Started after replacing battery. The keys will be far away from it but it’s acting like I’m in it and ready to “push break to start” and will drain battery. I’ve noticed this has been happening with other rams but no solution I can find. Took it to dealer and they charged me $1000 for absolutely no reason saying they “fixed” it but didn’t. Please help :(

As stupid as this sounds you could try the battery disconnect reset trick even though you just replaced your battery:
  1. Allow yourself an hour and a half of time
  2. Park truck outside giving shark fin on roof visibility to the sky, and turn it off
  3. Pop the hood open, exit the vehicle and close the door
  4. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery
  5. Leave the vehicle like this for 30 minutes and dont open the door or do anything to the vehicle
  6. Reconnect the negative terminal and wait an hour. Again leave the vehicle alone, dont open the door or do anything to the vehicle during this hour.
  7. After the hour all systems will be re-initialized and this reset is complete.
I guess you will be able to look in the window to see if your displays turn off after a short time. I hope they do. This little trick resets a lot of systems so it may have an effect. Good luck.
