Exact same issue here. Just assumed the ticking sound and smell that I heard on cold starts was the exhaust manifolds until a forum member suggested I check these flanges. Checking tomorrow first thing. I had my drivers side replaced about a year ago when I cold started my Ram and sounded like...

I'll check these out, thank you!

I'm going to check that first thing tomorrow. I actually saw the exhaust near the y pipe and just assumed it was the exhaust manifold issue. I've already replaced the gasket on the drivers side y pipe about a year ago when I cold started the truck and sounded like it had open headers lol thank you!!

I live in Upstate New York and we have had some very frigid temperatures lately. Had the truck for 2 years now and I noticed on cold starts, loud ticking, exhaust leaking into the cabin, and exhaust sounding differently - all on the passenger side - but goes away when warmed up. My question is...

Got it, thanks! So if they all have their own 2 button connector and none of my rear window is being defrosted, then it's probably safe to assume it's fuse related maybe? I haven't looked yet, but that'll be my next step. Also noticing that it doesn't seem like my rear view mirror defroster...

Thank you for this. Just bought a 2021 Laramie Crew Cab last February and just noticed the rear defrost not working. It's gotta be the tether. Is the black attachment the only connection to the rear window defrost or do the other 2 windows have one? Any help would save me a trip to the...
