Thanks for the reply. The code list doesn't show the p0576,any ideas. Also the cruise doesn't work and the air bag light stays on all the time. The radio controls on the steering wheel doesn't work either.I pulled the panel off that's under the steering and didn't see anything disconnected.

Clock spring needs to be replaced for the cruise and radio controls. 77,000 seems a little early to have to replace it already. I have 156,000 on my truck and still the original clock spring.


If the third digit in your VIN is a "1", your DTC means Infl Rest System Indicator Circuit Malf.
If the third digit is a "2", the DTC means Temp. Gage Data Out of Range


Has the truck been in a wreck? Have your insurance agent check it in the database the insurance companies share for vehicle claims data. This database has info Carfax will not catch. Do not trust Carfax.

Hope this helps some.

Thanks for all your help guys. Hopefully we can get the car dealer to take it to the local Dodge dealer and get it fixed. If not, we will keep looking!!

Thumbs up It's a Ram

Well, my son is now the proud owner of a 2001 Cummings.The clock spring was replaced at the dealers on recall,codes are gone, and things are going his way.

Thanks again for all the help.I don't know what we would do without this site...Frank

Eeeeexcellent news.

Some dealers are much better to deal with than others.
That's especially true when you have a Cummins Diesel.

Sounds like you found a "Keeper".

Congrats
