Diagnostic Code

[Tulet]

Having trouble finding what Trouble Code P38E5 pertains to. A mouse recently chewed on some wires in the engine compartment but I may have missed 1. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Are you sure it’s p38e5? Because that code isn’t listed.

All I see. "This fault code is a GENERIC fault code, some cars may change the meaning of this fault code."

Yes P38E5, I know it's not listed, but my check engine light comes on and that code pops up after I've cleared the code and restarted the engine.

What are you using to retrieve the codes?

Are you thinking of visiting your Ram dealer for an official inspection? Send us a direct message with your VIN if you need any assistance with that process.

Took it to Auto Zone for a different diagnostic. Came up as P0038, O2 Sensor. Thinking I've missed a wire that may have been damaged by the mouse.
