    Chime coming from center dash or passengers side dash.

    2005 2500 quad cab... Recently a new chime has started to sound (only once, about 1 sec. in duration) as the truck accelerates, just after the doors auto lock. Two weeks ago, grandson was playing (supervised) in the driver's seat, turning knobs, pushing buttons, pulling levers. Now the left...

    Afraid to drive...Trans shift cable bushings

    2005 2500 4 dr, 4x4, auto. Wanted to shift from R to D yesterday, but the trans ended up stopping in N, and the truck wouldn't move, and the shifter handle got real "soft" to shift. Found the shift cable end at the trans had disconnected from the pin on the bracket that goes into the trans...

    Fuel drainback or what?

    2000, 2500, 4x4, 5spd, stock truck, 314,200 miles. Made a short mileage run to the trash station earlier today and had this happen. Started truck to warm up a bit before leaving. Drove 5-6 miles to trash station. Weighed in, and then parked truck and shut it off as the line was long ahead of...

    The 2000 2500 has a left front turn-park bulb not working, however the bulb is good, and even changing it does nothing. Have diagnosed the following: hazard flashers all work, flash normal; left turn flashes fast both with and without bulb in front socket; park lamp doesn't light; with lights...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Fuel Pump Question

    Is it possible for a fuel lift pump (year 2000) to run as it should and not pump anything? Just returned from a short trip, now the truck won't start. Put 7 gallons of fuel in it just in case it was out, bled as Service manual says, and still got nothing. Thought it was a good time to change...

    Looking at new to me 2005 2500. Quick replies please.

    I am quickly looking at a 2005 2500, 4x4, auto, shortbed, 4 door(quad cab?) with 65,000 1 owner miles in almost pristine condition. Clean Carfax, clean truck, still has original tires. Price has not been stated yet, as the dealer is not finished detailing it yet. My question is, in a nut shell...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Removing the mirror glass

    Has anyone had luck with removing and installing a new glass in the outside mirror housing on a 2000 style non tow mirror? Since Geno's sells replacement glass, how hard is it to replace? What holds the glass in place? OR should I just install a complete mirror assembly which I have had in...

    Archived truck starts, but dies when put in gear

    For a fellow farmer and Cummins owner. 1999 2500, 4x4, automatic, quad cab. She returned home from the first cow show of the year and shut the truck off to unload the cows at the farm. Went to move it and the truck died after she put it in gear. Tried again, same thing. Did not matter if it was...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Temperature gauge reading less than it has

    Over the past 6 weeks or so I have noticed that my temp gauge is not reading as hot as it normally does, nor does it rise and fall with the opening and closing of the t-stat. It still throws the heat out of the heater and defroster vents. Antifreeze level is full, water pump not leaking, belt is...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) How many fuel screens/filters are there?

    I am trying to determine why I have had a loss of power over the past few months. This started before changing to winterized fuel. So, the obvious is fuel filter, which got me to thinking... how many other filters, screens need to be serviced? I can only think of two: Fuel screen on the fuel...

    Grid Heaters not cycling after starting

    This is the second time I noticed that after I started the 94 the grid heaters would not cycle like they normally do. The temperature was 27, and the truck had not run for 12+ hours. I cycled the key twice, as I thought the 'wait to start' message went out quicker than normal. After the second...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission time for new tires

    Does anyone have experience with firestone destination a/t or transforce a/t tires? Looking at them for my dually. Had to buy a used firestone as a replacement, and liked the way it wore as compared to my other tires.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Is it the starter??

    My wife's 2000 has been starting slow the past few times. It acts like there is just enough juice in the batteries to turn the engine over, and then it jumps to life. I had the batteries checked, and load tested, and they check out good as new (2 years old). Charging system checked out good as...

    My wife took her truck in for inspection yesterday, and they came back with a list of things for me to do! Most important item was a broken left side spring eye. Got the bad news, thinking no sweat, I 've got a parts truck at the house; simply job. Not quite so, according to the factory service...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Parking brake cable issues!

    Recently had to replace the passenger side parking brake cable on my 94. Now I cannot get the slack out of the cable. I checked the old cable against TWO new cables I bought, and all are within a half inch of each other in length. (Two different parts stores, two different brands, same part...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) water pump cost

    How can Geno's sell a water pump for $35, and one from my repair shop cost $300 ( from the cummins distributor)? Where is the $265 difference in manufacturing? Just venting... thanks!:confused:

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Parts Supplier ???

    Looking to purchase the front hub bearing(s) for the wife's 2000. Quad 4x4 is mentioned quite often, and Rock Auto follows along. Any preference, or why one over the other? Thanks!

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission What fits?

    Will the steering box from an early 98 2500 gasser fit a 94 3500 diesel? Both trucks are 4x4's, and the 98 took a hit to the right front corner. Does not look like any damage was transfered to the left side. The 98 has 49,000 showing on the odometer. I never thought about this until I was back...
