    Foxwell OBD II Scanner

    So after 40 miles, it came back on. The shutters are open and I watched the coolant temp the whole time and it’s between 189-203. Doesn’t go higher than that. Is it bad if I keep driving it as is until I have some time later in the week to diagnose the problem?

    Foxwell OBD II Scanner

    I want to keep everything as is. I disconnected both the shutters and the air dam, cleaned any debris, and cleared the code. I connected everything back in right after. If there is still a problem, the engine light will come back on, correct?

    Foxwell OBD II Scanner

    Do I reset the code before plugging it back in? Also, is the code the bigger code or the small code with the $ symbol first on the scanner? Just want to make sure I’m reading the correct code.

    Foxwell OBD II Scanner

    Hello guys, the engine light came on today and I have this Foxwell scanner that I have but never used. Do I just plug this up to truck? I ask because I think I saw a video at one time talking about a bypass cable. Not sure if I need that or not.

    Transmission Oil change and other fluid changes.

    My mechanic that I trust is aware of the temperature monitoring. He said it’s very similar to the Toyotas (he specializes in Toyotas but has worked on other manufacturers). He brought that up himself without me saying anything, so that’s a good thing. I’ll do the transfer case and diffs myself...

    Transmission Oil change and other fluid changes.

    I’m planning to keep this truck for another 8-10 years. So I’ll definitely do it. I’ll have my mechanic do a drain and flush for the transmission oil. I’ll buy the pan and the oil from Mopar. He does not believe in flushes so that’s a good thing. He said it’s a scam and makes it worse on your...

    Transmission Oil change and other fluid changes.

    Ok. The cabin filter, air filter, and rotation of tires, I always do, so that’s good to know. Seems like I never done fluid changes for the front and rear differentials and transfer case. I’ll get with my mechanic on that. So you think I should change the transmission oil and filter at this...

    Transmission Oil change and other fluid changes.

    Hello guys, I have a 2019 1500 non Etorque and I have never changed the transmission oil or filter for it. I’m curious if you guys think I should change it now doing a drain and fill, not a flush. I have 120,000 miles on it but they are mostly highway miles. If you guys do suggest it, I’ll be...

    Increasing Aspect Ratio???

    My stock tire size is 285/45/22. I’d like some more sidewall on my new tires. I have stock suspension on a Laramie crew cab 4x4. Am I able to install 285/50/22 or even 285/55/22 tires on my truck with out rubbing it anything? I’ll be using the same stock rim as well so the width and wheel size...

    Need some help fellas…

    Now you got me worried with reading about the vacuum fill system. I’ll just schedule a flush and have them replace the damaged hose as well.
