    If you are watching this, file a complaint with the NHTSA. The more complaints the better. I also read there is a class action lawsuit filed for this issue. My truck was fixed under warranty and it has failed again after 1 year and 6k in miles.

      Yeah this is insane Ram’s response to this issue. The service bulletin came out in 2020, and they still haven’t fixed this.
      I will be talking to my lawyer, and most likely looking at an F-350 dually due to total lack of ownership on Ram’s part.

    I followed the process you provided but no luck. However, before I put the connector back on I sprayed WD-40 on HCU pins and female connector, waited a few minutes, shook out any excess WD from wire harness and connected it back. I have driven about 30 miles so far and NO ABS LIGHT! There'll probably be comments on how I shouldn't have sprayed the cintacts and what not, but what is there to lose? It either works or it doesn't! So far it's working. It may be only temporary but BIG THANKS for the video!!

    Thanks for the video, I am glad it has worked for many. Although it did not work for my 2018 3500. Back story. This happened a couple of years ago and I went in search of the Module, RAM customer service wanted a dealership to diag the problem. (When I had that done, Ram came back and said they would not cover it. I was out of warranty.) The dealer said they could get the part in a few days. Turned out it was on national backorder. I went to another dealership and they assisted me in ordering it. It took 3 weeks to arrive. Fast forward 2 years. I decided to finally install the new one. I was told it was programed to my VIN. Get it installed and as one would fear, I had bells and whistles going off everywhere. Mind you, this is a brand new module from Ram. The truck fired multiple codes, Speed sensor, trailer brake controller, air suspension, ABS and the check engine light and a multitude of other items. At this point I went in search of how to reset the truck and came to this video. I decided to put the old one back on praying I didn't just screw up my truck. I installed the old one, made sure everything was clean and started the truck. ABS lights came on, as I was pulling out of the drive, they went off, I drove it for about 20 minutes. Then went into a store, came back out started the truck and it reappeared. Guess this thing will have to go to the dealer at some point. Who knows. Again, I am thankful this video has helped many!

    @ChubbySuperman 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I had the same issue at 49,000 miles. I went through Ram cares like other people on Reddit told me, I also filed a complaint. Ram cares basically said because I do my own oil changes and fuel filters they would only cover 50%, of which was a $2300 quote. So I told them to kick rocks, I will be trying this very soon. I will let everyone know if it works. Thank you very much for this information. Mine is a 2018, 2500. I would get rid of it after dealing with all this horseshit if it wasn’t the last model full-size truck in a manual.

  • @DavidJohnson-ep1wf
    @DavidJohnson-ep1wf ปีที่แล้ว +10

    I just did everything in this video, sprayed both sides of the connector with contact cleaner and so far after 45 minutes of hunting pot holes the codes have not occurred!!!!
    The dealer said it was the module, but as near as I can tell they never look at this connector! The module is on back order for at least 5 months.
    Thank you for this video!!!

    I suspected this exact cause. A bad connection. Mine is intermittent but will usually happen on a highway drive at some point. I refused to pay the $1600 to replace because I knew it probably would eventually happen again. Dealships no longer troubleshoot issues, they just read a code and replace parts. You are on your own to figure things out yourself. Thank you for this video, it is exactly my issue and now I know it can be fixed with a little effort on my part. However, it looks like something additional needs to be done to better protect this connection from getting dirty again.

    Just took my 18’ 3500 Dually in for the exact same issue with 15k miles. No ETA on parts. Dealer told me to pick up truck and advised I not “follow to closely” and that ABS is only needed during hard braking. My lawyer will be drafting a letter tomorrow. $80k yard art. FML 🤦‍♂️

  • @LoganRead-l9n

    The connections inside the female plug is 95% of the time the problem. You can pop off the red plate and the back of plug and push every one of those females out and push down a little on the tab inside that female to ensure a tight connection. Just remember to do one at a time. Unplug battery first and push them out with a pick.

Found the video that showed me how to reattach a spring that comes loose and that fixed the problem. 15 minutes and $0.

    8/21/23 just picked up my truck from dealer for this same issue. They stated all the AB modules were also recalled and sent back. A new module is ordered for my ruck but again on back order till December -November at best. Dealer stated they are working on recall and all modules replaced so far have been covered under warranty even if warranty is expired.. so I too will try this and see how it works…

    Mine started popping up the ABS warning all the sudden. Sometimes it'll go quite a while with no issue, and then itll just go nuts. I suspect either the connector, or possibly a broken solder joint in the module itself. You can get the cover, and connector off without removing the wheel liner, but you don't really have much access to see, or mess with anything. It sucks you can't post pics to the comment section 'cause I'd definitely point out what I find whenever I get the chance to dig into it.

    I had the same problem. Saw TSB from ram to replace HCU and module which I had done. 20k miles later happened again. Found out on CumminsForum the problem is with 17-18 rams. The brushes on the electric motor of the HCU retract and stick. I changed HCU with one from 2015 ram and many miles later still no problem. Others have played with the brushes and also solved the problem. Thought I’d pass it on to save others money and aggravation.

    I just had my 2018 2500 Ram in for service for the 3rd time since purchased in June 2019. Same issue. Once at 5000 miles, another at 21,000 and this last at 33,000. This last time I was told I'd have to pay for the repair and brake bleed to the tune of @$1400. Plus the part was on backorder until Aug of 23. I said I don't think so! I was still 6 months from having two years since the last HDU was installed. I've had two modules and two controllers replaced total during the three visits. This last time the HDU that was replaced with an AB. Now both the module and controller match with AB part numbers. I did have to get Ram involved though because of the failure of the dealer to honor the two year parts guarantee (was 18 months) and as soon as they got on the line with the dealer, stuff started rolling. I just picked the truck up last friday. NO CHARGE! So far, so good. No lights, messages, bells or whistles. Yet I still have no confidence! Love the truck, but the inherent, never ending issues with this system have me shellshocked! My hats off to RamCare though, and this is not a paid advertisement!

      @@bobrainey9907 Here's what I was told at the last caution. The third time. The service advisor told me to Call RamCare (ran by a company called Stellantis I believe) and tell the person that answers the phone that you want to open a case. They will take your information and assign you a rep to work with you to get things fixed. My Rep was excellent. They worked with a difficult service chain of command at the dealer to get the ordered partr on the right priority so they could prioritize the shipping. Changed a 5 month backordered part wait to 5-6 days. But the key is RAmCare...tell the person that answers you want to open a case....and it flowed like butter from there on, for me anyways.
      So far, so good! My fingers are still crossed though....Gun shy! Having it happen 3 times before anybody helps, is ridiculous!!

Filed complaint with NSHTA, AG of MO and MI- waiting on responses. Final is small claims court- you should see their slogans on how the build each and every truck perfectly.

Then after realizing the code would only appear after i braked hard or hit a bump hard while braking. Hopefully it’s the same thing for you. Another thing i did was bleed it and I LUCKILY found someone locally who also works full time at a mechanic shop to re pressure my abs module.

    Im having the same issue with my 2018 power wagon. i seen a post where a person trouble shot it down to the exact pin and pulled the pin out of the connector and pinched it slightly to fix the problem. I been waiting for warmer weather to look into this. Im not sure how he knew which abs sensor line was causing the trouble. I connected an OBDII reader but it will not tell me which wheel is causing the error. Im going to try what you did and see what happens. Thanks for your video.

    • @suny6pak

      I just checked all of my pins and it didn't help. Had this same thing happen back in 2021 and I replaced both HCU and ABS Module as that's what seemed to be the most recommended - firmly believe it's a wiring issue with how intermittent the lights are. Hopefully Ram will eat the cost if I do need to replace both units again (2018 Ram 2500)

      I have the foxwell scanner and i can look at each wheel sensor while im driving to see which one isnt working properly. All four of them are reading properly even when this damn dinging is going on so i know its not a wheel sensor. Tomorrow i will be taking the front left wheel off and the fenderwell out and try this process. On my truck, because of this problem, it has deactivated the four wheel drive and the cruise control. It has also deactivated the traction control and electronic breaking system for my trailer that I pull. I was also quoted a price $1600 by dodge with a 6 month back order for the parts.

      The code I am getting is: abs pump motor control general electrical failure So this code is telling me that its not the abs pump or module. Instead Im thinking its either a fuse or relay but now after seeing this video Im going to try this next. Im going to clean it out with break cleaner and check the pins for corrosion. If I see any corrosion then I will clean it off with an emery board or something similar and see what happens. In the video I didnt see any kind of sealing around the plug to keep moisture and dust/dirt out. I will problably put dielectric grease on all the pins to prevent any more corrosion from occurring.

      The purpose of ABS is so people don't have to learn to stop their vehicle straight and without swapping ends. Especially in wet conditions. It in no way makes you stop quicker. Mine has been out for about 8 months and the only thing that I am upset over is the cruise control is inop and the lights on the dash are aggravating. Towing trailers with surge brakes can be an issue at times because if a truck wheel hits a washboard area of the road it will set off the ABS partially releasing the brakes and at the same time releasing the surge brake making the problem worse.
