| Description of the problem | Tipm replaced in a 2004 ram 1500. Replaced defective totally integrated power module (tipm). Fuel pump wouldn't shut off, wipers turning on by themselves, both sides of my tail lights blacked out, no power. Found out the ground to the tail light relay in the tipm failed . Had to replace the tipm on 1-20-16 at a dodge dealer. All problems happened when the vehicle was either stationary, in motion, on a city street or a highway or turning. I also received a ticket for no tail lights. Without tail lights caused by a faulty tipm it created the unsafe condition and caused a safety risk of getting into an accident |
