1995 Dodge Ram - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

You need to use a LED type test light for the injectors or a Bosch style Noid light for the injector. To test the cam/crank sensor signal you either need a scanner to read them or a lab scope to show you a signal. The pickup plate in the dist handles the injector timing, the crank sensor provides a RPM signal. They both feed the computer information for ignition timing. Good fuel pressure, injector activity(Noid), and good spark out of the coil. The coil is what I replace the most of.

Question edited for clarity and spelling, wrong type of break / brake. Question moved to correct category. The most likely cause would be a disconnected or badly connected connector under the dash from the lighting switch and lighting stalk. It is confusing the Body Control Module which monitors and operates all this stuff on a computer network. You may need an auto electrician and a pro grade scan tool computer to diagnose. https://www.google.com/search?q=1995+Dodge+Ram+1500.+My+brake+light+won%27t+turn+on%2C+and+my+tail+lights+won%27t+turn+off ..

immobilizer , crank and cam position sensors have not being mentioned dodge code 32 refers to faulty EGR and not to ignition problems also if the ignition switch is faulty there will be no run circuit to provide power for the ignition in the run position

Any time a seller says, "IT just needs this....." you should be suspicious. Get it checked out by a professional mechanic. Read this posthttp://ricksfreeautorepairadvice.com/how-to-buy-a-used-car-part-iii/

not really people who interfere with auto electrics are a gold mine for auto electricians best suggestion is to find the bad add-on that was installed and remove it get the harness and electronics back to as near to original as possible so that problems are easier to fix

Stuck EGR?

Will it crank in neutral ?

Not sure what you are asking but it is not hard to replace the power steering pump just reinstall the same way you took it off. Just make sure to get all the air out of the system, to do that jack up the front to get the front wheels of the ground then with reservoir filled to correct height just turn the steering wheel from lock to lock what I mean by that is all the way to the right then all the way to the left. Have some one to look in the reservoir as you do this and watch for bubbles. When no more bubbles are present you have purged the system of air. Good luck.

I guess the short answer is no. It depends on the engine and trans, but the starter for a 1995 model 5.2 is different from a 2002 model with a 4.7 engine.

can you keep in running by power-braking it? no mass vacuum leak?

Engine won't start, or won't crank ?

Did you do any turn up lately. Was it rain or just cold outside. If yes you might need to check/replace spark plugs/wires, distributor cap. Simple solution for cheking that just worm up with hair dryer for 5-10 minutes.If helps look the problem where.
If wont help check the fuel pump, fuel filter.
Hope that helps.

If you just replaced the battery or it went dead, it will need to relearn idle. If you push on and hold the accelerator down does it stay running?

What type or car or truck ,year Gas or Diesel .

well not sure what style shifting it has. if its the floor shifter to select. you need to have the truck in neutral first before changing the 4wd. same thing with push button shifting on the newer trucks. it just works easier for the parts to move not being in gear. if it wont work with the shifter then you might have something that is broke or jammed.

bbbind.com I saw a fuse box layout for your vehicle.

The entire frame and chassis of the vehicle is grounded via a heavy gauge cable from the (-) post of the battery. Various jumpers are used to ensure the (-) 12 volt side of the battery is present on body panels, framework, etc. throughout the vehicle. The *best* place to connect electrically operated devices (audio especially) in the vehicle is AT the (+) & (-) battery posts - or as CLOSE to those points as practical. Doing so, will reduce the chances of objectionable "noise" being introduced to the radio on the power leads. This is especially true when trying to connect the ground or (-) lead(s) for equipment. "Dirty" power can actually be heard through speakers as static, hiss, popping, whine, etc. The battery is the cleanest source of power in the vehicle and should be used whenever clean power is essential.
