I recently purchased a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab. It came with the radio that has Sat, 6 CD Changer, AM/FM, and etc. A week later I went back to the dealer and bought the RB1 Nav radio and had it installed. I now have the old (new) radio and would like to give it to my son for his 2005 Ram pickup. Can anyone tell me how to remove his old radio and install mine in his truck? I'd greatly appreciate any help that I could get.

Replying to: gmperry (Oct 16, 2005 6:30 am) Remove the screw just above the bag holder, the one between the center console and the glove box. Open the ashtray and the cupholder. Pull straight out on the plastic center console (the one that goes around the radio and has the cubby hole in it. It will seem like it is going to break, but if you pull directly out it will not. Disconnect the electrical connectors from the cigar lighter and A/C Panel. There are four screws that hold the radio in, two on both sides. Remove the screws and pull the radio out (it will be in snugly). The antennae is the tricky part. You must push the antennae wire in, then pull the outer collar back, then pull out the antennae wire. (It is a locking device). |

When i put my truck in 4 high or 4  low, the transfer case engages the front drive line, it goes into lock in position and begins to spin but, my left and front wheels don't spin. It feels like i only have two wheel drive. Any help appreciated.

Have a 1996 Dodge Ram 4x4 sport 318 manual shift with 100,000 miles on it. Was going to work the other morning died out on me. Tried to start it just crank over and would not fire. No engine light came on. Got it towed to my mechanic, when he got to it later in the morning it started no problem so when I went to pick it up started again no problem. Took it out die just down the block. So again got it towed to the shop mechanic started to work on it would idle but if you pressed on gas it would die out. Appears to be flooding itself out. My mechanic did lots of test everything ok fuel pump working good pressure also in injectors. Appears to be dumping fuel into system to flood it out. Replace four differnt sensors (map, tps, cold and one other still same thing. Also replaced distibutor cap and point/ Also no codes came up stated there was no problems encounter. Help! |

I asked this question awhile back but didn't get any response....figured it was worth another shot. Here's the deal....the fan/blower that blows heat or AC in my truck is tempermental. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it won't turn on at all. Took it to the dealer and they supposedly checked it out...of course it was working when I brought it in. They tested all the wires etc (so they say) and found nothing wrong. They speculated it might be a dead spot or dirty brushes in the fan motor. I can drive the truck with it not working, turn the ignition off, and then start it back up and it works fine. One other mechanic thought it might be a connection issue with the ignition switch. Anyone have a similar problem or an idea how to remedy? The dealer suggests a new fan which runs about $330 installed. Winter is coming and I need heat!!!
