    LED map/dome lights excessive flickering.

    I don't know proper term for the courtesy light, is it mood light or night light, anyways, it is a single low intensity "night light" that is active at the same time as is the door pocket and release handle lights on Laramie trim. It can be turned off from the thumb wheel to get the day time...

    2016 Navigation feature missing?

    The voice control is probably brilliant in silent office lab where FCA engineers created this but hauling down the highway with wind etc background noise, it's utterly useless. If that wasn't enough, that POS doesn't recognize my horrible accent, talk about language barrier and discrimination...

    LED map/dome lights excessive flickering.

    Resurrecting old thread as I had same map light flickering issue on passenger side. While my 2013 2500 was still under warranty, dealer replaced the light housing once and I thought the flickering was fixed. Well the flickering returned about month ago so I went to see dealer parts guy and...

    Most 2013 and some 2014 NO fuel heater engaged

    If you don't have power on that pin, it's either not activated OR the heating element is malfunctioning. Mine was off, my dealer tried to activate it but nothing happened so they took off the filter assemby and measured resistance across the heater and did same test for brand new replacement...

    Some of the DEF nozzles haves magnet operated flap and some other vehicles have the magnet intalled around the DEF filler neck to prevent the mix-up with diesel tank.

    2013 engine sputtering and cutting out at 6,000 - 12,000 ft (crossing Rockies)

    Yes Utah and Kansas dealers have both checked the codes and there wasn't anything saved and without full gelling that had triggered engine light, the dealers scrathing their heads like I was just visiting them for fun... If by some reason it would have been caused by any sensor and solved by...

    2013 engine sputtering and cutting out at 6,000 - 12,000 ft (crossing Rockies)

    I did read the "no fuel heater engaged" and actually posted there too. Repair order print on my hand shows "power on at the vehicle harness/connector" so either they made it up or really measured it. Resistance through the heater was out of the range so conclusion was it being dead and to be...

    2013 engine sputtering and cutting out at 6,000 - 12,000 ft (crossing Rockies)

    Yes I agree but this Christmas - New Year trip was good test environment as on our way to SLC the frame mounted filter heating was off (dead/malfunction) and it was replaced by dealer in SLC and on our return trip back to KC the frame mounted heating was supposed to be working and I still had...

    2013 engine sputtering and cutting out at 6,000 - 12,000 ft (crossing Rockies)

    No matter I have lived 7 years here in States and spent most of my years in Nordic Countries (Finland, Sweden) and then some years around the world. All this time I owned diesels, few American diesel pick-ups and mostly European TDI's and never had gelling issues as living above Anchorage, for...

    2013 engine sputtering and cutting out at 6,000 - 12,000 ft (crossing Rockies)

    Trucker friend suggested same (gelling/starvation) as it still kept going. While coming down from SLC (at highway 6) it did it on one hill and I happened to pull over right after, left at high idle for about 10 mins while checking trailer and straps and whatever I was doing inside the cab. Hit...

    Most 2013 and some 2014 NO fuel heater engaged

    Bump.... During our recent 1200 mile haul from KC to SLC we crossed Rockies on I70 and at the upper elevations the temps were -5F and engine started cutting out / sputtering. I thought it was caused by typical crappy backwoods Kansas fuel no matter I fill up at Love's truck stops...
