2003 dodge ram 5.9 cummins ignition / starter wire wont stat. last resort!!!

everything else failed do this.

I have an 04 and I just realize this was my problem. After swapping out batteries and starter, we just decided to bypass and add a push to start, which fixed the problem. Now I know what the problem is 3 years later!! Thank you, sir! I'm still going to keep the push to start since it looks pretty nice! Lol

Thanks I have 2003 5.9 dully with that problem I'm fixing to check the wires

Same truck same year automatic transmission exact same problem wrecking my brain also I appreciate the video My Brother 💪💪💪

[@codybird2879]

Same truck but an auto. I cleaned the blue and it fired up first crank.
I've been dealing with this no crank problem for 3 months doing hot shot all over the US and it's crazy how one little wire has left me stranded for hours

[@gatecity5284]

I know right, mine was so intermittent like to drove me crazy

Great video Matt!

[@gatecity5284]

Thanks

[@jaimevasquez9567]

Did you find out the problem?

[@gatecity5284]

Yes it was a short under the fuse box on that wire leading to the starter wire

@@gatecity5284where does that wire lead to brother if you don’t mind me asking having a similar issue but my wire was just loose/ next to battery terminal

[@tysonha]

It sounds like a TIPM or IPM rebuild depending on the year would fix your problem they are known to get corroded and have electrical problems.

[@ianmorrisseyjr.4771]

Thanks for info I appreciate it

[@thegreataepshow4311]

What is TIPM? Or IPM? Thanks
