#452 of 640 starting problem by daddyhawkes Dec 05, 2008 (9:13 pm)
I own a 2003 dodge ram diesel. It has about 106,000 miles on it. One morning it took longer to start than usual. This progressively got worse as days wen't on, until one morning it just would not start. I changed the fuel filter but that did not help. I then decided to plug the block heater in at night and it started everytime. All the fuses are good. I even replaced the fuel heater relay located on the filter housing. Now that it's colder at night even the block heater plugged in won't help it start. Can anyone help?

Replying to: daddyhawkes (Dec 05, 2008 9:13 pm) Have your batteries tested. There's a reason it takes two of them to crank the engine. If you have one good one and one bad one, you will see these hard-starting symptoms, even though once running, everything seems fine (the truck can run on one battery once the engine is operating). And the reason the block heater helped is, a warm engine will always start easier than a cold one... but as the batteries continue to lose charge, that won't help either.   Progressively hard starting has always been my cue to get a fresh pair of batteries with my Cummins Rams.   kcram - Pickups Host

Replying to: dignitMike (Dec 09, 2008 8:17 pm) After lots of research and testing, I found that I have only 10 volts coming from the ecm (engine control module) to the intake heater relays. This is not enough voltage to heat the elements. I don't know why. I'v been told that I might have a problem with the ecm.It sounds expensive!
#456 of 640 Engaging the 4x4 by mthorselover Dec 16, 2008 (4:07 pm)
My 4 wheel drive isn't engaging. Just recently the dashboard light would flicker. Then one day it wouldn't come on, but, I could tell that the 4 wheel drive was engaged and working. Is it a sensor problem or a fuse? A year or so ago, I had a strut break through the housing and take out my fuse box & broke some of the wires going in. Could my present problem still be a reprecustion from that incident?   Any suggestions of what to look for would be greatly appreciated. Replies to this message: kcram (Dec 17, 2008 7:37 pm)

Replying to: mthorselover (Dec 16, 2008 4:07 pm) Since your issue isn't specific to the Cummins diesel itself (the theme of this discussion), you may want to post your question at Dodge Ram Lighting and Electrical Issues for a quicker response.   kcram - Pickups Host
#458 of 640 03 dodge ram 3500 diesel wont start by jaysdodge Dec 28, 2008 (10:17 am)
i recently put a new engine in my truck. its a high output and the old engine was not. i get trouble codes p0514, p0633, p0192 , p0483 ,and p0480. These came with the new engine. At first it started fine and slowly became harder to start. The last time it started it was turned over for a minute or two. it turned over and sped up with time until it sounded like it was not turning over and not running quit turning over and it started running. left running for the next 12 hours put it in gear and it stalled. now it does not want to start is it the low voltage to fuel sensor p0192 or the skim key not entered p0633 or a combo of everything?
