Attention: TDR Forum Junkies To the point: Click this link and check out the Front Page News story(ies) where we are tracking the introduction of the 2025 Ram HD trucks.
Over the course of the last few months the 3 light bulbs behind my HVAC controls have all burnt out (2007 3500 Mega Cab). I pulled off the panel and it turns out that they are tiny little bulbs with a plastic base that clips into a printed circuit board. The Dodge dealer in town told me they...
Update:
Alright, I've got it working great now. Everything is hooked up per the instructions. All I had to do was add a wire, fuse, and switch so that the system will work properly without setting codes.
The fused wire runs from the trans pump output on the timer (not normally used on my...

Just got my BD Timer (1081160) and had a couple of questions about the install. Truck is a 2007 5. 9 3500 Mega Cab Dually.
First, I have a Isspro Pyrometer with the probe mounted pre-turbo but I want the probe for the timer post turbo. Where have you guys put this. Is it best to tap the cast...
