What are some of the dodge ram 1500 instrument cluster problems?

The Dodge Ram 1500's instrument cluster may appear dead or gauges may drop to zero and become erratic if anything in the panel is disturbed. After changing a bulb in the panel, it sometimes becomes inoperative and needs to be replaced. A Dealership may charge upwards of $900 for this repair. Some technically skilled Ram owners are able to install one themselves. Another cause of instrument failure can be fuses and in 2017 models of the ST Quad Cab 4WD, the wiring harness for the blower motor has been recalled. This assembly can affect dash and instrument panel lights. To check if Your instrument panel needs replaced, push and hold the trip button while turning the key in the ignition to "on" without starting. Let go of the button and gauges should sweep and lights illuminate if working.
