Great summary, a lot of info here from earlier this year. https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/has-anyone-added-a-factory-trailer-brake-controller-to-a-2025-yet.59938/

I'm still on my OEM battery in my 2019. Now that I rarely drive it, it's on the battery tender a day every other week. I'll do the H8 at Walmart when it finally dies, that seems to be the best deal.

Hopefully your electrical connector is dirty and cleaning it will work. Mine was covered in oil - the previous owner let the dealership change the oil and the oil filter drips right on it. Cleaning it up and the new connector resolved my issue.

It says it's the actuator and it fixed my problem, which is exactly what you describe. Did you clean out the electrical connector with electrical contact cleaner? Have you spoken with a dealership parts department? That would be my next call.

You could try a new actuator (I bought my Dorman on Amazon). It sounds like you did a good job cleaning out the connector, my next step would be another actuator just to confirm you didn't get a faulty part.

Ram said no, have you contacted a lemon law attorney?

Sharp truck! I drove a few hours to buy from them as well.

GM and Ford have done this during covid (and post covid). It's says right on the window sticker "deleted xxx" and the price deduction. Glad you realized this. Some have been saying this for a while now...

All parts were available to build his truck so it was scheduled and built quickly. No one here has insight to parts restrictions, but in the past 30-45 days from order to delivery were pretty normal...

I haven't felt mine, but they are likely designed to warm up just above freezing, which is all that's needed to melt the ice. I'd wait until there is ice on them before worrying that they don't work.

Welcome to 5thGenRams. It's an internet forum, have some thick skin and don't take it to seriously. Seriously though, the 5th Gen Rams are very sweet trucks. Many of us have known this for years. Glad you figured this out and picked one up!

Same here. IMO, pretty funny to see all the new members wowed with features their '25s have, that many of us have had for years...

IMO find a clean, low mile '22 with the Hemi. You'll get a great truck, with a proven engine, without the eTorque BS you'd get on a '24...

Frequent oil changes are cheap insurance. Do the first one early.

Hearing the noise still?

Month/year.

Great reply @Willwork4truck, now to archive it away in case I need it someday...

Sounds like the light on the top of the steering wheel in GMs with Super Cruise.

Does it still make the noise if you leave it in 2WD?

Sounds like a new mirror is needed.
