Dodge Ram Charging Line
Hello,
Have a question about my 2013 Dodge Ram.
I have the tow package, which according to my salesman and the service manager, has a charging line to the 7 pin connector to charge the battery on my TT.
I'm not getting a charge, so I asked about it last week while I had the truck in for an oil change...service manager looked at it and told me it was a blown fuse, but they didn't have the correct replacement size. I told him no problem, I'd just swing into an auto parts store and grab one...which I did yesterday. As I was removing the old fuse, I thought to myself "boy, this doesn't look blown" but I figured I'd replace it anyway in case it was blown and just not visible. Much to my chagrin, the new fuse did not correct my problem. Now, I'm leaving on about an 800 mile trip with the TT and have no battery charging from the TV. Of course, the dealer can't get me in until a week from tomorrow. What can I troubleshoot on my own to get this charge line working? Any suggestions? Thanks!
Oh, also, for anyone uber-familiar with the 2013 Dodge Ram, I have the large in dash touch screen that the back up cam uses, but no back up cam. is this something I can likely add inexpensively? Is there an aftermarket cam that would hook into my display?
Thanks again.
