Installing a Remote Start System in Your Dodge Ram 1500 morsunled.odoo.com
One of the most common owner concerns after installing a remote start system involves the 2018 Dodge Ram 1500 headlights. When you remotely start your 2018 Dodge Ram 1500, the headlights typically illuminate automatically as a visual confirmation that the vehicle is running. This is a factory safety feature designed to prevent someone from accidentally leaving the engine running in an enclosed garage. However, several issues can arise depending on how your aftermarket system is wired. First, if the installer (or you) incorrectly taps into the wrong lighting circuit, the headlights may flash rapidly, stay on permanently after shutdown, or fail to turn on at all during remote start. More critically, if your truck has aftermarket HID or LED headlight upgrades, the sudden current draw from the headlights during remote start can sometimes interfere with the remote start module, causing the system to abort the start sequence.
