    2019 2500 diesel 15k miles, funny smell and no reverse!

    Only 15k miles and barely 2 years old. Took off the other day and got on her pretty good, not towing anything or hauling anything; got home and truck smelled funny, and no reverse or neutral? Truck is basically a garage queen that tows an ATV trailer once in a while, it's never even been in...

    2018 Ram 2500 Diesel, 60k miles. I was baking up last night and turned to look and bam I bumped the shifter, at about 8-10mph I went from reverse to park, the clicking / grinding / drilling noise happened and the truck was stopped and in park after 10' or so. Everything seems ok, shifts, park...

    Program factory key and remote start

    Not sure, find a diagram or search for ECM / BCM connections, do you know what box it came out of? It will probably just be listed as X6 or some letter and number but it might help you find more info

    Program factory key and remote start

    I did not have to nor did I replace the RF Hub and antenna. There was no factory wire harness in my truck for the new hood latch but I only had to run the wire harness and plug in one wire to the BCM. Exactly what I listed is what I did, nothing more.

    Final report on keyfob and remote start project. Found a guy on Ebay who was selling the kit with 2 keyfobs for $180 no tax and free shipping, OEM Mopar parts. Bought new skins for my 2 existing remotes from ebay can't remember the cost, not too much. Installed the hood latch, ran the wire to...

    Program factory key and remote start

    Thanks I Called the dealer he said no big deal and would program all keys and turn remote start on for 40 or 45 bucks, for that I won't mess with it, I've read so many horror stories of dealer charging a ton I was afraid to ask, he sounded like no big deal or cost.

    Program factory key and remote start

    Still looking for some information. I have the new hood latch installed, the wire ran and installed to the BCM on my 2018 RAM Laramie, I did change the key fob cover to one with the remote start, I was hoping it would work, but it does not. Truck still starts and runs fine, but will not...

    Program factory key and remote start

    Question, if my 2018 Laramie is already equipped with remote start, and yes my keyfob does have the contacts inside it. Why can't I just short the connection in the fuse box? Isn't that the only thing the hood latch does is short one connection so you can't remote start with the hood up? It...

    I know this has been asked before, but I haven't found for a 2018, I was hoping maybe through the 8.2 radio settings??

    Keep 18" wheels or take some 20's for free?? All OEM wheels.

    I recently bought a used 2018 Ram 2500 Laramie with the 18" wheels, polished Aluminum I do believe. My son has a 2015 Big Horn, 2500 with the 20" wheels, his truck only has 20k miles on it and the wheels are still in perfect shape. I think they would look better but can't convince myself to...

    Scratch / smudge on backup camera protective cover

    My fear with dremel is pretty high RPM and on plastic it could get too hot. But, I do have a variable speed dremel I can try with. A Dremel would be the correct size to work on something like this.

    Scratch / smudge on backup camera protective cover

    Removing it is a great Idea and I have considered that. Part of the problem with working on it is it's proximity to the tailgate and not wanting to damage it further or scratch up the paint while trying to work on it.

    Scratch / smudge on backup camera protective cover

    I tried some headlight polish already, but I may try to wet sand with some 400 to 600 grit wet paper, the darn thing is so small it's tough to work on. Oh well not the end of the world either way. Thanks

    Scratch / smudge on backup camera protective cover

    I purchased a 2018 Ram 2500, the backup camera outside lense has a smudge, looks to me like it was hit by a buffer or something like that. It makes the image blurry, like a rain drop is on it, it's pretty bad and occupies about 30% of my screen so very annoying. I tried some of the headlight...

    Program factory key and remote start

    I do not have push button start but I do have the one touch start where you just turn the electronic key and let it go, it starts itself from there. I forget the exact term that Ram calls that.

    Thanks a ton for helping me here!! "On the 17+ trucks the fobs that came with your truck already have the remote start feature built in and functional all you have to do is buy new replacement skin's and they work without any extra programming. I did this on my 18 tradesman." Please advise a...

    Program factory key and remote start

    Will any odblink work then load the software to an android device (is the software called "alphodb") ? Do I need to get a PIN from the dealer for my particular truck?
