Chrysler / dodge has always had poor electrical systems and apparently never got it right. I have a 2018 ram 2500 that has this same issue and the high beam lever went out as well!

@MKSPerformanceOffroad3 ай бұрын
Once you get the motor out of the casing you will see a brass raceway or guide on both sides with brushes that ride in them. On either side of the guides are a plastic ripple that is mushroomed over to secure the metal guide to the motor back plate. You will drill these out and replace with small screws and a nut. Ensure you put some loctite on the nut and the screw inserted from the outside to the inside. Hope this helps. I will post a more in depth video shortly if needed. Fix is holding up well though.

@brianscott1364Ай бұрын
When I did this both of my brushes were stuck in the guides, I didn't remove the guides from the motor but instead used the tiny diamond bit in my Dremel kit to grind off the little bridge on the brush guide then spread the brush guide with a flat screwdriver to free up the brushes. I'm going to consider this a permanent repair, the only time that motor operates is when the ABS system is actually operating during a emergency braking incident or slick road situation.
