    MIRROR TURN SIGNAL OUT

    2019 Ram 1500 Big Horn. Left (driver's side) mirror turn signal is dead. Are these easy or a pain to replace?

    Finally, the Map Update - IF you can call it that...

    Finally got to order the much-waited-for Navigation Map update. It arrived today and I instantly installed it. It took 90 minutes to complete, with the engine running the entire time - but gas is cheap, right!? Anyway, I took it for a test drive to see what local updates were included. The...

    Absurd Map Update Situation

    So I've been getting these promotional emails from U-Connect for several weeks/months now, pestering me to upgrade my maps. It's a 2019 with the original maps, and a lot of roads have changed around here since then, so I figured I'd pop for the "savings" and do the upgrade. I follow the...

    Any good way of sealing tailgate?

    Has anyone found a good way of sealing the tailgate so that water doesn't leak in? Particularly the cavernous spaces at the top between the tailgate and the sidewalls. I tried one of the ESI seal kits, but it didn't even come close to filling those gaps at the top. I have a BakFlip MX4 tonneau...

    Can replacement rear coil springs increase cargo capacity?

    I've seen several vendors carry replacement rear coil springs, with 0" lift. The choices I've seen are 2058 lb capacity and 2480 lb capacity. Are either of these ratings greater than what the factory springs are rated? And if so, would the greater than factory rating increase the vehicle's cargo...

    A/C is on, even when it's off.

    Not sure why this is, or if I'm the only one experiencing this, but even when I set Auto (climate control) to off and AC to off, it still blows cold A/C air from the vents. The only way I seem to be able to turn the A/C off is to press the Off button, which shuts down the climate control system...

    Geez, ANOTHER Update!? Already!?!?

    Some of you may recall my "Update" thread from February this year (Update?). It was several weeks of my life I'll never get back, and a trip to the dealer to replace my Media Hub before the truck was back to 'normal'. So imagine the feeling of utter dread I experienced as I parked at work at...

    What version of Uconnect?

    For any of you who had the Uconnect update that was distributed this week, what version of the software do you now have? I'm trying to see if I'm current, or if I'm still on the previous version. I tried checking the Uconnect website. It said my VIN was up to date, but I don't trust it. Just...

    Update?

    Had a strange occurrence this morning. As I arrived at work, a notification appeared on my screen about performing an update, asking if I wanted to update now or schedule later. I selected now, but then realized - I have to get into the office and start work, so I need to shut the truck off, AND...

    Level Kit Spacer Thickness

    I just ordered and received a Motofab 2 1/2" leveling kit for my 2019 Ram 1500 (New Body Style). What arrived was two spacers, each 1 and 9/16" thick. (and hardware) Also included was a warning card that stated that even though the spacers are not as thick as the stated lift of the kit, when...

    Media Default

    I have the 4C Nav UConnect w/8.4" screen, and I've noticed that whenever I select Media as the source, it defaults to the CD player - which curiously seems to be at the end(bottom) of the menu, and by the way - the one least used. I listen mostly to Bluetooth, which is at the beginning (top) of...

    Muffler Shop?

    Can anyone in the Fredericksburg, VA area recommend a good muffler shop? I have a Flowmaster 50 Series Deltaflow muffler muffler I need installed. Just replacing the factory muffler.

    Holes in bed plugged - Tonneau drain

    My BakFlip MX4 is arriving today. My 2019 BigHorn has a spray-in bedliner, and the MX4 drain tubes are supposed to be routed through pre-existing holes in the bed, just forward of the front tie-down loops. The problem is...where the hole is supposed to be is a small bump that's covered with the...

    Tonneau Covers in Short Supply?

    I ordered a BakFlip MX4 cover last Tuesday (10/17), and the merchants website said it would ship between 10/19-10/21. Well 10/21 was yesterday and when I didn't get a shipping notice, I called customer service to ask if they had any idea when it would ship. The woman I spoke with let me know...

    Do Sirius Subscriptions Convey?

    I just bought a 2019 Ram 1500 Big Horn Sport used, from a Chevrolet dealership. The original window sticker from the factory indicates that in addition to the Uconnect 4C - 8.4" display, the truck came with several Sirius services, as listed: Uconnect® 4C NAV with 8.4–Inch Display $795 5–Year...
