they are removed from inside the hood ,, they twist in and out

Take a picture of it and draw a diagram before you remove the old one. Why does every vehicle owner have this problem?

if turns over hit the reset button on the feul
if not there is a fuse under the hood check all fuses

I am shocked that the dealer cant fix it, even after warranty. But it sounds like a switch/sensor on the transfer case, or the 4x4 is engaged, and the computer hasnt relayed it to your dash. Can you feel the 4x4 engage? You should be able to.

you dont need to chandge them can go up to 120000 check you owners manual for exhact milege

Try this:
* Turn key ON (engine OFF, don't start run)
* Press brake pedal slowly 2 times
* Press gas pedal 2 times within 10 seconds
* Turn key off

Hope helps (remember rated this) Good luck.

This indicator lamp is for the Electronic Throttle Control. If it is on while the engine is running, the vehicle should still be drivable, but requires a service check. If it is flashing while the engine is running, the engine will run poorly or not at all.

It is normal for this lamp to come on for a few seconds when you first start the engine, this serves as a test to be sure the lamp is working.

If it runs on gas, it has plugs. They should be under the 4 coil packs down the center of the valve covers on each head.

im pretty sure this is auxilary emission control---could be a leak in a vacuum hose or anywhere in emission system. hope this helps.

By "Replace the gas cap", do you mean put it back on, or buy another one? If you fuel these trucks with the engine running, or don't tighten the gas cap, the light will come on. It will also come on when the seal in your gas cap goes bad. I have had to replace the gas cap on my jeep and dodge already. It fixed the problem both times.

there are harnesses available but if you have a towing setup on there splice into that wire then install connectors on cap to make install and removal of cap easy

It could indicate any number of problems,the best thing to do is go to a local shop or auto part store and have them do a diagnostic code reading,then if they don't tell you what the code means,post back and we will.

I have the same problem. It started with engine code 0440 (evap system malfunction). I changed the gas cap and now getting the "loose cap" light plus the 0456 (evap leak very small) and 0457 (gas cap loose/off)

Anyone know where the sensor is located?

Sounds like a cv shaft or cv joint

the codew is to detect a bad thermostat, it can also be set by a bad engine coolant temperature sensor, if you have not replaced these then I would try the ECT first.

change fuel filter spark plugs and wires+coils.

The brake and ABS light both come on when you are receiving no speed signal. Most likely the speed sensor in the top of the rearend is bad.

I can not solve this but with more information I may be able to help. If your truck is equipped with an automatic trans it could be a problem with the TIP system. See page 305 in owners manual. I do not know what the Tip is but I know that my truck will not crank and it has a TIP system. TIP is not Installed on manual transmissions. If your truck is manual then you have a possible of 4 corrective actions. 1. Ignition switch. The switch is adjustable and maybe out of adjustment. 2. Starter sel-a-noid . Follow the big wire from the starter it should be connected to the selanoid . it can also be part of the starter. 3. The starter could need new brushes. and 4. A loose wire at the selanoid.

if its in the right front axle theres a small bearing in the axle housing tube that is hard to see that keeps the axle from moving around
