Hatred? You gotta be kidding. We donate our time here to help people but I have no patience at all for the know it alls that come in here asking for help but will not listen. It quite enough work to walk a novice through troubleshooting but when they want to argue about every step and tell us how something isn't necessary because they already know what the issue is, they just aren't worth the bother.

Fix your own damn car. There are other people that need help and are willing to listen.


OH, and by the way, a noid light costs about $6. Let's see how much you throw away in wasted parts.


Fair enough. Can I get a Noid at Advance Auto or a similar place?
Thanks,
Ron

Re: 98 Ram No Power to Coil Sign In

You should be able to. I have bought them at Autozone before. Make sure you look at your injector plug first and match up the correct light because they come with different pin spacing for different makes.

Re: 98 Ram No Power to Coil Sign In

I get the feeling that this site is going away from what it was intended for. The site is to help people no matter what their skill level or knowledge. Everyone cant be a World Class Tech. Sometimes we need to swallow pride and just help people. We all came here by our own accord. We need to understand that. The posters are not our employees or our bosses. It seems to be getting worse and worse in this department. There is no need to respond to this post. Just remember why we all came here. I never saw anything that stated we needed to get in p7ssing matches with posters. Of course this is my opinion and I am probably wrong by consensus. So if I am wrong, let me know. We can hash this out elsewhere.



Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds

Ever get one in your bay and the driver says "Car Broke?" Still need paid. Gotta fix somehow.

Re: 98 Ram No Power to Coil Sign In

Don't compare sitting in my bay examining a car myself with all my test equipment to sitting behind my computer relying on someone else to feed you info that refuses to do that.

Re: 98 Ram No Power to Coil Sign In

That is exactly my point. It takes longer here because you have to communicate with someone that is not possibly on your level of expertise. This poster stated he does not have all your test equipment and he is requesting knowledge to assist him.

Re: 98 Ram No Power to Coil Sign In

As I said, you are welcome to frustrate yourself trying to troubleshoot this but I wasn't happy with the info provided nor the cooperation with my requests and I'm not the one that needs the free help. He appears to have had a change of tune in the most recent posts so we will see how that works out.

I don't get you man. I try to make nice with you and you edit it out. Why?

Re: 98 Ram No Power to Coil Sign In

I didn't edit anything out. It's all still here.

My bad. I saw the edit at the bottom and had no idea it went back so far. I will try to get the equipment and see what happens.
Thanks,

Re: 98 Ram No Power to Coil Sign In

In addition to the tests your are going run if you have a way to get the codes pulled as well, that would be helpful...

I'll make one suggestion that we normally don't do, but since we are starting at square one with the vehicle, it might be better if you copy & paste your 1st post and start a new tread and then add any additional test info to that 1st post.
This one has gone 2 pages already and we really haven't got anywhere yet.

The codes being a good point.....i don't know if they've been pulled & posted already but I'm sure not going to weed thru this whole tread looking for them....

Re: 98 Ram No Power to Coil Sign In

No, I already locked his other post. I haven't seen any test results yet and one thread of nonsense is enough.
