2001 Dodge Ram 2500 Truck Questions & Answers
Dodge 2001 2500 5.9 driving down the road truck dies when it gets warm let it sit for 10 minutes cools off starts back up
From your description it could be almost anything from a blocked fuel tank breather to a bad wiring connection with lots of stuff in between.
You need a few clues and as it takes only ten minutes of cooling before you can restart they won't be easy to find without luck or unless a fault code has been stored in the memory. I suggest you begin with a code read and then scan the ECU to check any freeze frame data.
Few electronic sensor faults will actually stop an engine but the crank/cam sensor and/or circuit will, though if such a thing had happened the engine check light would have come on as soon as or just before the engine cut.
Without the afore-mentioned luck such a problem as yours is likely to be found by careful and systematic checks designed to discover what is definitely not at fault. and then concentrating energies onto what remains - even if it means springing into action to use that ten minute window for more revealing checks.
A co-pilot checking live data with a scanner while you drive would be a fine aid to discovering an elusive electronic fault, an obd recorder would offer an alternative.
The trouble is the fault might not be electronic...
Clues are needed...

The air conditioner on my dodge truck started
It sounds like vacuum is not getting to the vent, heat and A/C controls. Find the vacuum can. It may be under the hood on one of the inner fenders. The "one-way" check valve is usually located in the line and close to the can, make sure it works properly. The valve could be the very thing that's causing the problem. Trace the lines back to the vacuum block at the intake manifold or fire-wall, and also back to where the line goes thru the fire-wall. Check the can for leaks or obvious holes. They used to be just a plain metal can, but it could be a plastic ball. Check the lines as you go, for breaks and rub-thru's. Move the controls thru all settings and listen for vent door movement. Worst case is a bad vacuum motor or air flow position selector switch, and/or a faulty Blend Door Actuator. If you have been driving around with the Temperature knob or control set at the same spot for months, move it from fully cold to fully hot several times and wait for the air temperature to change each time. This will help reset the blend door and vacuum control system. Hope this helps... Let me know what you find.
I have an 02 dodge ram and the air bag light comes on when turnin
It sounds like the clockspring is defective. It should have a stored code in the airbag module for "drivers squib circuit open". A new clockspring should take care of it. Disconnect the battery, remove the steering wheel and the upper and lower column shouds to gain access. After reassembly, turn the key on first before reconnecting the battery. That way if something went wrong with the repair and the airbag accidently deploys, you will be outside the vehicle safe from injury. I hope this helps.

sounds like you may need to replace the electronic flasher. it is a relay located typically in the fuse panel inside the vehicle
