This does sound like battery in fob could be weak or near death. The battery is very easy to change. This video describes it:
Battery Install
It is a CR2032. All the issues you describe are indicative of the battery in your FOB. Especially when it won't start without touching the fob to the...
You have to call AT&T and set up your vehicle plan with them. I know it was $10+++ to add it to my AT&T account when I had them as a cell phone carrier. When I switched to T-Mobile I closed that account so I no longer have the vehicle hotspot. I don't miss it. It was unreliable at best. I...
It would be nice if there was a message to tell you why it didn't remote start. Sometimes it will show a message (see below). There are multiple conditions that will affect the ability to remote start. One is definitely available voltage. Another is if there is an active CEL. Although with...
While visiting and driving in Italy I was sure there was no way I could drive my RAM on the Italian roads. Especially in the city. I saw no US made pick-up trucks on the road whatsoever. And I was looking. Am I off-base here?
Are you sure your damage from a water leak carries a $1000 deductible? That sounds more like a collision coverage deductible. Mine was $100 because the damage was a result of a window.
I have done two batteries on mine. I wouldn't bother with trying to avoid losing power. The vehicle will recover just fine if you do it the way I said.
Disconnecting the battery and reconnecting will cause some systems to reset. If you want to let the systems re-initialize and not deal with anything do this:
Do the swap outside with visibility to the sky. After reconnecting the battery, just leave the truck alone for about an hour. Don't...
The guy is asking about water intrusion because he suspects the RF Hub. If the FOB isn't communicating properly it could cause the issue you are seeing. Problem here is you could replace the component yourself but it needs programming to your FOBs that only the dealer can do, you can't DIY that.
And well you should be disappointed. The whole window thing is a debacle on the part of Stellantis. I had the leak, but mine was the seal not a crack in the frame. Killed my RF Hub and had mold in the carpet because it had been leaking for years. For me from the dealer it was "You have the...
Something I don't get is why USB connections don't have any kind of cable lock in their standard connectors. Think of a RJ45 connection. It has a small clip that engages and holds it in there. Maybe it's because that would defeat the convenience of a USB device. Unless you build your own...
Well I am seriously impressed with your diagnosis and capability to fix. Fantastic.
I wonder if water got to it. It resembles the RF Hub enclosure which we know is not water proof.
I've never heard of this one. Sorry you are experiencing this. It's never convenient to take it back to the dealer but that's your only option. Hopefully they can quickly fix it.
My dealer had a "glass guy" but it wasn't Safelite. I am sure you are right that they contract it out. I just felt more confident with Safelite directly. It was less money than the dealer quoted me, but they also used an aftermarket window. But with the warranty I am ok with it, although I...
This is why I took mine to Safelite. Thats all they do is windows and glass. The dealer wanted to do my window but I decided to go with Safelite for obvious reasons. It also came with a lifetime warranty that also includes any consequential damage if the window ever leaks. I do understand...
Haven't seen the issue but have you tried a soft reset?
Park outside, unlock vehicle, open hood, using a 10mm wrench remove the negative wire from terminal of the battery
Leave disconnected for 30 minutes
Reconnect the wire and leave truck alone for an hour. Don't open the door, NOTHING.
After...
Funny how the leak is a manufacturing assembly/installation process issue. Safelite knows how to install a back window so it won't leak. I said funny, make that hilarious.
I second this. Although I didn't know about the dome light trick. I just leave mine disconnected for a half hour. Then reconnect and leave alone for an hour, not opening a door or doing anything else. Then give it a try.
