2nd Generation Dodge Non-Powertrain

Hi everyone, I recently picked up a new to me 2001 ram 2500. The truck is a 2001 non sport 2500 qclb 4x4 auto. I bought the truck a few weeks ago seeing as it was pretty well maintained with very minimal rust. This is the only electrical problem on the truck. The right front parking lamp does not work with the lights on causing the right blinker to blink fast and cluster has the right signal illuminated with lights on. Its not the bulb or socket. I noticed when i opened the hood when the underhood light comes on so does the right front parking lamp. How can this happen?

Anybody ever use one of these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N6V9RZR/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A383C3IVZAZ90D&psc=1 Would it have to be used in conjunction with some other gizmo or can it be hooked up and a spot made for it? Hard to beat for $20!

I have a 1998.5 and have owned my truck for 13 years and only activated the RWAL twice and it didn't work both times. I now have a ABS light on and changed the sensor on the rear end with on joy. I have had it to all of the dealers within 100 miles of my house and it appears that their DRB111s can talk to it but are not functional enough to read the abs module or reset the tire size ( all if them looked really beat). My first question is there a way to determine if the module in the dash is bad or the hydraulic unit under the hood is bad. The second question is only because I am leaving on a 5000 mile trip in 8 days and I would like to kill the ABS light on the dash and s…

Needing specs or something close to the following - metal dash frame to fire wall screws/bolts I think there's 5 or 6 of them up across the top -the 2 little nuts that secure the port with all the HVAC vacuum lines, threads onto two little plastic nubs. Gonna go to the hardware store fri, I hope someone has an idea on the size at least, pics work too. Thanks fellas!

Last week I bought a HID kit; couldn't justify the full projector upgrade at this time. Saturday I popped the hood to plan my installation and can't figure out which is the least evil of the few mounting options I see available. I like the idea in Me78569's article to mount the brain on the passenger side, but still could use some advice on where to mount everything. I do not wish to reinvent a wheel and learn lessons the hard way if I can learn from someone else's experience! Could one of you with such a system take some photos of how you mounted the brain box, ballasts, etc. and post them here? Or send a link to a previous thread. I did a search but may have misse…

Upgraded my brake cylinders a while back. Had a short video on it. Seems to have made quite a difference even though some were negative about it. Video

Hi all, I’m having an issue with my 1997 dodge 2500 4x4 Cummins. Issue started after I let the truck sit over winter months. The issue is when I turn the key to the on position my ASD relay along with the trans relay in the PDC tick very fast and loud. The ticking is accompanied by all my dash lights flickering to the same speed the relays are ticking. The truck starts and shuts down with the key, just won’t go into drive or reverse. Everything worked great when parked. Thanks in advance for any info\advice. Also this is my first post so not sure if I put it in the correct place. Be nice and steer me in the right direction if I posted incorrectly!

I have a glowshift egt gauge that has started acting weird. I hate these gauges and will never buy another, but I'm curious if it is fried or if something is interfeering with it. It works normally, but when under light acceleration or maintaining constant speed, it pegs out at max temps. Once I let off the throttle, goes to current temperature, or if I'm more aggressive in acceleration, it returns to normal temp also. I'm horrible with electronics, so I need your help to determine if its failing or not. I've had other glowshift gauges in the past, all have failed, this is my last remaining one. The last one the needle just bounced everywhere, there was no …

I'm following the ac wiring diagram on this website: Key in the on position. With the ac selector switch in the "face only" position and the blend door on all the way blue I have power at the LTGRN/WT wire at the PCM. This indicates to the PCM I want AC and there is not high pressure condition. When I tested the brown wire beside the LTGRN/WT there was no power coming from the low pressure switch, meaning again that there is no reason the compressor shouldnt start. I tested the DRKBL/ORG wire that is leaving the PCM. When I'm first putting the probe on the wire it flashes green but then goes away when I make solid contact on the w…

My head light won't shut off , only head lights not the tail light or cab lights, and my high beam staying on, and the blue light comes on in the inside. I have to pull the fuse to shut them off but only one fuse not both.

After a month long road trip there is a few things wrong the oddest is the heating and cooling selection. the truck is limited to either full hot, or full cold and with cold it’s AC only, not just drawing in outside air. it’s the same regardless of fan speed, it’s also gotten “stuck” on one or the other but if you leave it selected to the other long enough, or shut the truck off and turn it back on it’ll go to what is selected. any ideas? All vents work, fan speeds no issues. I also have a heater treater installed but that was put in years ago.

Where to buy stock mirrors, I ask this because evidently there are cheap replicas. My new to me truck has some really junk mirrors. They vibrate to beat hell and just seem thin compared to my other 1 ton. Thanks

So, back in about 2014, my 12v was in a wreck. It wrecked the steering box beyond repair. So, I replaced it with a Borgeson upgraded steering box. At the time, I had not considered anything like the 99 HD steering upgrade or a steering box stabilizer. 6 years passed, I forgot, and now I have parts I cant really use. I purchased a steering box stabilizer and the 99 upgraded parts. I did not purchase a new pittman arm because I thought it wasn't required. The taper is wrong for the pittman are to drag link. I think I can make the stabilizer work. So, does anybody have a part number for a pittman arm and maybe a steering box stabilizer that would wor…

First post! Did the search and couldn't find the answer. I have a slow fuel leak around the rubber fuel heater seal on top of fuel filter canister. Can I seal it with something or just yank it out and replace it? No diagram in my Haynes manual. Developed same time my raptor pump jumped up about 5 psi. I adjusted it back, but the leak has not slowed. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Anyone have a source for OEM rubber tailgate hinge bushings? I bought some from Amazon, they're plastic. Don't think they'll last long plus out of the 4 pieces that came in the kit only one of them will fit anything. I looked on LMC website and seems that they now sell plastic parts as well. I would prefer to have rubber one like dodge put in there. Thanks in advance.

The project I'm working on that might be of interest to this forum is the 1948 Dodge COE with 1996 Cummins 5.9 I've got the structural and body fit problems resolved; current focus is on the harness; I've got a 1998 (12V) complete wiring harness, it appears that the engine harness is a pretty easy adaptation; now considering the harness came out of a traditional Ram 2500 I've had to make provision for re-routing some branches of the harness to provide for the much different layout required for the COE. My intent was to "strip" un-needed wires from the body/interior systems; specifically ABS, Airbag System, Seatbelt electrical components and Instrument components. I int…

I kicked my light wire for my gauge light and grounded it out. I lost my cluster lights and markers lights. Does anybody know which fuse it uses. Im at work and cant get my fsm to work on my phone.

My reverse lights were not working, once in a while one would come on but it was intermittent. I replaced bulbs and still same. Finally I put 2 and 2 together and looked under the rear of the truck (once I again took notice of the hole in the side of the inner bed wall that looked like a trailer plug) and saw that some dumb dumb had spliced into the wires going to the tail lights on both sides to power this plug in the bed that is no longer there. I removed the splices and the wires had corroded so no power was getting through. Surprised the tails and signals worked at all. Now that the splices are done correctly and shrink wrapped all is good. Since I live …
