Truck Off - Press Brake and Push Button To Start

[scichocki]

Update, dealer found the shift control module was staying awake on the bus causing the dash lights to stay. Two weeks so far so good. Took they about 14 hours of troubleshooting with FCA tech online with them

I am having the dead battery and push to start lighting up also. Comes on for a few minutes and goes off. The cycle keeps repeating.

Mine is a 2019 1500 lone star . Same problem the push to start light keeps cycling off and on. I have also noticed the push ignition doesn't always go all the way to off sometimes when you push it

I am a first time ram owner and I am not impressed. I miss my Ford and after seeing all these complaints for the same problem I am having, I wonder why there has not been a recall.

There won’t be a recall since there’s no threat of injury or death with the issue

I pulled up on my brake pedal, turned my ram wifi hot spot on and off and activated my go services then cancelled and it seemed to fix the problem???

Did this work?

For me, it was the proximity sensor. With the truck parked in the garage the FOB was too close to truck. Turned off proximity approach in setting and no more dead battery.

Did this fix the problem?

F24 in the IPDC on my 2019.

Is this the fuse?

Hi just having the same issues with 23 Ram classic we disconnected the negative for 24hrs and some how our Sirius radio and unconnect is completely gone, but the problem with the push brake + has disappeared, wondering do you have Sirius radio or unconnect ? Maybe this Sirius Guardian is causing the problem as it has a remote start feature, just a thought try deleting Sirius Guardian see if that solves the issue. We are waiting now to see if this issue comes back before reprogramming Sirius back on

Yes, I do have Sirius. Not sure how to delete Sirius Guardian.
