I remember reading somewhere that one guy never had the truck honk with his trailer till he got a brake controller installed.

I personally am not sure if that activates the system or what, one of the other guys could probably clear this up.

 

I believe the horn only honks if your seatbelt is not on and the door is open. I just clicked my seatbelt behind the seat and it does not honk any more. My 07 does not honk with the truck in reverse the door open and the seatbelt buckled. I have seen others buy a seatbelt end from junkyards. Hope this helps someone

lovethatcummins man you are absoulutely correct just hook the seat belt behind your back an back-up with the door open all you want no damn horn thank you very much realy greatfull for finding this out thanks

 

Do you guys really need your door open to back up? if so.. i say invest in some mirrors that accomodate what you need to see....

 

I'm glad I helped you. This forum has been a big help to me.

I would tell you how I found that out but you would laugh at me just like my brother in law did.

Have a goodin fellas

It will only honk if you go from drive to reverse. It will not honk if you go from park to reverse. I just figured this out last weekend

 

07 ram trx, i see by your post you never pull a trailer! of course you somtimes need to open your door to back-up. that is unless you back up untill you hear it it something! there are numerous times you need to open your door especialy if you in a tight area it's always better to be sure than hit ****! i've been a proud teamster for 23 yrs. an you see semi-drivers do it all the time also!so you just keep your doors shut an back up an ram **** all the time dude. by the way my ram 2500 did come with trailer mirrors so i don't have to invest in **** just keep the damn horn from honking was all i wanted to know thank you very much lovethatcummins thanks again man works perfect

 

This should solve you honking

Hey Cap, I'm not into reading electronic patterns, so can you explain what I'd have to do to exercise that damned demon out of my truck. The SOB scares the crap out of me at the worst possible moment, though it does provide a giggle for my wife watching me go nuts !
