Default Can you help me figure out what this code actually means?

A a bit of background, we have never had an issue with my truck until last week, the seatbelt light blinks whenever it feels like it, even when the seatbelt is on.....it is incredibly annoying. Only 3 days later I accidentally filled the truck up with Diesel gas, and yup I ran it because I didn't know that I had put the wrong gas in. It died and was towed to the garage, the tank emptied, cleaned, oil changed and spark plugs replaced. It ran great for about 150 miles then the check engine light came on. The C-code is A4 56....I look that up to find that it is "IGNITION RUN/START CIRCUIT RATIONALITY. My question is what the heck does that mean and how do I fix it?

Please help my truck, she is a 2004 Dodge Ram 5.7 Hemi with dual exhaust, Ram air hood, automatic start and a bunch of other things that my hubs said was "good for it"

THANK YOU!

Those c codes are bs. Get a P code from your local autoparts place.

yeah...diesel not good for gas engine [:@]...but deffinitly get a P-code, the damn c-codes are pointless IMO...let us know when you get a P-code and we'll help ya out (go to a parts store and have em hook up the scan tool and pull the code for ya...it's free lol)

Thanks guys! I am currently in Germany so going to my local autozone isn't an option.....so I will try to find someone here. I have tried the on off on off on to pull up the p-codes but it doesn't work for me[:@]

Do you think there is any chance the check engine light and the seatbelt light are related?

Thanks!
