My 2016 5.7 is throwing p2323 (ignition coil h failure) and p0308 (cylinder 8 misfire) at or above 1500 rpm. ive replaced spark plugs and coils, and even followed some online advice to replace the mds solenoids, but nothing worked. I talked with a Ram mechanic and he said its likely a PCU or the wiring. Id like to start with the cheap and easy fix buying an ignition coil connector with a bit of wiring hanging out to splice to. The parts department gave me a part number (68440520AA) but when trying to find it online no photos are available and its description is "wiring - three way"
If anyone can help me find the right part or something to help me get the job done I'd be incredibly grateful

Thanks guys

Curious on why you think that'll fix your issue though,the connectors don't really go bad,unless you've bent a pin.
Theres some light abrasion on the wires too close to the connector to splice, im almost positive its a PCU but i figure this might me worth a try, PCU's are about $900

I know this is a really old post, but I'm experiencing the same thing. Did the kit help solve your problem?

The OP wasn't here long and hasn't been seen in about 18 months.

Don't follow their lead with using the parts cannon approach, either.

Troubleshooting and diagnosys will save $, help you to learn and likely find the solution with less effort. :cool:

Start with a vehicle history, mileage, your observations and what tests have been completed.

Are you equipped with tools and/or experience to complete testing and/or repairs?
