I need help please
I have been searching, without luck forums that address the issues I am having with my 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT 5.7 Hemi (Big Horn addition) without luck.
All at once this morning my airbag and ESP light (as well as the ESP/BAS warning light) came on. The following things don’t work at all this morning as well:
HVAC, horn, windshield wipers or washer pump, bake lights (except the 3rd light on the cab does work, and the tail lights work as well), the rear sliding window, all power outlets, door lock buttons (window buttons work fine), key fob will not unlock (but lights will still flash as if it worked) and the starter assist.
Any suggestions?
Could this be a PCM issue?
Thank you in advance!

Sounds like a Bad TIPM. Mine went out last year and caused havoc on everything Electronic. Locks, Windows, horn, you name it. Ordered a new one from parts.com for about $300. The TIPM is the "Totally Integrated Power Module" This is the computer on the bottom of your fuse box. Do you have HID's? This issue is not unheard of if you have Cheap HID's or if Moisture has gotten in the Box underneath the Fuse box.

Sorry to hear this. Is your Ram still producing these concerns? Have you brought this to your dealers attention?
Thanks,
Wow this is surprising, When I posted my thread about similar issues and asked for DodgeCares's Help, Got no response. Chrysler and a dodge dealership told me that I was screwed and they wanted to charge me $2000 to fix it. I fixed it for $300 and found then out that the Bad TIPM had also Burnt to a crisp 9 other wires that I had to rewire. Really Pissed me off.
If you haven't already, disconnect the battery for 30 min or so and reconnect. PCMs occasionally get confused. I know they're not supposed to but it is was it is.
