Anyone notice what sounds like wires sparking when starting their trucks up in the morning? I feel like the spark sound happens after the truck has been parked in the garage overnight and I first put my foot on the break to push the start button.

Sparking sound during some startups?

There are several sounds you may hear when starting. There may be a clunk, almost like a grinding noise, that shouldn't be there but unfortunately it is; or you may hear some electronic noises about a second or 2 after starting. These are normal and are all the actuators that are involved in turning everything on.
Those are the closest thing to a sparking noise that I have experienced.

Next time you start the truck, take your foot off the brake when it begins to turn over. This may stop the noise you are hearing

Clang on Start up!?
Hi guys, I have a 2020 rebel with the 5.7 Hemi. Every once in a while I will hear a "Clang" when it first turns over on start up. I can't seem to get the dealer's service department to even get me a diagnosis without dropping off my truck for 2-3 days!!! That being said, I was curious if any...
