Update: I finally changed the power distribution center (fuse block) and it finally fixed all of my lighting issues. Apparently there is an issue with the chip boards inside the PDC that are known to corrode. I do not recommend getting one from an auto salvage since those will probably have the same corrosion issue.

There was nothing wrong with the FCM so I re-installed the old one. Unfortunately the dealership does not accept returns on any electronic components. Anyone interested in purchasing a front control module (FCM). Check out ebay links. I have a new one and used one. Part numbers are 56051036 and 56049681.

I had the headlight issue 3 years ago. I got a used fusebox with a FCM attached for 100 bucks on ebay. The FCM did the trick. This year the problem came back. Luckily it was the PDC (fusebox) this time and that spare did the trick. So if you have an extra one you might want to hold on to it.

Hello again yes I changed both bulbs and I still have the same problem that's what I thought at first when my right head light went out but it still doesn't work on low beam but day time and high beam are working just fine so I tried to trouble shoot I checked the fuse box it's self looks clean and no corrosion then I went to the wiring harness to look for broken wires so I put it all back together retaped back together and tie raped all is good there then I checked the head light switch appears to be in good shape and the multi function switch seems to work just fine I have a mechanical background not licenced but know what im doing so when I talked to costumer service I really got no where with them because like I have said before there are no recalls on this issue and there should be with out the public to buy you're product there is no dodge is thus what you want to happen because if you dont stop treating us like crap people will shop else where and word is getting around about dodge
