the annoying drip
the annoying drip
I have a 2005 dodge ram 2500 qc 4x4 speed cummins turbo diesel that I bought new and had the dealer install cab lights... Well everyone and a while on the drives side the top screw cover in the apillar grab handle will leak a little water when it rains... the dealer has looked at it and said the lights are fine and they did a tsb about where stripping... anyone else have this problem??
Man I WISH mine came out of my grab handle! Mine has a leak through the little clip that holds the viser in place and that drips like right on my leg! I am alomost positive mines from my lights though.
I bought my truck new and it had the same leak from the visor clip, the dealer could not find it. So I took out the screws for the cab lights and put just a bit of silicon on them no more leak.
This fix is for a leak at the grab handle. This area leaking is almost always from the door strip screws.
I have not had any leaks higher than that with my factory cab lights.

I had this same problem with my stock cab lights. I had a small drip at the passenger visor clip when it rained. One of my lights had a hair line crack in it that was causing the leak. I bought another set of lights out of the classifieds here and replaced the bad one. No leaks since then.
my lights were added by my dealer after I bought my truck new... I will check the door strip screws.. thanks for the advice.... would hate to drop the headliner to fix it..
