I have discovered that the right rear signal light on my 2013 R/T is always on and blinking. The front is not blinking. It has not stopped for two days now. Even with the engine running its blinking .
Has any one experianced this? Im worried that with this cold it will kill my battery. I have an appointment on Monday with the dealer but am thinking I should try to stop this before that.

 

That is weird. Quick fix is to remove the bulb.

 

Disconnecting the battery did nothing, as soon as reconnected the signal turned back on. It is also not really turning off and on, but pulsing bright and dim, and it is doing so in a repeatable way like morse code.
Removing the bulb is an option but then I have no signal light on that side.

This morning the remote start would not funtion, and my AWD will not engage, the dash is telling me to get the AWD system serviced.

I think some salty water has gotten into something and causing these problems, shorting something or confusing sensors.

Im lucky the battery did not die and it will start.

 

Well I meant take the bulb out while it is parked to keeop the battery from being run down.

 

cncninja,

I'm sorry to hear about your recent concerns. Being a 2013, it is likely still under warranty. Your servicing Dodge dealer will be able to pinpoint the root cause and address your concern.

 

Unfortunalty i have 62,000km on my DJ and its over 1 year old so I dont think the warranty will cover any of this.

 

cncninja,

Your basic warranty is 3 years or 60,000km, which ever comes first. Although you are outside by merage (2,000km) a diagnosis at your dealer would be of benefit. I would recommend speaking directly with the Service Manager as well. Bulbs however, are only covered by a 1 year 20,000km warranty.

Also, feel free to PM me if you have any additional questions.

 

It could be a broken wire in the cabin to hatch wire loom.
This has been reported as the cause of funny electrical
problems in that area before.

 

I will be speaking to the service manager, we are on a first name basis due to the constant Uconnect failures.

Is it standard practise to replace the Uconnects with refurbished units? All of my replacment were refurbs and all failed inside of 60 days.

 

cncninja,

When was your last radio replacement? Are you currently having an issue with your Uconnect.
