My Ram 3500 used to blink the parking lights when I pushed the remote to lock the doors. All of the sudden it quit any ideas why?

Could be a fuse, alarm died, or bad key....have you tried the other key?

When you say "it quit" I assume you mean it quit flashing the lights but everything else still works normally?

The "park lamp flash" can be disabled (like the horn chirp can be disabled). It's in your manual. Look up "remote keyless entry" in the index. In my 2004 manual the info you need is on page 25.

I assume you've had it to the dealer lately? Maybe they reprogrammed it? Maybe you have kids who like to reprogram things like my kids like to mess with my cell phone!

 

Thanks for the suggestions. No kids so thats not a problem. Not back to the dealer I do not take back unless I really have to. Every thing else works normal. I will check fuses and then look up in the owners manual to see if I may have screwed up something.

Mine has a quirk like that. Everyonce in a while the horn will get sick of honking when you lock it . First it will get really weak and sickly sounding for a couple of lock cycles then it will just completely quit. Let it go for a few more cycles and the thing will start working again. Its wierd

 

I don't have that problem but the one tail light stays on for awhile like on a timer. And when I press on the brake the light blinks on that side instead of just going bright. The dash says light out but I have all LEDS and have checked them and no problem.
I can open the door and the running light on one side goes on.
Have not been to a dealer
