Default 2010 Headlight problems

Currently looking to replace my older Ford truck with a '10 Ram with the Hemi and TRX package. Only problem is the passenger side headlight does not seem to operate at all, even after a new bulb. Owner says he hasn't had it diagnosed since its just outside the bumper to bumper but the service tech advised him it might be the wiring. Based on some web searching, it seems this may be a faulty FCM? Or at least one person solved a similar problem by thoroughly cleaning the FCM plug contacts.

Any thoughts?

Low and high beam are BOTH not working?

Back at the TIPM (fcm) flip it over and check the oval grey connector pins 7 high beam White/Grey, 16 low beam White/Tan for power with a test light. With the headlamps on of course. No juice...you need TIPM.

Make a call to CHrysler and see if they'll help you on the part.

If it is just outside of warranty they may still cover the repair. PM DodgeCares here and ask about the situation.

Where is this TIPM located. I have a 2010 Ram 1500 and the Driver side headlights(Low & High beam) stopped working. Dealership wants $1200 to replace the TIPM. Any way to do the repairs myself? Can I get the parts anywhere besides the dealership?
