I have a 2021 RAM 1500 3.0L ecodiesel. It has 80k miles on it. I have been pulling the fuses and cleaning the DEF injector to reset the "Engine will not start, service DEF system, see dealer." Message. And that worked for a few months. Now that trick doesn't work. Probably because the warranty has been expired for 5k miles. I'm looking for suggestions and reqs on delete kit for EGR and DEF system as a permanent solution to this problem. HELP!!
 
First this is an HD forum you wont likely get the infoyou need here like you might on other forums more geared towards the 1/2 tons

second, most people will not throw that info out to you since delete tuners have been getting shut down by the EPA hard.

Have you tried to fix the issue properly? And what errors and codes are you getting?
 
Thank you for your quick response.

1st of all when I Googled my problem this forum came up multiple times, so i figured that people must use this forum for this 1/2 and 3/4 ton trucks. Please forgive my assumptions.

2nd of all, I have been dealing with this issue for 1 year. Started at 59k and every month since. Multiple times to the dealership, they wanted to "throw parts" at it to see if it would fix it. I was quoted $600 to $1600 a time. Different parts every time. Finally they admitted that they don't know what would fix it. They just wanted to spend my money on new parts, and hope that fix it. I have read on this and other forums about the delete process and suggestions. And most people point out that the weight reduction process is the permanent solution to the DEF system problem. But if that's not the case, please enlighten me. What else can be done? I have a 2021 paperweight at this point sitting in my yard. My 1st and last RAM product, POS of you ask me.

Diesel emission issues are a problem cost all brands so you can’t blame ram for that. As far as your wanting to delete that is a permanent solution but be sure your state does not have emissions testing. I am not familiar enough with the eco-diesel so I don’t know who is offering for these vehicles. I understand your frustration as I also had to delete my 2019 2500 of DEF issues.


Edit: I see Dirty Diesel customs has some “solutions” you should give them a call (better to call them if you are in the US as they are in canada) i use them for my tuning and parts they are great to deal with
