I have a 2005 1500 slt with 5.7L Hemi, I was driving down the hwy when the truck just shut off. I coasted off the side of the road put it in park and tried to restart it. Nothing. My flashers still work my dome light works. radio still works but that is the end of what works. I have checked all fuses and replaced the fuse box under the hood and computer attached to it. Can you think of anything else I need to check before I change the main computer?
I had the battery checked and it was good. I also changed the ignition switch. Once I changed that it had a few more lights show up on the dash. Still not able to read the computer. I found that the wires going to the ignition switch have a lot of tape i think its where the remote start is wired into it. I am going to go through those wire in the morning
