    My turn signals would occasionally stop working for no apparent reason and would only work after disconnecting and reconnecting the battery for my 2007 dodge caliber, so I took out the POS TIPM, found a few of the pins had some green corrosion, sprayed it with electrical contact cleaner until the green was gone (let it dry of course) and so far ZERO ISSUES.
    Thanks to your video I was able to remove the connectors without breaking them and do a good cleaning. (Edit, there appeared to be no corrosion on the circuit board so I didn't take it apart further then the top cover and fuses)

      The starter circuit I went to auto part store had starter tested it tested bad or so they told me but I grew up in a junk yard so I went back home I just came out of hospital with heart surgery so I test starter with jumper cables and 10gauge wire. Hooked to main terminal of starter + then grounded the starter with jumper cables. Touched 12+to starter to solenoid on the starter it bench tested fine. Next I simply reinstalled started (I just had heart surgery so I only have one had to work with but it my hospital ride)
      Next simple remove connector from starter solenoid went to Napa or any auto parts store (parts needed one electrical I ring connector to fit on starter main terminal 12+ 6ft gray 12 gauge wire with a gray vinyl jacket and inline fuse with a 10 amp fuse I hooked it to the 12 volt big terminal on the starter after I took the battery loose always take the battery loose first unbolted the terminal put the iring under there with the wire on it with the fuse on that side I ran it up to the driver's cabin on the inside I looped it through my clutch switch cuz I have a standard transmission and hooked it to my push button switch the black wire went back to the solenoid on the starter which I used a red butt connector crimp it halfway shut and pushed it on the terminal I coded everything with liquid tape and electrical tape to keep the moisture out which the manufacturer should do but they do not push the clutch down turn the key on to the ignition come on and I push the starter switch button and the POS started take the space shuttle out of your cars guys we're not going to be flying in outer space anytime soon I hope this helps some of you poor guys because I was having a tough time in one hand after being in the hospital thank you for listening to my nonsense I have others if you need them like how to get rid of those body control modules for the rear in the front the 1500 a piece

    The TIPM looks slightly different on my 2005 Ram 1500 where the main power is at the end furthest from the fender, but it has the main power connection, and it is corroded. I am having little success getting that nut loose. I am soaking it in PB Blaster, but there is not much holding it except the plastic case of the TIPM and the way it is connected to the circuit board it connects to so it isn't like I can put a huge amount to force on it. It is surrounded by plastic, so heat is not an option. Any suggestions other than continuing to soak it in penetrating oil in hopes it will eventually make its way in enough to get it broken free?

    I have an 04 3500 that I’m having some electrical issues with. I cannot control the headlights/running lights most of the time, most of the time they turn themselves on and off, etc without my intervention. This happens whether the truck is running or not. I’ve replaced the headlight switch in the dash and checked all the various connectors for corrosion and it’s still doing it. Do you think corrosion in the TIPM could be causing this?

    • @4DIYers
      @4DIYers  4 года назад +2

      No problem and thank you! It's quite possible, the TIPM can cause quite a few issues on these trucks. You would need to look at a wiring diagram in order to determine where all the circuits are tied in. However I would be surprised if they just wanted to throw parts at it either. If they have the work written up as a TIPM replacement, clean it yourself instead. As mentioned in my video, if you do find a faulty pin which is an option equipped on your vehicle, have someone who does electrics work replace it. It will be by far cheaper than the replacement, I believe the TIPM alone is around $600.
