The CEL can be turned off with a scanner, as long as TST already has the answer and there are other problems.

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.

My 2005 Dodge Ram 4.7 is having trouble starting, it usually takes 3 attemps until it turns over. I suspected that it may be the check valve on the sending unit but I can find the part in online autopart stores which leads me to believe that it doesn't have one. Could it possibly be the fuel pump? 1 Answer
