New turbocharge by blackone
Feb 07, 2009 (9:40 am)
Reply
I have taken my 2007 RAM diesel in at least four times now due to the infamous engine light and finally they said they had to replace the turbo on it. That has been about 800 miles ago and the engine light has not come on. I only have about 13000 miles on my truck. Has anyone else had satisfactory results with the engine light not coming on after replacing the turbocharger? I am hoping this was the magic bullet but realize that it is too soon to know yet.

2005 Dodge 3500 won't start by gwt3383

Someone please help me!! My truck became hard to start in one day. It was hard to crank over the next 2 days and now it won't start at all. This is what I have done thus far.
1. Changed fuel filter
2. Changed air filter
3. Replaced lift pump in tank
4. Test the high pressure pump (volume) and it is ok
5. Checked grid heater and it is working
6. Plugging in the block heater dose not help
7. Have the following error codes: P0073, P0107 & P0336
Occasionally, I can get it to start and it runs good with no missing, etc. but I am afraid to drive it anywhere because it won't start after it cools off.
What should I do next?

All three error codes are for sensors -
P0073-ambient Air Temperature Sensor Circuit High
P0107-manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Circuit Low
P0336-crankshaft Position Sensor Performance
This is probably a job for the dealer. You likely spent unnecessary money on some of the items you replaced.
 
I had an issue on my 2005 3500 where the Battery Temp Sensor was annoyed and would not allow the truck to start until it got its act together (the repeated cranking likely created some heat in the battery that cured whatever was ailing the sensor), but it only happened once.

Not yet - I got it started once and it runs fine after it starts. The problem is just during start up. I ran it for about an hour around town, etc. I returned home and killed it and haven't gotten it cranked since then. It wouldn't even crank immediately after shutting it off. Do you know what the error codes are telling me? I was told by a hometown mechanic that P0336 is "crankshaft position performance sensor". No one around here has the equipment to test this vehicle. Our Dodge dealership closed about 2 years ago and I have to travel quite a distance to another one.
 
P.S. The few times that I started it was when I have had the block heater plugged in even though it has not been below 40 degrees at any time. This whole problem came on immediately. It started and ran anytime with no problems on one day and the next day it did not want to start easily and now it is very difficult to get it going.
 
Thanks for your inquiry. Any ideas?

I have a 2008 and at about 11,000 miles I started having the engine light problems with turbo issues after 6 times in the shop they replaced the turbo. I have put about 10,000 miles on the since the replacement and have not had any problems with the light or the turbo I still hope this corrected my problem
