Asked by Sam Aug 11, 2017 at 08:33 AM about the 2004 Dodge RAM 1500

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My Ram keeps shutting off randomly. Does it while
standing mainly. Only done it twice, but want to catch it
before it becomes too big of a problem.

Check your transmission oil level while in neutral. If it real low it will do this. Do you let your vehicle warm up? Or do you put it into drive immediately? Could be bad coil packs do you have check engine lights on?

No lights on, and it did it once while cold, once while semi warmed up

I have the same truck and had corrosion in my abs plug. Took off safety clip unplugged it and sprayed electrical sensor cleaner and used paper towel fixed all the problems i wqs having.
