Hello Ram owners. I have a 2014 1500 5.7 and I’m having all kinds of electrical issues out of the blue. The abs system lights are on with the traction control also the parking sense is not activating and the fuel pump gauge just stopped working. Anyone know WTH is going on. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

+1 on the battery. It’s very typical that everything is fine and the truck starts right up one day and the next everything goes haywire. If you take it to an automotive parts retailer for battery and charging system testing be aware that the equipment they use to test frequently gives false results. The old style battery load testers that you can get at Harbor Freight for $20 are far more accurate than the fancy electronic equipment most retailers use for testing. If you have a multimeter unhook both the positive and negative terminals and test with the multimeter. Anything less than 12.4 volts is a good indication that the battery is weak.
