Does anyone have a suggestion as to where I can get a service manual (any format) that also has complete wiring diagrams for a 2018 1500?

Thanks

That’s a very good question. Following for a good answer hopefully.

alldata has everything and is fairly cheap, I think a few or even a couple bucks a month. It's free on many college campus's, I had a pass word that worked for like many years, but when the password gets shared they know and shut it down.

Have you looked at their wiring diagrams? Curious about your experiences and their accuracy. I see they have an alldata diy for $29 a year which includes...
  • Service and Repair Procedures
  • Factory-Correct Wire Diagrams
  • Maintenance Schedules
  • Technical Service Bulletins
  • Factory Part Numbers
  • Labor Times

For Bronco's they were very accurate, I haven't had a pass word for a while now. I used them a couple times to do wiring stuff in later 90's early 2000's. Actually if my memory serves me I only used it for wiring stuff. I suspect they have everything you will be able to need, this is what some trade schools use to teach and what repair shops use as well. I'm pretty sure for 29 bucks a year you will only get one vehicle, but I was lucky enough to snag a trade school password :) I had the keys to the candy shop, lasted for years but finally someone shared it to too many people.

I've got the alldata for my ram and my wife's grand caravan. I haven't had to "use" them yet, just looking around seeing all the info. That price you quoted is full price, there are discount codes readily available. If I remember correctly I got both of mine for $40.

I had alldata years ago for our Aveo. It was basically a scanned copy of some version of the factory service manual. It seemed to be accurate and complete data. Dunno how they get the information now as the FSMs are all no longer published, everything is on line.

The FSM CD that you can get through tech authority has most of the wiring diagrams, but they are buried within the diagnostic code sections. Harder to find but accurate.

The best source of easy to use and accurate technical information is techauthority's on line subscription but at a whopping price. The subscription gets you access to everything FCA built, not limited to the RAM. Its easy to follow and to find interesting stuff. I downloaded many of my RAM's wiring diagrams back when it was in beta and free.
