Brake Controller Troubleshooting/Technical Info

How did you convince the dealer to do this. My truck has the same issue but they won't fix it without some service bulletin telling them they have to. Any Dodge dealers names numbers?
Look up Tony at York Dodge in Prescott, Az. The original person that figured this was the issue gave me that name. I called Tony and got information from him, apparently two engineers were there to look at the truck and then they found that that was the issue. Tony has all of the information. I had just bought my truck and was due to leave pulling the camper 4500 miles and I bought from my dealership for years, including my family also. They would’ve even pulled it out of another truck had there have been one on their lot. I suggest you call Tony on speakerphone in front of the service department.
 
How did you manage to get the dealer to change out the controller? I tested my trailer lights today on ky new Ram 2500 and they blink intermittently, turn off then back on. I’ve only had this truck two days

Also, the lights blink every time you plug the trailer in to cycle them for testing….
 
Replaced the trailer plug today and still not working. My trailer running lights just flash and aren’t constant. Didn’t take it for a drive yet to see if the trailer disconnected message would appear. Just out of curiosity, checked the power on the truck connection and nothing on the running lights. Maybe that’s my problem. Back to the dealership, at least this time I have more information to question how they were able to test everything successfully last week
It’s likely the switch on the dash that is bad. Let me guess, 14” screen?
