Electronic Computer Module Problem with ram 1500 2019 Laramie Limited, had the issue a year ago and posted thread but it seems that every year I’m dealing with dead battery fault. Driving normally and nothing seems to be going on no indication of a low battery or voltage Next day after sitting overnight parked ignition off. Wake up the next morning and key fob is not detected, truck is raise to the off-road position , have use manual door key to open driver doors, no lights on the dashboard and console display. At this point vehicle is completely shutdown..
Tried to jump start vehicle “All electronics dash console light up, engage start button “A loud Pop” as if blowing a fuse or when there’s a grounding issue. …Everything recycles and then goes completely dark again…The dealership has not come up with a precise diagnosis only explain that their electronic specialist has to do research and get back to them. I would like to know how to escalate this issue..,
Truck has less than 50K miles, and has been towed 5 times because of the same issue.

Had that happen couple times, begun to chase down the parasitic current draw and the truck started to work again.
Measured 1.4 amps being drawn by the internal power distribution center after the truck had supposedly gone to "sleep"
I don't leave home without a hefty spare battery and jump cables.
