I have a 98 Dodge ram that has no power to fuse box for park lights and dash lights. Radio quit working at the same time as the lights quit

Hi, A couple of things could cause the issue. There might be bad wires to the lights and radio. And if most things aren't receiving power, you might have either a bad battery or alternator (recharges the battery). If possible, please get a diagnostic scan run at your local autozone. You can call ahead first to see if they are able to use the diagnostic tool on your car model/year. This is the autozone number: 1 (800) 288-6966 . Thank you.

Why is there an extremely loud hissing sound when I drive it?

Exhaust leak. Clogged catalytic converter would cause your car to lose power

I think ineed to replace the fuel pump on my 98 dodge ram

Turn the key position to run and listen for the pump. Sometimes it’s best to take off the gas cap to listen but you can usually hear it. If nothing then check the fuse and make sure it’s ok. If it’s fine then you are likely right but you should check for power at the pump with a voltmeter to make sure. What makes you think you need to replace it.

98 Dodge Ram 1500 Cant go over 25 mph or rev past 2000 rpm I changed 3 sensors and it still does it with no codes being thrown Completely stumped on what causing it or what to try to do next Any idea?

Check for any fuel leaks. Keep it parked while someone presses the gas pedal. look around for any fuel leaks. A loss of fuel pressure will give you those symptoms. Check the fuel pump too. Good luck!

ground wires are normally black get a multimeter and set it on ohms resistance put one end on the wire and the other to metal ground if it is a ground wire the gauge reading will be all zeros as that indicates a circuit

I just replace the power steering pump and gear box on 98 ram 1500 gas engine. When I apply brakes to turn corner, I lose power steering. Help please!

Unless you have a power steering assisted brake booster more common with a diesel, you may have a new pump issue like the flow control valve in the pump or air in the system yet, check for air bubbles or a milky looking fluid and the correct fluid. Try in a parking lot out of the way of traffic to put in neutral while moving,rev the motor slightly and brake as you would when the PS assist stops,by revving the motor just off idle this will increase the PS pressure it should act normal if it's a flow control issue and if the pump is capable of producing the correct pressure.

1998 dodge ram 1500 po132 engine light wont go off after replacing h2o sensors

the h2o sensor may not be the only problem, some thing else is setting off the sensor, a pin hole in the hose, a loose connection, cracked lines, plug lines, blockage of sensor that controls the h2o unit, look at the whole picture, housing, gasket is that area, too much h2o, not enough h2o, gases mixtures + h20's, make sure you have the air pressures sucking and pushing through the line. you are going to have to a service manual and general information how the h20 system works in that vehicle. test points. www.ask.com/year/mfg.name/make/model/how/does/H20/system/works/on/vehicle/
