    Battery Maintainers setting off Alarm!?

    I have an '05 w/Cummins and dual battery system so I put a battery maintainer on each battery. Now every few hours with them plugged in and doing their thing, the alarm goes off. I had 2 maintainers in my coach wired the same way, but it didn't have an alarm system (not like this old Dodge...

    1/2 Ton Tow

    My neighbor purchased a 32' TT and asked if I could haul it 30 miles for him because all he has is a half ton PU and he's never hauled a trailer before. I can't do it because I'm busy that day, but it got me to thinking (ohoh) Can a 1/2T PU haul a 32' TT safely. He has trailer brakes on his rig...

    Stock Radio Going Nuts After Battery Replacement

    I had to replace batteries in my 05 Cummins truck. When everything was done, I reset everything on the radio-clock, station presets, colors.

    Bed Liner-so far so good

    I've been putting this off for almost a year as I waited for the right weather and was finishing rebuilding my bike. Dear Wife said if I sanded it down and degreased it she would do the actual painting. (She knows how much I hate painting anything). She brushed on 2 coats of Rustoleum Bed Liner...

    MIL (Malfunction Indicator Light) ?

    Intermittent Wiper Problem Fixed

    Okay, I did a search on this and it keeps coming back "No Results" so I figured I'd just start a new post here in the DIY category. After procrastinating on this since I purchased the truck (lousy weather) I finally couldn't put it off any longer. Looking at a whole week of sunshine! I pulled...

    Rear Door Lock Fixed

    Since I've owned my '05 Ram the driver's side rear door lock hasn't worked with the rest of them whether I used the key in the door or the fob. It isn't a big deal to reach through the driver's door and push or pull it manually, unless you have an armload of stuff to put in. After reading...

    High Trans Pressure Code

    I was killing time and goofing around with the OBDII unit this morning and when I ran it for codes I noticed one P0869 that translates to high transmission pressure. There wasn't anything on the dash telling me I had a code so I was kind of surprised which turned to confusion. What is a high...
