I'm new to this forum and I'm hoping someone has seen or heard of the problem I am having. I will try to briefly describe it below.
2016 Ram Long Horn 3500 dually 4x4 full size crew cab with Cummings 6.7 l. turbo diesel and Aisin 6 speed transmission. Purchased used, Ram north Florida dealer 7/2019 with 27645 miles.
12/18 shift anomaly: hard shift, trans. lights switch to yellow, check engine light illuminates. Brought to south, south Ram dealer. Dealer found fault code(which not stated) Updated software; Reflashed trans. control module did quick learn procedure. Mileage 31650
5/19 Shift error occurs at 70mph, clunk heard and felt in trans., truck down shifts, trans light change to yellow, check engine light illuminates. Pulled off highway, stopped and restarted, ck. engine remains, but else normal. Brought to south west Ram dealer, fault code 0706 stored. “Preformed diag. test and also followed star case S1721000017”(?), Repositioned main harness behind left front wheel, cleaned connections i255 and range sensor. Mileage 39425
Error reoccurs on way home. Dealer now replaces range sensor (“intermittent open in range sensor causing p0706 dtc”)
10/20 problem reoccurs. Brought to north Florida Ram dealer. Code 0796 present. Dealer replaces range sensor under 2 year shop warranty. Mileage 44661
7/21 Problem occurs again. Fault code 0706 stored, Mileage 46397
I would appreciate any positive feedback anyone has
