I had the same problem with the drivers side headlamp, only hi beam worked, also the wipers would come on at start up , wipe for 5 times everytime and then turn off. Intermittent wipe wouldn't work only continuous and fast speed. Replaced the fcm and all is good. Bought it on eBay for $250, stealership wants $900 plus tax. Make sure the numbers on the replacement fcm match your original exactly.

After reading this post about these damn fuse boxes my 03 diesel has had so many of the same problem my headlight acted up I just ran a power wire to the good one and now I’m having a problem with my wipers as mentioned above the wiper are stuck on high all the time even with the truck off... I changed the motor the linkage the relays and switch so I’m thinking last but not least time to change the fuse box...
I've got a 2004 Dodge Diesel 2500 Ram & recently I had low beam go out on my driver side headlight. Certainly this can't be too hard to fix...just replace the headlight. WRONG! Replacing the headlight did not fix the problem.
I took a digital voltmeter & ck'd the bulb socket on hi & lo beam & I had voltage but still the headlight only worked on hi-beam & I continued to get an warning message on the dash. Even though I do have voltage, the fuse block/front control module (FCM) is not allowing any power to flow thru to the headlamp on the lo-setting.
I guess the next step is to 1) lift negative battery leads & 2) pull the fuse block to exam for corrosion & 3) pull connectors from the FCM & 4) replug to see if I can revive the system.
Any suggestions?
