Replacing a Fuel pump on a 2016 Ram 1500 short bed

I know I didnt show as much as I wanted but I hope this helps. it's a lot easier to replace the fuel pump on a long bed ram truck.

Excellent video thank you! Started this project and saw the fuel pump father under the cab. Glad you videos the process for all of us!

Bro your laid backness is unreal. I would of lost it after going through all this.

[@rogerprice3331]

Very good video. Very helpful.

If you have to do this job on your crew cab,listen up,DO NOT waste time lifting the bed,dropping the tank is easy,try to keep it to a quarter tank or less,if you don't fart around you can do it start to finish in 2-2.5 hours,I did it last Sunday and it was easy.

[@psicorp]

thanks for this, I was in same spot, thought I could lift bed and get access to fuel pump but it was under cab like this. So I just pulled bed and did like you suggested and dropped the tank just enough to grant access to fuel pump.

[@jonathonpolston8506]

Thanks for this, I had several people telling me to pull the bed. I'll just drop the tank. Luckily it's less than half full.

Excellent video bro I just ran into the same problem last night now I know what to do . Greatly appreciate you

[@deepseawrath]

Careful. If you decide not to pull the bed and drop the tank. You still first have to pull the wires on top or they’ll snap the ESIMD when the tank drops down because they’re short.

Check engine light will come on when your fuel level sensor stops working correctly. I have a 2015 1500 that had the same issue. After your truck runs a self check it should go away after replacement. Good video though.

[@andrewskinner7657]

Gary. I’m replacing a fuel pump on the same year and model. Do I really have to take off the bed and bumper?

[@garydavis6724]

I didn’t go that route. I lifted the truck a little bit in the back. And dropped the tank. It took me about 2 hours. Highly recommend a somewhat empty gas tank. If you have a floor jack a piece of wood to hold the tank level and 2 ratchet straps you should be good. It’s not hard at all.

Hi. I may need to do this on a 2015 as well. So reading your comments, dropping the tank was not a problem? Any hints?

[@garydavis6724]

@@richleskovec4075 @boostedmotorsports made a great video on how to take it out. I didn’t remove the tire or wheel liner like he did. I just reached up and disconnected the lines.

[@nunyabizness2396]

Removing the bed to access the fuel pump only works on a quad cab.

[@jamesgraham2616]

Thanks for the video i know now i should just pay a qualified mechanic to fix mine if i ever have a problem

[@lifeofgabylon]

This just happened to me hahaha. I guess trying to be savvy don’t always work. I totally forgot my truck was crew cab and I did it like this in my other quadcab. Fml time to drop the tank in the morning with my bed half off. On the bright side the fuel lines will disconnect easier this way.

[@bradybriggs7654]

I have this issue on my 2014 quad cab. Will I be able to get to the fuel pump if I take the bed off? Or is the fuel pump under the cab on the quad cab too? Thanks

[@davymiller3298]

Hey just a comment on the check engine light, my truck is doing the same thing with a faulty fuel sensor and that will through the check engine light. My truck has a code for a senor failure in the fuel tank

[@KhristianSmith]

On my 2012, it took me 4.5 hours from underneath, alone. Some parts, it would be nice to have a second person. If dropping, there is one electric plug in the rear, two hoses toward the fill spout along with one electrical, the electric and gas line on the pump and one vapor /gas line on the front of the tank. I think I could do the job in 2 hours if I had to do it again.

[@jerryk7926]

Nice job. Que

[@SksToTheMini14]

I regret not buying a toyota tundra now that i have this same issue on my 2016 ram. Nice truck and all but this is ridiculous for some cheap failed sensor.

[@bradybriggs7654]

Will you be able to reach the pump by taking off the bed on a quad cab? Or is it under the cab on the quad cabs as well? Thanks

[@michaelvogler9540]

check for a ground or hot to the check engine light

[@spikeyy310]

Where did you find the fuel line clips ? I can’t find them at autozone

[@ryaj2356]

Dealership only item right there lol. Very annoying.

[@stanleyadamitisiii4675]

Where is the link to buy the sensor?

[@HotOneRecordz]

Why did u remove the bed? That is the hardest route ever.

[@michaelschmock6739]

I thought this was a satire. Seems like so much more work then dropping tank

[@HotOneRecordz]

@@michaelschmock6739 😂😂😂💯

[@ryaj2356]

Just drop the tank. Drive it down to under 30 miles on the tank and drop it.
