I have a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500, just recently had both front wheel bearings replaced. With 10" of fresh snow, I thought would be a great opportunity to use my 4WD, engaged 4HI and nothing! Any ideas?

Asked by babech582 Mar 06, 2013 at 05:13 PM about the Dodge RAM 1500

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I've owned several Dodge 4x4's over the last 30 yrs. Never once have I had a problem with 4x4. I'm
getting a light grind noise in the front left, I suspect that is where the problem lies, Transfer case
engages, front shaft engages, proper indicator light on dash, but nothing but grind at the front left.

Possibly broken drive axle, or hub. That happened to me. On my Ford

I have a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 4.7 Sport. I recently put in a new/used motor because my old one had a bad crankshaft. So after getting new motor in I started the truck and it ran great. I only ran it for about 5 seconds because I noticed I had a broken transmission line. I went back the next day and fixed the line. I went to start the truck back up and nothing happened. No click no nothing, everything lights up on dash. My engine light comes on and blinks about tens times than stays steady. My gear selections are all lit up. Does anyone know the do it yourself solution? 1 Answer

Up until yesterday the oil gauge in my 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 would go to 0 - the check gauges lite would come on and pressure would be restored just as quickly as it had been lost. Yesterday, the truck won't start at all - all gauges seem to be OK except the oil gauge - nothing happens when I turn the key. Could this be the oil pump? 5 Answers
