I have a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 Mega Cab with a 5.7 Hemi. The truck starts fine and will shift into reverse with no issue but when i shift into drive the engine shuts off. If i unplug the alernator wires then the truck will shift into drive and all is good. I replaced the alternator and battery but this has not fixed the problem. Any help is appreciated.

When you say WIRES, you mean the 2 pin connector, correct ?
The best I can figure is you have a wiring problem in the harness. Need to see if any DTCs are setting and try to find commonality with the field coil circuit.
The check engine ligth is not on. I have checked for any codes problems but everything checks out good. I am looking for a bad wire or something like that now.
