    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Cruise Control Indicator

    My cruise control indicator has stopped working. The light does not come on either during the lamp test when the key is turned on or when the cruise button is actuated. The cruise control itself works fine. I have looked through the service manual and I cannot figure out if this is a...

    Stereo Noise When Brakes Applied

    For the last week or so, every time I apply my brakes, after 1-3 seconds, there is a static crash in the stereo system. Anybody got anything similar? Or, know the solution?

    Air Bags/Ham Radio

    Has anyone had problems with HF Radio deploying air bags? I am in the process of installing a Kenwood TS-570S/G in my 98. 5 and I don't want to find out the hard way!

    TC lockup hunts - need advice

    Overactive Overdrive Revisited Just went through this raindance. Disconnected the battery cables overnight and the problem went away... for a day or two. Took it to the dealer and they flashed it for $30 last Thursday. Pulled the 33' trailer to Glacier Park on Friday with no problems.

    Overactive Overdrive!!!

    Clock Set ... and all those damn radio stations! How do you guys get those little pictures of your outfits to come up on your replys. I looked at my profile and didn't see anything obvious.

    Overactive Overdrive!!!

    Thanks! Thanks to all of you who replied to my post. At first blush, disconnecting the battery cables overnight seems to have cured the problem. I was out zooming around the streets of Great Falls at 630 AM trying it out. I don't understand it, but, I guess whatever works... ! Jerry Lynn

    Overactive Overdrive!!!

    I have a 98. 5 with an automatic trans. It has just under 50K miles on it. The other day after a 425 mile round trip to Lethbridge, Alberta and back, just as we came back into town off the Interstate, the transmission started shifting in and out of overdrive. It acts like it cannot make up its...

    Whats your fuel milage!

    I voted <14mpg because I get around 13 in town. That, unfortunately, is where I do most of my driving. I get 20+ on the highway empty, and 12, pulling my 33ft travel trailer at 65mph. GCVW around 13K.

This route crosses the Continental Divide three times in Montana with the highest pass being Monida, at the...

    Auto Trans Front Band Adjustment

    I had the exact same experience. I did manage to get the job done. I used a T30 on the front band. I'm a 56 year old fat guy, and my glasses get dirty in a hurry under there, so I'm still not for sure that's the right size, but it worked! I also had to add two more quarts of fluid after the...

    Auto Trans Front Band Adjustment

    Does someone know, right off hand, the size of the lock nut and adjusting screw on the front band adjustment on a 98. 5 autotrans. I think the adjusting screw is a Torx 30 but I'm not sure. Thanks. ------------------ Jerry Lynn - '98. 5 Quad, SB, Auto, 4X4, Emerald Green, Wheel Well Trim...

    Current Drain, '98 Ram????????/

    I am having a problem with current drain. I have isolated the problem to the Seat Belt Control Module under the front seat. I have a . 45 amp current with the ignition switch off. When I disconnect the SBCM, it goes away. Problem is, when I disconnect the cable to the left and right seat belt...
