Hi
Does the 22 inch wheels deactive Or it affects the eco mode?
Because of the size And weight affects the transmission!!

*Almost 2 years and NO eco light come on
 
The wheels and tires on a RAM Rebel is actually 1" larger and heavier than the 22" package trucks, and my Eco light comes on all the time.

Re-verify that you turned it on, and it should come on when light cruising on both street and highway. My light comes on from as high as 70 mph all the way down to about 10 mph. I have an aftermarket muffler, I can tell easily when my truck goes in MDS, matches with the Eco light.

I try but no light comes (eco)
 
Are you using tow/haul mode or the gear limiter? Either of those disable MDS
 
Which viscosity oil are you using? People have reported that thicker oil will prevent MDS from engaging
 
Eco light comes on for me when I'm driving around town (especially down a hill). Haven't seen it at speeds above 65.
 
My ECO light is on around 35-45 MPH but never seen it on over 65 MPH - BTW, and I have 22 inch wheels
 
His location says Kuwait...I believe the over seas sales of Rams do not have this for some reason. I seem to remember reading that somewhere.
 
Is the fuel saving feature (eco) recorded and mentioned in window Equipment Listing?
 
Not as eco but as MDS on the engine description i.e. ”Engine: 5.7–Liter V8 HEMI® MDS VVT Engine “.
This is my Equipment Listing
