First off Hi to all
This is my first Ram truck and I hope it turns out to be a good truck.
Its a 2020 Ram 1500 Bighorn with the 5.7 e-torque.
Today when I stared the truck I noticed the ETC light came on for a sec and then turned off.
It happens every time I start the truck. I'm not sure if this is one of those lights that just cycles when you start the truck or if there is actually something wrong.
So basically is it normal for the ETC light to come on every time you start the truck???
 
I have a 2021 (Big Horn Eco Diesel - only 7,200 miles) and yesterday on freeway rolling at 75 the truck basically shut down - could not throttle at all. I was able to pull over to shoulder thankfully and the truck died. I tried to start it and it would not. I sat for a minute trying to not lose my mind and said a prayer to hit ignition and it started and ran fine with know issue to where I was going and to home again. The check engine light cleared as well.. It will be heading to the dealership for them to check it out....
