Check engine light stays on - 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins

The check engine light on my 2006 Dodge Ram, 2500 Cummins 4x4 stays on. Recently it would come on and then go off. Now is on all the time. Have no special after market add ons. Truck is basically stock except for suspension upgrades and in bed goose neck hitch. What is wrong?

I have got a 2000 dodge ram 2500 cummins 4x4 that the Temperature Gage doesn't move and the Heater doesn't get very warm. I have changed the Thermostate, with no change......

Have you checked the block pressure.There was a problem with the impellor coming loose on the water pump which causes low block pressure and reduces circulation.You should also check the vent line to the rad and make sure the jiggle pin in there is ok it sounds like the system may be air locking

Cummins dodge 2500

No, you don't have to remove the cab. Pull the radiator, A/c condenser, trans cooler and core support and pull it straight out the front.
