Or turn on key to 'run' and look to see if there is a warning light for TRAC lit up. All warning lights should light up for at least a few seconds when key is in run position but engine not started

This was just a thumbnail and I tried to enlarge it but it gets so out of focus it's illegible ...there is a good image on page 5 but I can't copy from pdf file ...click on it and it's a little better

It will not show TRAC but rather ESP and under that BAS for Electronic Stability Program and Brake Assist System (from owners manual) . It is mentioned in the manual but always followed by "if equipped" www.dodge.com/download/pdf/manuals/2008-RamGas-4th.pdf

#20 if you bed/cargo lights. You should have a button next to your light dial left of the steering wheel that says cargo and when you press that then #20 comes on to let you know it’s on.
