well. To me, it sounds like a power steering pump that is low on fluid or about to go out (I know that her truck does not have power steering). Hers is a 2019 classic 3.6. It didn't make this noise when the truck was new but...

    Rattle that's driving me nuts!!

    I've had a similar issue with my 2015. Mine does it when I start the truck until the RPM's level out and I have noticed it happens sometimes when I am slowing down at about 15MPH (Not sure where the RPM's were) but when I step on the gas the rattle goes away. I have gotten under the rear end of...

    4th Gen Remote start for under $100

    Has anyone installed an aftermarket remote start for a 2019 1500 Classic? My 2015 Ram has an aftermarket remote start from 12 Volt Solutions, but I am looking for a system for my wifes truck for Christmas. I have found a few different options online, but was wondering if anyone here has actually...

    Whats biggest thing you've towed with your 1500?

    I towed my brother 2003 Silverado 1500 HD 4X4 about 60 miles today. It was raining and I live on a dirt road. About 6 miles was on slippery muddy roads, but I only slipped a couple of times. Not bad for a 2WD!

    Hardwire LED Light Strip using Trailer Plug Wiring

    Awesome! Appreciate the links! I bought an LED strip for my truck and my wifes so I'll have to buy 2 adapters. That $20 savings will help out a lot! I don't know why I didn't think to just buy a 5 pin trailer harness! I'll probably hold off on ordering anything until I get my bonus check in a...

    Why are there so few 6’4 long beds out there?

    My wifes 2019 classic quad cab and my 2015 quad cab both have the 6'4" bed. I, personally, would not have bought either truck if it had the 5'7" or the 8' bed for no other reason than I think the 6'4" looks much better. If I need to hall anything that won't fit in my 6'4" bed, I have 6 different...

    Hardwire LED Light Strip using Trailer Plug Wiring

    Your tinted tail lights seem to let out more light than mine do. Did you upgrade the bulbs or anything in your tail lights?

    Hardwire LED Light Strip using Trailer Plug Wiring

    Thanks for the info! The only issue that I see with this is I would still have to hard wire the reverse lights as the strip has a 4 prong plug with the reverse wire not connected to it. But this does seem like a much simpler install than splicing into 5 different wires. I'll have to see if my...

    Hardwire LED Light Strip using Trailer Plug Wiring

    This is exactly what I needed. Yes, this does plug into the back of the trailer connector. I had it pulled out last weekend but ended up just putting it back together because I needed to pull a different truck into my shop. Hopefully I will be able to get this done this weekend. When I bought my...

    2011 Laramie Longhorn rattle

    Have you had any luck figuring out the rattle? I have been having a similar issue with my 2015 ram 1500 5.7L. Mine normally happens when I start the truck and when the truck downshifts to 3rd or 4th gear when I slow down. Lately, I have also noticed it happening sometimes when I am just at idle...

    Hardwire LED Light Strip using Trailer Plug Wiring

    I'm sure that there is a forum somewhere on here, but I am unable to find it. The one that I did find was for an older model and the wiring to the trailer plug was completely different. I am wanting to hard wire an LED Tail/Brake/Blinker/Reverse Strip to my 2015 Ram 1500 using the wiring for the...

    Whats biggest thing you've towed with your 1500?

    I haven’t pulled with my truck very many times, but the biggest thing that I have hauled was my wife’s 2019 crew cab ram on a 16ft car hauler after she hit a cow. Her truck barely fit on my trailer. Towed it about 35 miles home and then another 20 miles the next day to the body shop.

    Whats biggest thing you've towed with your 1500?

    I haven't pulled a lot with mine as I have only had it for about 7 months. The first thing that I pulled was my moms jeep compass. I pulled it on a car hauler about 30 miles to the shop to get a new motor. Had no problems at all. I have also pulled a car hauler loaded down with lumber (320 2X4's...

    Key fob issue and how I fixed it

    I have to do this periodically for all of my key fobs (for my Ram and my wifes Journey) but I normally have to do this because my fob stops working all together. I always remove the battery from mine and use rubbing alcohol and a Qtip to clean mine. Put is back together and it always works like...

    2007 Ram shifter getting stuck in park

    For the last few years I keep having this problem in the winter. When the truck is running the gear shift seems to get stuck in park. I can hear the release when I step on the brake pedal, but it won't shift out of park. I have to wait sometimes up to 10 minutes before it will shift out of park...

    How much $$ on gas per month?

    If I only take the kid to school and go to work and back home, a tank will last me 2 weeks. That would average out to about $120/month. However, I drive this truck a lot as we have been having problems with the wifes car. We pretty much always take the truck everywhere that we go. With all of...

    2014 Ram 1500 subwoofer/box options?

    Do you have any pictures that you can post of your sub setup? I am looking into adding a single sub powered by an amp to my truck soon. I have a 1200 W Pioneer amp in my old truck that I thought about robbing to put in this truck, but I am now leaning towards just buying a whole new setup. I'm...

    Intermittent Problem With Rotary Shifter

    I haven't had this issue with my truck, but I wanted to suggest (like a few other have) that if you are able to, record the issue on your phone next time it happens. I had an intermittent issue with my air conditioner when I bought my truck but every time I took it back to the dealer it worked...

    Locked out

    I have a 2007 Ram with manual locks and windows. I can't say that I hated the manual windows and locks, but its a hell of a lot easier to roll down all of the windows and unlock all of the doors on my 2015 at the push of a button! I'm sure I will wish my 2015 had the manual windows/locks as soon...

    Locked out

    I haven't noticed this happening with my truck, but my wifes 2015 Journey will relock the doors if you unlock them with a key fob and don't start the car within 5 minutes. According to the dealership its supposed to be a security thing in case you accidentally hit the button in your pocket. That...
