Annual trip to PA was a bit of a rough weekend for the old Ram.
CEL 5 minutes down the road. Turned around, was P0441 Evaporative Emission System Incorrect Purge Flow. Took out the Purge Valve and blew it out with the air compressor and it went away. Bought one at AutoZone on the way but never installed.
Cruise completely inop. Its always been a bit temperamental, but would always work. This vehicle is particularly hard to keep at a constant speed with the accelerator lol.
Lamp Out dinger went off the rails. Constant dinging for a couple miles until I pulled over and removed a taillight so it would just stay on. (Stock taillights are mounted under flatbed to fix Lamp Out and fast blinkers). Just ordered two taillight circuit boards. This is a common problem. This used to go off every once and a while but not enough to care.
Caught a stone between the rear rotor and the shield which made this crazy loud screeching noise. Took a few minutes to figure out what it was. It was a PITA to remove, I didn't have any tools that would fit in there. Ended up using a butter knife, vice grips, and a hammer haha.
Sun visor hanger shattered when I went to hang the visor for no reason at all, odd.
CEL back on 10 minutes from home. P0139 O2 sensor circuit slow response Bank 1 Sensor 2. Will pull tomorrow and see what's up with that...
Just hit 167k. Heading to the Adirondacks Thursday.
