    07.5-12 Harmonic Damper question?

    It looks like we have a fluid damper on these years. I have a 2012. Do these go bad over time? Couldn't find anything on the search.

    Revmax Valve body and Alphaobd?

    I'm looking to get a Revmax VB for my 2012 3500 dually with 111k miles. I drive easy and tow at times a 15k 5th wheel. I see in the Alphaobd that I can do a transmission relearn. Has anyone done the relearn with the Alphaobd? I also have the MM3 programmer, I should be able to read the line...

    I just ordered a replacement key fob from the dealer. I will have it in a few days. I have the Alpha OBD app. I also read on here that I need a 4 digit pin from the dealer to enter into the Alpha app. When reading the Alpha info on what to do, it seems a little scary. Has anyone done this...

    2012 3500 seat cushion replacement before and after photo's

    I wanted to share what the Geno's Garage drivers seat cushion looked like before install and after. The new cushion is so much firmer than the old factory cushion. But I'm sure when the truck was new it had the same firmness. The job was a first for me. I've changed out seats before but never...

    Fan clutch / MAP sensor questions

    Have 2012 3500 Longhorn about 97,000 miles and deleted. I'm using MM3 tuner. My fan clutch is pretty much matching my rpm's while driving around town. Fan clutch was replaced about 2 years ago. My thought process and troubleshooting is telling me that the PCM is seeing a high temp somewhere...

    Windshield wiper delay mode not working.

    Hi all, it's been awhile since my last post, but now I have an issue. On my 2012 3500 dually, I noticed that my wiper delay stopped working. I can set it on any delay setting and it will not do anything. Sits there like it's in the off position. The wipers will move as I select a different...

    Geno's Fan Clutch Tools for '98-'12 Cummins.

    I just replaced my fan clutch on my 2012 3500 Ram Turbo diesel. There seems to confusion on how to take off the fan cutch as to which way to unscrew the unit and lack of instructions on how to use the Geno's fan clutch tool set. First off on my 2012 the fan clutch loosens like any other nut or...

    2012 68rfe trans cooler hose

    I think I might be having an issue with my Thermal Bypass Valve. I was riding in the truck on I-4 in Florida keeping up with the flow of traffic doing 80mph. Outside temp showed 91*F, I have the 4:10 tow package and we weren't towing or carrying anything and the trans temp was reading 190-192F...

    Ambient Temperature sensor

    The Ambient Temperature sensor that's in the grill seems to be giving strange readings at times. I can see 66* then it might go 100*. My question is, does this sensor have any effect on the operation of the A/C or any other function of the truck in any way? 2012 Ram 3500 Longhorn

    Tires again. Michelin LTX M/S2 vs Nitto Dura Grappler

    I currently have the Firestone TransForce HT tires. They have 40,000 miles. The fronts have some tread issues where every 3rd tread is lower than the rest. I had new at the time the Bilstein 5100 shocks installed and alignment. That was at 25,000 miles. The truck currently has 65,000 miles and...

    AC quick cycles mainly when using remote start.

    This has been an on going issue since the truck was new. A 2012 3500 DRW Longhorn with 60k miles. After using my truck for a while shopping, I would use the remote start only to find the AC is blowing warm air. I can hear the compressor doing a quick cycle on/off. I've searched this forum and...

    Towing my 5th wheel, brake questions???

    When I apply the truck brakes when stopping, there is at least a 1-2 second delay before I can feel the 5th wheel brakes being applied. Also there is the same delay when lifting off the brake pedal, the truck will move but the 5th wheel brakes are still holding for 1-2 seconds. I would...

    I don't have the whole part number of the tie rod, but I know the original part number ended in AA. They replaced it with a AB. Now a friend says they issued a second recall and his part ends with a AC and his truck is the same as mine. He went in for the original recall last month and they...

    I'm on an RV forum and we are have a discussion on whether the max tow can be 3.73 and or 4.10's for the DRW. This question only applies to the 2012 year only. A couple of the members have in their sig's max tow 3.73. Mine is max tow 4.10's. I thought that you could only get 4.10's with the...
