http://dodgeram.info/Engine-Gas/OBDI/Fault-43.htm I'd have the charging system components checked. Might want to check the battery terminals and cables first, before spending money.

And any chance you can add ALL the info about your truck to your sig AND profile? We don't even know what year it is. I suspect code 77 is for an oil burner no less.

Does the 97 show different codes, insteard of Pxxx codes?

And I agree with zman on checking electrical connections. Loose connections can manifest in symptoms all over the place - which is what it looks like you have!
