2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7l Crank no Starter (fix)

[@johnvice7715]

After spending a few hundreds on stater battery relays ect i took a $10 set of jumper cables i ran them from the neg battery terminal to the actual alternator housing an it would stater an ran i ran a wire from both its been good a year now

[@Ocean_breezes]

Im surprised the PCM wasn't damaged since those wires were shorted out. But good trouble shooting

[@2EZEverything]

Thank you!

[@dillonbelcher1521]

Sams issue crank no start for mine. Will check wires and update with the results.

[@2EZEverything]

Did you have any success with your vehicle?

[@jaycee3370]

I’m having similar problems but my 30amp fuse blows as soon as I turn on the ignition switch. It’s the ASD fuse

[@blackwolf1780]

Where the dash lights off when you had this problem?? Mine the dash lights are off but my headlights and ac/heater is blowing but no radio or dashlights

[@2EZEverything]

No the check engine light was on. That doesn’t sound like symptoms of a cam or crack sensor issues.

Great video guy

Thanks for keeping me digging in to it , I had to dismantle the fuse box ,circuit board had a burn mark on it ,so I ground it down with dermal tool, bingo fired right up P.S. 4 days later

[@johnduncan771]

And resoldered the bad spot

[@2EZEverything]

Nice I’m to glad this was helpful and that you were able to figure out your issue!

those trucks aint nothing but a head ace best to get rid of it.

[@Ocean_breezes]

For sure. My son bought one used and the next day it's sitting in my driveway with exactly the same issue. It cranks, but no activity to fuel pump relay or ASD relay. IOW, DOA. These vehicles are POS. I have owned Toyota Tundras for over 24 years and never had issues like that. My 2nd Tundra is a 2006, 225000 miles, runs perfect today. I'm retired and will pass it to my son when I expire. Lol

The fuse box go bad to if you go to a junkyard find one without corrosion my other ram it was a bad fuse box
