Great video, I have my own shop been turn wrenches for 40 years, work on everything from cars, trucks, equipment, gas, diesel, very helpful when you find somebody that is specialised in one manufacture. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

As things get harder and harder.....I find its best to stick to one car line. Being great at all is almost impossible. I have enough trouble keeping up with our newer stuff and the changes that we make lol. I do appreciate you watching the video and for taking the time to comment. Make sure to subscribe Brian if you havent already.

[@StingFlight]

Don't you just love finding people who: 1. know what they're doing; 2. love what they're doing; and 3. are going places?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks man! Wish I was "going places"......maybe one day.

[@darkirondiesel]

Awesome videos buddy thanks a lot!

[@christopherporath1447]

Thanks man great videos helped a lot very helpful keep it up

[@johnbaker8414]

I have been doing this work for close to 50 years and I know I need to change my evaporator but I would just like to bring YOU my truck.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

If your welling to travel to Georgia then I would be more then welling to work on it.

[@dougwitherby3291]

Great videos Brother !!

[@eddieboyle8501]

Top notch video I did the job in a little over 3 hours

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Glad it went well......job well done. Thanks for commenting and for using this video. Dont forget to subscribe.

[@Amaranthian450]

I wish you could do one of these removal vids on the intake manifold on a ram ecodiesel

[@stephenkissel2097]

I needed this video in May for my 2007. Oh well. I've sold it and now have a 2012.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Stephen Kissel Hey there Stephen. The video would not have been the same for the 2007. Not a lot different but different none the less. It will work for your 2012 however if need be.

[@Charlespxxxx]

Thanks for that video! I got one question tho: if you have arm rest center console, do you need to remove it or you work around it??

[@xc_4x4]

Love watching your videos bud yiur instructions and visuals are awesome! Can you do one for the exhaust manifold and headliner? For a 4th gen RAM truck ofcourse

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks Roy. I will keep it in mind. I dont get any headliner repairs so making a video might be hard. But if I ever do I certainly will try. Appreciate you watching the videos and for the request

[@harryodum5598]

I have a 2010 dodge ram 1500 if you don’t want air conditioning problems don’t run outside air if you’re in a dusty area. I never run my air conditioning with outside air unless I’m on the highway and it’s not really hotAnd if you do this you will never have a plugged up condenser.

[@tonywestvirginia]

Come on Bud, It's a "Parking Brake" !!!

[@brockcarrr66]

So the replacement went good so far but my brake light switch didn’t make it I have a new one is there any thing other then just plugging in the new one ?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Its a gamble each time....most times they survive and others they dont. You should only have to install and rotate it to lock it in place. Thanks for watching and make sure to subscribe.

[@rthibx]

I assume 2016 is same? Wasn't sure because it wasn't in title of video series.

[@TacomaForce]

What will be different if you have a center consul?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Afternoon Jake. The only difference is the removal of the center console. I don't have a video on that as of yet. It's nothing hard.....remove the front rubber tray liner and there are some screws there. The large chrome ring around the shifter need me to be carefully lifted up and off. Then you can remove the upper portion of the front of the console where the shifter is. Then it's just a matter of removing the related bolts and screws. I believe the shifter needs to come out as well....been awhile since I had to remove a center console so please excuse if my memory is a bit fuzzy

[@MsDuper]

How much oil did you put in your system after replacing the evaporator core ? And how much?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

jaime bojorquez Typically on just the evaporator no more then 1 ounce. Thanks for watching and for the question. Make sure to subscribe

[@HKvsGlock]

So I got a 2014 2500 6.4 and have lukewarm heat but both hoses are hot. I see the little white tab on the door move when I switch from cool to heat and the truck gets up to temp. What should I check for next?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

In a case like this I recommend performing the HVAC calibration test using a scanner that is able to so that it can be tested to see if there is an issue. Thats where I would start to rule anything out there.

[@HKvsGlock]

Would the calibration have to be completed by the dealer or can I do it myself without a scanner? I have flushed the system (including the core itself) and now sometimes get really hot air and other times it's just barely good enough. I'm up in Wyoming and need to fix this before it starts to get below freezing. Many thanks man!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

You need to have the scanner thats able to perform that.....a dealer or independent repair shop should be able to.

[@reidelfernandez9779]

I have a dodge charger hemi 2012. How can I change the water pump ?

[@janetthaut5454]

What would something like this cost? To replace the evaporator? I have a 2011 Dodge Ram 1500 that I just put a new engine in and the A/C hasn't worked since. Help....

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Labor is around $700 plus about $300 in parts......so $1000 would be a good rough estimate. Hope that helps. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe.

[@janetthaut5454]

@@MotorCityMechanic Sad face. Thanks

[@MotorCityMechanic]

@@janetthaut5454 Sorry to give you that news. But if you do it yourself you will mainly only be paying for the parts and having some evac and recharge the system. Its really not as bad as it looks.

[@honkn33man]

I just did my truck everything is fine but now the traction light stays on someone please help me

[@MotorCityMechanic]

The one thing thats common that can cause issues such as this when the dash is pulled back is the brake pedal switch. Sometimes you can reuse it....sometimes you cant. I would first start with checking the codes to see what caused the light to come on.....I still have a good feeling the pedal switch is the cause just based on experience. Thanks for watching and for the question. Make sure to subscribe

[@davidkahlden761]

Will this work for a 2009

[@MotorCityMechanic]

+david Kahlden It should be the same being that the body style is the same. I am not sure why I didn't list 2009 in the description. Otherwise I would think yes.

[@dennysumana2617]

How much it cost to replace the dash to change the air housing unit now in Texas ?

[@eddieboyle8501]

75 moparpower

[@MotorCityMechanic]

at least! lol
