I have a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 Sport, (5.7L Hemi). I have 98,000 miles on my truck & has been regularly serviced.
Over the last few years it has stalled out, only a FEW times, usually when coming to a quick/hard stop. This morning, with the AC off, while driving easy, pulling into a parking lot, it stalled for no apparent reason. I put it in neutral & it started right up; no lights &/or codes.
The idle seems slightly rough on occasion.
NOTE: When in park or idling in drive, the AC blower motor slows slightly. As soon as I hit the gas, even the slightest bit, the blower picks up to normal speed. Also, I'm not positive, but I believe my interior lights will dim in the same manner as the blower slowing down at idle.
Is there anyone out there who has had similar issues &/or is there someone who might know what my problem is how to fix it?
ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANKS IN ADVANCE.!!!

 

Start with cleaning the throttle body.

Various electrical things slowing down/getting dimmer at idle is normal. Alternator isn't putting out quite enough current at low rpm.

 

Is there a high(er) output alternator I could install to solve this issue? I don't remember my truck always doing this, though it has been doing it for awhile now.
My true concern is the occasional stalling. Although it has only happened 3-5X over the last 4 or so years, I am worried it might eventually stall & not restart. About 2 years ago I replaced the crankshaft position sensor.

 

Or could just install a slightly smaller pulley on the alternator, so it is spinning faster, even at idle. Not sure a higher output alt would make any difference.

 

Might want to disassemble and clean your battery and alternator contacts, bad connection can cause that condition as well. Check for corroded wiring while you're at it. I use CRC battery terminal protector, once everything is back together I'll spray over the connectors to ensure they don't corrode again.

 

Thx, going to take a look & check the connections ASAP.

 

Make sure the battery still has enough juice too. A battery that's dying out can make your electronics go bonkers...
