Left rear blinker

[Misswreid]

So I have a number of things I need help with.... I called fds/fsc .....the #in the manuel.

1) I was moving some furniture and I had to stop quickly...the extension rod hit and cracked my control screen. I've called so many different delars to get a price or part number....no luck

2) my back left blinker is done, as the other fella said it shows me a message, but when I called the dealer they told me they were unsure wether it was a bulb or a whole housing replacement....

Does anyone have ideas or suggestions

Not sure on concern number one.
Number two should be just a bulb replacement. I would take the lens assembly off the truck and have a look.

 

[Misswreid]

so apparently the whole tail light has to be replaced....

Unbelievable.......

The funny thing is that just 2 days ago it started working again.....
I dont know....

Almost sounds like LED setup as opposed to normal bulbs? Not sure of the price, I am 100% OEM but if is crazy expensive, sounds like an Ebay visit is in order. Good luck

What are you telling us we can no longer just install new blinker fluid to get the blinkers working again lol...

Why is it that when a woman is just speaking what she knows, men make it sound like their just dumb.

Sorry but that's just ******* response...

FYI when I replied I never even noticed you were a woman, I guess now days people no longer understand humor

 

[Misswreid]

Forgive me. I have been shafted from everyone I've tried to seek help from...

I'm so sorry

Can't be too bad, you have a 2016 Ram.

Now you just need a quart of blinker fluid



C'mon, that's funny, laugh it off.

 

[Misswreid]

That's actually....

 

[Misswreid]

Quite funny..... I had no idea that actually existed

Also looks like you have a pretty decent truck....

Hi, First off welcome to the forum, what trim level do you have is it a big horn or laramie, does it have the led lighting, the CHMBL ( third brake lamp) could be going out and sometimes you get a message for rear tail light out, as far as your screen its probibly the 8.4in screen is it functioning ok, you can purchase just the screen to repair it, also i would check that gasket on the third brake lamp they have been known to leak from drying out you will see staining on the rear headliner.

 

[Misswreid]

Wow that was alot of great info.... thank you so very much....

In regards to the screen .... where would you recommend getting a replacement...

And in the last week or so the blinker has been on 'n off.... sometimes it shows left rear blinker out then blinks really fast..... but within the last few days it's been back to normal....
I got an oil change today and it's back to rapid blink.....idk..... smh..

Your trim level is Limited, EBay usually has screens for about $500.00 measure it vertically from corner to corner for size its probably a 8.4in screen, great looking truck!!

The screen itself won't be an available part from the dealership.
You might want to check local salvage yards: www.car-part.com
Something else to consider would be upgrading to a UAS or UAQ radio if you already have an 8.4 radio. https://www.ramforum.com/threads/how-to-install-a-2018-4c-uaq-uas-radio-in-2013-2017-ram.116140/

You would measure diagonally corner to corner. Vertically would give you the height, an 8.4 screen isn't that tall.
