Accessory serpentine belt routing: Alternator (1), idler pulley (2), P/S pump (3), A/C compressor (4), crankshaft (5), belt tensioner (6) and water pump (7)-5.7L engine

Sounds like your float for your gas guage is bad

There is a square hole on the tensioner that will allow you to use either a breaker bar or ratchet to release the tension on the belt. If your truck no longer has the belt routing diagram sticker on the shroud, be sure to take note of the belt's routing on the pulleys before you take it off.

Below are 2 diagrams, 1 with AC, 1 without for serpentine belt routing:

The check engine light has nothing to do with the running lights on the vehicle. Chances are that the headlight switch has gone bad, good luck, Dont forget to rate.

Did they work before? It is an older truck it might not have running lights. My 91 dakota doesn't have running lights.

1. Generator Pulley (1)
2. Water Pump Pulley (2)
3. Idler Pulley (3)
4. Power Steering Pump Pulley (4)
5. Radiator Fan Pulley (5)
6. Crankshaft Pulley (6)
7. Automatic Tensioner (7)
8. A/C Compressor Pump Pulley (8)

CAUTION: When installing the accessory drive belt, the belt must be routed correctly. If not, engine may overheat due to water pump rotating in wrong direction. Refer to or for correct engine belt routing. The correct belt with correct length must be used.
1. Position drive belt over all pulleys except water pump pulley. 2. Attach a 1/2 inch ratchet to tensioner.

hi, you should find a serp. belt routing diagram on the cross member that supports your radiator. if not- disconnect neg batt terminal for safety. you'll need a long breaker bar metric. as most, if not all fasteners on your ram are in metric. cant remember right size socket, but just go through your metric set and "eyeball"it. once you have the proper socket-detention the belt by pulling breaker bar clockwise. remove old belt. it maybe useful to take a picture of how your old belt is routed with a camera equipped cell phone (if it is still on) so that if you get into trouble, you can look at the picture as a reference point. new serpentine belt install--insert new belt over the cooling fan route under crank pulley-over fan pulley, around p/s pump pulley,up and around a/c comp pulley, under idler pulley, over alternator pulley and finally around tensioner pulley. pull breaker bar clockwise to slip belt past and onto the tensioner pulley. release tension on tensioner. be sure to check tensioner indexing marks located on the tensioner arm this is to make sure the new belt is installed properly. reconnect neg batt cable to terminal-remove any hand tools from engine bay, start engine and observe belt operation. hope this helps!
