My truck won't start. Tried so many things, I'm out of ideas.
Hello everyone,
I own a 2004 Dodge RAM 1500 2WD with 4.7L engine, very basic model, with automatic transmission.
I did not drive it for 3 or 4 weeks, not even start it.
So when I tried to start, dashboard lighted up, but it was strange.
>> When I turn the key for ignition, BRAKE + ABS lights blinks for one time.
Each time I turn for ignition, the same thing happens.
>> Dashboard won't show up my battery voltage
>> Dashboard won't recognize the speed where my transmission is (normally there's a square around the P, R, N or D position.. Nothing!)
>> I tried to change my battery for a new Optima Red 34, nothing changed
>> There's a very small "CLICK" sound coming from engine compartment when I turn the key for ignition
>> When my mechanic manually pushed on the Starter relay, the engine cranks but won't start
His thought is , my car won't start because it does not recognize the parking position anymore.
Thanks to everyone!
Is this a good question?

Hi,
Can you or your mechanic access the OBD2 port with a scanner tool? It may give an indication what is going on. Here is a link, can't see your year model but may give some help.
