2002 Dodge Ram 3500 Truck Questions & Answers
Hi john , can u help with my 02 ram 1500 ****** slipping
check the oil and transmission fluid levels also smell and look at the trans fluid if smells burnt and looks brownish you can change filter and fluid and hope no internal damage ---also to much oil and fluid is just as bad as low --- have the codes read most auto stores offer this service for free
No reverse lights diesel manual 5 sp trans
Hi Francis:
I'm assuming you've checked the bulbs and confirmed the grounds and sockets.
I'd check the transmission to see if there is a wire coming from it.
that should be the reverse lights switch. Check with a continuity meter to make sure it is working. Reverse shift position - continuity. Any other position, switch should be open.
Replace if not working.
If it is working you'll need to explore more.
Please reply as a comment to this post if you need more info.
Cheers.
Code 1281
IT MEANS THE ENGINE IS COLD FOR TO LONG SO ITS A TEMPERATURE SENSOR. YOU NEED TO CHANGE THE THERMASTAT IN YOUR CAR. THE GAGE IS WORKING OR YOU WOULD NOT GET A 1287 CODE SO DONT MESS WITH THE GAUGE, JUST GET A NEW THERMASTAT. AND UNHOOK YOUR NEGATIVE CABLE ON THE BATTERY BEFOR YOU REPLACE THIS AND TURN IGNITION TO START POSITION AND DO A TEN SECOND COUT, THEN REPLACE THE THERMASTAT , THEN HOOK YOUR NEGATIVE CABLE BACK UP THIS CLEARS THE CODES IN YOUR CAR SO IT WILL READ NEW CODES AS THINGS GO OUT. ALWAYS CLEAR YOUR CODES BEFOR DOING THE REPAIR AND DONT HOOK UP THE BATTERY UNTIL YOUR DONE WORKING ON IT,
No power to fuel except when turning over
if it is a G.M. product from around 2000 +/- then it is a security feature that shuts of the fuel pump when a electrical spike is registered in the system.....if you leave it for about 20 minutes it will start up and run normaly, if it keeps occuring then you will have to take it in to a dealer to have this feature disabled '04 vette and 2000 suburban both went through this...
02 dodge 5.9 diesel.Vehicle is hard to start when
if its an early 02 then it would be the fuel return valve that you want to change and they're pricey. If its a late 02 then it could be an injector stop ball issue and that's even pricier. so figure out if you have common rail injection or vp44 pump with lines from the pump to the injectors
