    Taillight bulb replacement - Bighorn

    I just kept the halogen signals. I didn’t want to chance it again and have to troubleshoot it myself. Let me know if you run into any issues.

    Taillight bulb replacement - Bighorn

    Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. The switchbacks will not function correctly on the 5th Gens. I went through a rough time when they started malfunctioning and it all tied into the side marker light. When I got a hold of Lasfit they informed me that the switch backs would not work...

    Truck doesn’t recognize when Tailgate is open.

    Yeah I figured it’s going to end up being some sort of recall. If it’s a programming issue, it’s going to end up being a big problem.

    Truck doesn’t recognize when Tailgate is open.

    Agreed. They tried to tell me that when I switch my LEDs it was causing issues. Found out it was a bad OEM bulb through my own troubleshooting. FYI if you ever have a problem with either front turn signal not illuminating at night or intermittent, check the side marker bulbs. Apparently that’s...

    I’d have them put the OEM bulbs back in and see if it fixes the issue rather than chasing every wire prior to that.

    Got the truck back today. They had a RAM rep come out with some special computer that dealerships don’t have and reconfigured that trucks computer. Everything works again. Only took a week.

    I got an update yesterday. They believe that the trucks computer is not registering that it has a tailgate. It requires a Chrysler engineer to come in on Monday or Tuesday and look at the computer and may have to write and upload code to the trucks computer system. Basically like a computer...

    Truck doesn’t recognize when Tailgate is open.

    I called yesterday and they are still “troubleshooting it” with RAM trying to figure out what’s causing it. It’s been a solid 3 days so it’s a little concerning at this point. Good thing they gave me this sweet Dodge Caravan as my loner. I think that pisses me off more than anything at this point.

    Hadn’t received a call today which means they still haven’t figured it out. Maybe it is a switch maybe not. I dunno, this is something they need to figure out.

    Truck doesn’t recognize when Tailgate is open.

    Yesterday I got a call from the service guy. They had been working on it all day and are still scratching their heads. They crazy thing that he said was, the mechanic went out to his truck which was the same year and model to compare something and noticed his was doing the same thing! Which he...

    Dropped it at the dealer today. I’ll let you know what they say.

    I’m glad it’s not just me. I’ve checked everything I can think and can’t figure it out. I’m taking it to the dealer.
