Hey guys,
Thanks in advance for any help.
My trucks been acting up in the last 2 months and now my mechanic is saying the key could be losing its signal and when i called dodge they said its possible but when i googled everywhere said its not. About 2 months ago my truck wouldnt start so i had it towed to me mechanic and he said it was the fuel pump, replaced it and she started fine up until about 3 weeks ago. Went to go start her up and there was full spark and the crank felt strong but she just wouldnt catch and it felt like there was no fuel going through. Tried a couple more times with no luck but then i tried my oem remote starter with no key in the ignition and sure enough she starts. Truck runs fine for about a week and then same issue, this time she wont start even with the remote starter. Tow it to the mechanic and he said the battery was weak and replaced the cables with battery and she works fine up until a couple days ago. Go to get a car wash and sure enough she decides to act up while im in the bay. I call the mechanic and he rushes down and looks around and he banged my rear driver door a couple times and what do you know, it worked. Hes saying its the key and because i only have the one i cant verify it so im about to get a new key cut but at $250 a key i want to make sure that its at least possible for the key to lose its transponder signal. Any help is appreciated boys
