So a few months back I was using my spotlight powered by the center console outlet. The light and the power to the plug-in gave out.
I checked the fuses myself and all were good. So a few weeks ago I brought it to the dealer. They said," fuses were good but we are going to have to trace wires to find the problem" so I booked an appointment.
Appointment was Tuesday past and yesterday they called and said that they fixed the plug. Apparently the fuse was missing..??
Anyways he also said I have a new problem. The truck is in the garage and won't come out of park.
They ordered some kind of shift bracket for the truck and that didn't fix it so he said he's going to have to check the wires and it may be also be an ecu probelm.
I didn't think the ecu had anything to do with a transmission. But anyways that's a pretty random problem that I'm having a hard time believing.
Any comments or similar coincidences?

My comment is to never, ever take it back to that dealership.

No kidding. Next one is another hour drive away is the worst

IMO the mechanic took out and moved fuses where he wasn't suppose to but ya know how could I figure it out I'm not an automotive mechanic.

I just had an issue with the truck not going into park or out of came down to a wire disconnect in the brake pedal sensor. worth a look

Dealership is still looking at it. I'd say it's something like that. They hauled the dash apart because the outlet wasn't working to trace wire and the mechanic might have hit something I guess.
Thanks

There trying to blame it on my HIDs now. It's all plug and play. So there idiots

I told them about what you said and he's going to check it out.
Also now there is only one headlight and one taillight working.
Something is going wrong somewhere.

Anybody else with any feedback on this?

 

[RogerRamJet]

Uh, yeah, but nothin useful. Working at a dealership does not a mechanic make. You really need to have a conversation with the service manager.

ouch man, sounds like a whole **it ton of nasty wiring problems..
id get pissed off an demand to get a new truck lol (truck wasent messed up before i brought it here, hence why i refuse to take it back because they caused so many problems)

 

[fxnytro17]

Wish it was that easy haha

 

[fxnytro17]

I guess they must have put a different mechanic on it because the truck is done today. Makes no sense. But whatever I'll live with it I guess

 

[RogerRamJet]

Voonderbar! Thanks for the update. But at the slightest hint of anything... well, you know what to do.

 

[fxnytro17]

Yes everything is working fine. My gf said the led inside the truck flickers a little bit every now and then tho. Which never happened before. Get that looked at in a few weeks I guess.

"Small crunching sound ", now fan doesn't work. Probably at 20% of what it should be . The dealership ****ed my truck. Atleast I have it now and I'll be bringing it somewhere else.

 

[fxnytro17]

...bump...

 

[fxnytro17]

Bringing it to a different dealer tomorrow. Can't believe the last dealer gave back the truck without the fan inside the cab working. 30 degrees here now and AC woulda been nice.

 

[fxnytro17]

Feels like I'm writing all this to myself but anyways I'll update it anyways

Dropped my truck off at the dealer yesturday for the blower motor not working. It was suppose to be fixed today.
Anyways apparently there is major wiring issues again. Or the same ones. I think the last dealer absolutely ruined my truck. Everything worked fine before all this. Anyways I'm intitled to a rental vehicle but there's none in or around my area so I can't even get one.
If anybody around my area sees this
Do not ever but anything from royal garage or ever bring your vehicle there. It's turned into a mess and no I got that feeling that my truck will never be the same again.
Anyways I don't know what else to do except wait it out and hope for the best.

Just read through the issues you are having and this sounds awful! I can't even believe how many issues they have caused. That's the problem with mechanics who are not properly trained in the modern electronics and wiring in newer vehicles. It's not all manual brakes and carbs anymore.

 

[fxnytro17]

That's true. I guess it's more of an electrician now a days.
