Models: 2006 (DH/D1) Ram Truck

NOTE: This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L Turbo Diesel Engine
(sales code ETH).

Discussion:
Vehicles with a diesel engine and an automatic transmission are equipped with an alarm that
warns the customer, upon exiting the vehicle, that the transmission is not in the “Park”
position. This feature will only be functional under following conditions:

engine running
foot off the brake pedal
driver’s seat belt is unbuckled
driver’s door is open.

When this feature is triggered the horn will sound, the high beams and turn signal lamps will
flash. This will continue until one of the following conditions is met:

engine is turned off
transmission is in “Park”
driver’s seat belt is buckled
brakes applied.

NOTE: THIS FEATURE IS STANDARD EQUIPMENT AND CANNOT BE DISABLED.

Policy: Information Only

I would like to thank Bob Bergevin, Arthur Cantrall, Barry Drodge, David Lovell, Bill Maurits, and Steve for supplying the information for these bulletins. And a big thank you goes to Geno's Garage for making DodgeRam.info possible.
