I had a bad module. I had no headlights no blinkers brake lights or wipers. I changed the module now everything works except for my headlights. Any ideas?
I just took my 04 3500 ram diesel , one headlight works on high the other on low beam, only the right rear turn signal works, they dignosed everything and said I'm SCREWED, Dodge discontued what I need the "tipum" and something else… and no aftermarkets … says he might be able to send mine out and have them rebuilt. take about a month and $2K. can't I just wire this thing with some manual switches and bypass the factory light switches. ? also my rear 7 point trailer plug in the back works,,,,,,
test lights are not always a good indication of a fault power feed wire. I have seen power feeds light up a test light but if that test light were able to put more of a load on power feed then it could show if it fails under a load. Did you happen to take apart the FCM? I am debating on taking mine apart and seeing if I can find a broken solder joint.
What about if my low beams are fine and my high beams are low and delay coming on when they do my lamp out light comes on we have changed the bulbs and put whole new lens
I removed the fuse box to access the fcm and with the lights in the on position I loosened the screws and started pulling on the fcm and the light turned on so then I put a couple more washers behind each screw and put it back together. Both lights are working and no longer have the "lamp out" message. I'll come back and edit if I have any issues.
Any assistance would be nice on this. I have an 04 ram 1500 hemi and one day all of a sudden my front right low beam went out. It's one whole bulb system and I replaced the bulb but it didn't work. Then I fiddled around with a couple fuses for the FCM relay and all of a sudden it came back. But after driving a little while it basically shorted itself out again. Both the old and new bulbs are fine.
My number 9 slot on fuse box doesn't seem to have the metal Inside it. Cant get any connection with the tester. Tried a different fcm. And still nothing. Only thing it can be is the fuse box. I replaced the headlight switch already too
Nice video. I got the exact same problem. Did all the steps you did everything came out just like yours. But the final step you did on given power to the head lights i notice your head lights turned on but the bulb on your test light did not. Mine was the opposite. Head lights did not turn on but bulb on my test light turned on. Just wondering if you know why it did that?
Great vid… have a question….I have an 05 2500…my marker lights ..roof lights dont come on…everything else does…did a jumper from pin 15 on Fcm to 73 fuse which is parking lamp fuse…and worked for years …and now it crapped out…check and found jumper wire corroded..replaced it have power going to 73 fuse and it didnt work…fuse circuit board issue?..
FYI. I found on a thread that unplugging the fcm for 10 min can reset the tripped relay. Did all your tests and plugged it back in to jump wires and the lights can’t back on. With a new bulb. Power was not there before!!!!

Gracias was very help me your video
Cuídate vendiciones
Having the same problem with my 04, but the high beam works, low beam doesnt, could this still be the issue?
you the man bro
was cheaper to replace or you think better just to send it out to the companies that fix circuit boards? Like pcu's or ecm's
Excellent post. My lights are acting up. Thanks to your post I can go check some things that might be casing problems.
Helped trace the problem perfectly. Wish there wasn't any background music. Thank you
Was the problem low beam only? Or high beams also? Both my lows out now. But highs work

Mine lights up in pin 8 and 9
My trailer lights are not working properly do you think changing the fcm will fix my problem?

Any luck fixing your fcm?
Very helpful and thorough video and help me understand the procedure to get it fixed thanks
Lost my reverse lights on my 2003. Any advice on a fix or a way I can power them right from my fuse box?
