I've had these similer problems with my 03 dodge ram I took it to Dodge thinking it must be in the wiring and after they had it for a week they finally come to the conclusion that the forward control module and instrument cluster is bad and they are the only place that you can get the computers programmed at I'm now in search of the parts they say the serial numbers must match and this all started with the factory radio it would quit working and when I'd shut the truck off I could her the cd player running then it stared messing up my gauges they work one moment and the next time i went out to the truck the wouldnt and the final thing was my truck doesnt have anti theft but when i went to get in it the lights started flashing and horn blowing it took dodge a week to figur it out since i dont have a anti theft device they were puzzeled

Can you please tell me where the temperature sensor is located that connects to the overhead console display? Mine consistenly reads 30 to 40 degrees warmer than actural outside temperature. Perhaps free air is blocked or sensor is mud caked. I can't inspect it until I can locate the darned thing. Thanks

I have lost my electrical for electrical mirrors, dome lights and radio. I have checked all fuses inside and under the hood. Cannot find the problem and am frustrated. Any help out there would be appreciated.

It sounds like your heater is shorted, they only way to fix this is replacement, but first follow the cord to the block where the heater is to make sure it is not chaffed through any where. one common mistake diesel engine owners make is starting the engine with the block heater still plugged in. always unplug before starting!

Parking/taillight relay by kcs88jr

Curious to know if anybody has ever had or heard of a problem that when you shut off your headlights, the parking & taillights stay on , so you have to remove the relay in order for them to shut off; and then when you need your headlights,(so you don't get pulled over, for no taillights) you have to put this relay back in? It's quite a pain, but I was told that I need to get a part, that only the dealer has, $150 and then it would cost another $150 to have a garage put it in; ($300). All my other lights & stuff work.

I have a 2004 Ram1500 Quad cab, my parking lights won't go off. I swapped fuses but the problem remains. Any ideas?
