One other clue to the mystery I get power if I push the accessory I need all the way into the cigarette lighter and hold it there... Haven't had time to get behind it

Did you need to replace speakers with the head unit? My setup has the Bose speakers.

Thanks, I still have the stock radio and use a Bluetooth radio transmitter in the cigarette lighter so it only comes on when the truck comes on, but I might put one of these in the bottom power plug. I have the fancy radio and thought I have to replace speakers etc if I want to resolve the head unit.

Hey folks the lower power port in my truck works well, however, the cigarette lighter (upper). Will often take 10 seconds or so to power an accessory like a USB charger, and sometimes will go out for a minute. Any thoughts on theories on low/ intermittent power from the cigarette lighter?

Gotcha, probably not an option with no garage in central Idaho for a while.

Copy, A bit cold here, but could leave it a few days while we're out of town

Hey Folks, Not sure what it is called, but the piece of foam in the front of the door jam. (my internet is too slow to run the parts catalog) Anyone replaced or repaired one of these when it fell out? Wondering i can use adhesive to put it back in place. My truck is already loud enough in the wind, not sure I want anything else to add to the sound. Thanks

Hey folks someone has already repaired the seat heater element in my 2001, does anyone know of a replacement element I could buy? I'm seeing some generic ones for sale but wasn't sure if they will work with the factory switch.

Well swapped alternator's at NAPA this morning, no bench tester available. Drove home, right about the same numbers. as before battery .009 Alternator .019-.02. Have to finish packing up the house and drive to Idaho Saturday/Sunday so we will see how it goes.

Perfect timing I had just pulled in the driveway. Did the cruise around the block and got the same original data minus the spike on the alternator side. Ran over to Napa to swap it but the parts guy was running late have to do it in the morning.

Got the truck good and warmed up. Put the meter on the alternator. .008-.01 on the Battery, .019 on the alternator, although every 15 seconds or so it would jump up to .025-.030, then settle back to .019-.021 fairly quickly. Not sure if that was my hand etc... All accessories off. I called NAPA and they had one in stock, will try to stop by tonight or the morning and swap it out.

Nice, I'm thinking this would do the trick? https://www.amazon.com/Fluke-101-Multimeter-Resistance-Capacitance/dp/B00HE6MIJY/ref=asc_df_B00HE6MIJY/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=366343882692&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10264633338135990573&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9030767&hvtargid=pla-434551935004&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=76503872296&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=366343882692&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10264633338135990573&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9030767&hvtargid=pla-434551935004 We're moving to Cascade Idaho for a bit to FS housing, a 1930s ranger house. Planning to buy in Donnelly since my wife and I work for the FS. If we move there we can work in McCall or Cascade or New Meadows and never have to move again for work.....

Will do. This truck came with a bad edge tuner, they tested it and have me a big discount on this one.... I mainly like the gauges and alarms for my wife.

I forgot that the edge juice had a map sensor plug adapter. I unplugged all that plug the original map sensor in unplugged the edge juice reset the codes and went for a drive. Didn't get any codes but time will tell. Wow what a difference that truck makes without the tuner even running the tuner on zero and one seems like a big jump from stock.

So I unplugged the juice module cruise down the street to get a sandwich and had a maximum of maybe 1/4 throttle. Plugged it back in for the drive home and drove normal, is that me not resetting it correctly? Edit:. Got my scanner, pulled a P0237 code. Saw a list of things from Mopar1973man on a previous post
