You need to have the alarm reflashed, you lost the memory when you removed the battery and only the dealership can do this

roll down driver's window, put key in ignition, close and lock all doors, disconnect negative battery terminal, reach in window and turn and leave key to "on" position, ("on" position, not "start" position), reconnect negative battery terminal with key still in "on" position. This worked for me.

I have a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500. The turn signals work for a short period of time then they freeze. The signals are light on the dash, but aren't blinking. I have the problem when turning right, left, and when the hazard lights are on. I have replaced the fuse. What could the problem be? 3 Answers

Pickup has had the fuses replaced twice in the past two years. I can't seem to locate the problem and don't have the money for someone to look at it. Your advice would be very appreciated.

I have a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 4.7 Sport. I recently put in a new/used motor because my old one had a bad crankshaft. So after getting new motor in I started the truck and it ran great. I only ran it for about 5 seconds because I noticed I had a broken transmission line. I went back the next day and fixed the line. I went to start the truck back up and nothing happened. No click no nothing, everything lights up on dash. My engine light comes on and blinks about tens times than stays steady. My gear selections are all lit up. Does anyone know the do it yourself solution? 1 Answer
