The Vehicle Speed sensor is located on top of the differential housing. it is held in with one bolt and takes about 15 minutes to change. Part #56028 187AC. Always have the dealership check and verify for the latest updated part number. REMOVAL: Raise vehicle on hoist. Remove brake line mounting nut and remove the brake line from the sensor stud. Remove mounting stud from the sensor and shield Rear Speed Sensor Mounting . Remove sensor and shield from differential housing. INSTALLATION: Connect harness to sensor. Be sure seal is securely in place between sensor and wiring connector. Install O-ring on sensor (if removed) Insert sensor in differential housing. Install sensor shield. Install the sensor mounting stud and tighten to 24 N·m (18 ft. lbs.).
Install the brake line on the sensor stud and install the nut.
Lower vehicle. ,I hope this helps you?

it usually means a fuel leak from a fuel line

Are going to move there to aviod fixing an emission issue. Of coarse most all states do

start with 5.5. Slowly add and check. Should be around 6 total

Have the wheels computor balanced, and check the front end, might have a worn ball joint, tie rod end, etc.

The ASD relay provides the power to coil and pump, it needs to see a few things, 1, needs crank sensor signal, 2, needs dist signal, both of these sensors are commen to failure, scan tool can be helpful here to monitor data, also voltmeter is helpful to, just back probe the sense return signals at the PCM connectors. Also these trucks had a harness problem on left side fender area near the PDC relay box that feeds the ASD relay pin 87, ( this should light with a test light, key on,) open circuit in the harnes, has to be cut open to check. you can also jump this relay, pin 87 to 30, 87 being J2 ign feed, 30 going to coil and pump being a 1990 truck remote stater should not be a issue, unless it was just put in, then just unplugg it. GOOD LUCK. RDJRP

Due to the problems you have described, especially the discoloration on the switch terminals, I would look at the voltage regulator. It should be mounted against the firewall under the passenger side wiper area. Take the truck to an autoparts store and have them check the charging system output. Most parts stores will check the charging system output for free. See if the output is high or fluctuating. If it is high it would indicate a problem with the voltage regulator or alternator. I am curious as to what is obviously getting the switch hot enough to eventually do it in. The root of the problem as it were! lol Hope this helped and best wishes.

tires, possably needs to be balanced

First get your wheel balance checked .... Sometimes the balance weights come off !
If that checks out ok and the tires are good then I would be checking the rear wheel bearings.
Let me know how you get on.

This is the best info I got;
firing order is 1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2

Spark plugs should be changed one at a time to prevent mixups.
Spark plug cables should be changed one at a time to prevent mixups.

wires between the starter and battery most of the time you have to pull starter off and they are close to starter

I think that you have to find the relay box for the headlamp and so forth relays.

the clicking noise is the starter solenoid, the heavy electrical contacts that supply 12 volts to the starter are burnt, you will either need to replace the starter slenoid contact set or the solenoid.

You did everything else. You have voltage going to motor,so I would say that was it.

If you told a good dealer parts person what you where trying to do they could get the correct calibration processor for you, you are dealing with a bunch of by the book parts people, can't think outside the box.

no ca/truckr model told at all, of many 3 or 4.no engine told and is and engine problem.the VIN digit #8 is the engine codeNO model told.ram 1500 ?, 2500, 3500 or 4000 , and not the Ram van. 1998 (4000 Mexico or Canada)no engine told one is Diesel;, 3.9 L Magnum V65.2 L Magnum V85.9 L Magnum V85.9 L Cummins turbo-diesel I6<<< ill not cover this ever.8.0 L Magnum V10does the starter motor always work correctly every time, called cranking?we get the fact it does not start. sometimesbut what is not clear, at all, is that the starter always makes this sound called cranking? or fails to do crankingsee MP3 post

step1 in the service manual states check levels first then make sure the shift linkage is good end to end, then scan the pcm for TCM errors. using a real scan tool OBD2 USA and more, lots more, check fuses? to the service manual pump; pressure tests PRNDL pressures each?

If you're experiencing difficulty starting your 2012 Dodge Ram, even after replacing the fuel pump, spark plugs, and fuel relay, there may be several other possible causes. Here are a few things you can check:

1. Check the Battery: A weak battery can cause starting issues, especially in colder temperatures. Check the battery voltage and consider replacing the battery if it's not holding a charge or is more than a few years old.
2. Inspect the Ignition System: The ignition system includes the spark plugs, ignition coils, and spark plug wires. If any of these components are worn, damaged, or corroded, it could cause starting problems. Check these components and replace them as necessary.
3. Check the Fuel System: While you've already replaced the fuel pump and fuel relay, it's possible that there is still an issue with the fuel system. Check the fuel pressure to make sure it's within the manufacturer's specifications. If it's too low, there could be a problem with the fuel filter or fuel injectors.
4. Check the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor: The engine coolant temperature sensor can affect the fuel system and cause starting problems if it's faulty or not reading the engine temperature correctly. Check this sensor and replace it if necessary.
5. Check the Starter Motor: The starter motor could be failing or not engaging properly, which could cause starting problems. Check the starter motor and have it tested if necessary.

If none of these suggestions resolves the issue, it's recommended to take your vehicle to a certified mechanic or dealership for further diagnosis and repair.

Your A/C system have safety switches, IE-limit switches. You could have either low or high pressure kicking out your compressor. You need a set of gauges to tell what your issue is.
