    Interior Lights not working

    I had the same problem. Pulled F30, F31, F33 under the steering column. Cycled the ignition while they were out for good measure. Waited 5 minuets and reinstalled the fuses. It worked! Thanks!

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    One thing to remember with Koons, they may get you a GOOD price, but maybe not the BEST price. Only way to get the best price is to competitively bid several dealers in your market. Koons is in my market (DC) and I found a dealer that under bid them by $3k in December 2018.

    MOPAR Drop In Bed Liner - Any Info?

    I called the dealership parts dept and had them search the local area for one. I drove over and had it in less than an hour. Install was quick.

    MOPAR Drop In Bed Liner - Any Info?

    Love the Mopar! Paid $297 with the Mopar coupon. I printed it and they took 15% off at the dealership. https://www.mopar.com/en-us/savings/coupons.html

    What is everyone using for stake pocket hole covers

    I have the Bull Rings with the RetraxOne MX. Gun metal finish. No problems using them with the cover. The Bull Rings are handy when you need a couple extra anchor points. No complaints.

    PUTCO 60” rear light bar PICTURES

    The Blade has only 1 input wire per side for brake/turn. If you wire the light bar directly to the truck turn signals, you remove the brake signal from the circuit. The Blade turn signal is now in sync with the truck turn signal but, you’ve disconnected the Blade brake function. If you wire it...

    PUTCO 60” rear light bar PICTURES

    Rick, does the light bar illuminate with the brakes? With a Putco Blade and the RAM LED taillights you either get: 1) no turn delay and no Putco brake light or 2) the turn delay and Putco brake light Just wondering. Nice truck BTW!

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Congrats, Gulfraider06! We were getting those numbers late last December too. Two years of price data on these trucks shows that if you can get around 18% off MSRP (OTD/no trade), you’ve got the best deal in your market.

    Ram pricing - Dealer Cost Assessment

    The only way to really know if you’ve got a good deal is to competitively bid similar vehicles in your market that are on the lot. Some dealerships will have met their monthly/quarterly/yearly sales goals and some will not. One will be within a few vehicles of a massive sales incentive. That’s...

    Outside Temperature inaccuracy

    Since the ambient temp sensor is in the drivers side mirror housing, I always consider the reading to be the temperature of the door (not the outside air). i.e. hey look, the door is 35 degrees today!

    Tailgate light bar

    Good work investigating! I do have the LED taillights and the light bar does not light with the brakes. I guess its a choice of either no turn signal delay or having the light bar work with the brakes. Since my wires are all shrink wrapped and zip tied, I'll wait for Putco to develop a workaround.

    Tailgate light bar

    I can't recall from memory but, that's what I wrote back in May in this thread. If you have a voltage meter, you should get 12v DC on that pin of the connector. It will cycle on/off when you turn on the blinker. I'd have to refer to the Blade instructions for which wires you connect to on the...

    Tailgate light bar

    I can’t fully remember but, I think I just plugged in the Blade Quick Connect Harness for the brake lights. The only deviation from the instructions was to splice in a wire from the Blade turn signal wire to the truck taillight assembly (which puts them on the same voltage signal and removes the...

    Tailgate light bar

    You're going to love it! I'm always impressed when I see a truck with a light bar. Super cool!

    Tailgate light bar

    A couple of us wired their light bars directly to the tail lights to eliminate the delay. It's covered earlier in this thread. https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/tailgate-light-bar.3298/page-10#post-134690 What questions do you have?

    Joined the cracked windshield club today!

    Safelite guy told me there's no need to re-calibrate if the cameras are not disconnected. I took his word for it. I've not noticed anything strange since the windshield was replaced.
