2014 Ram 1500 Sport heated seats and steering wheel issue

Post by playincrzy »

I have a 2014 Ram 1500 Sport with heated seats and steering wheel. After programming the truck with the DCX, the heated seat for the driver seat and steering wheel turn on after starting the truck. The passenger seat operates normally, off until I turn it on. I made sure all accessories were turned off before starting the programming. I updated the DCX and the pcm calibration as well first. I reloaded the original pcm program, and it continues to do the same thing, again verifying everything was turned off. Now if I take it to the dealer, they're going to notice something's not right. Please help with an update to the programming to correct this issue. I'm not sure how that is linked together, but the heated equipment did not do this before programming the truck. Also, the truck has the optional remote start and proximity start system, aka, keyless start, and the upgraded stereo with navigation.

did you do anything else in the parameters or quick adjust, or just loading the tune?

You may have turned them off on the dash but when you start it with the remote it turns these on automatically. You have to go into the settings and deselect these options.

I didn't adjust anything else and I didn't use the remote start feature. It turns out that the truck automatically turns these features on if the temperate outside is too cold. I asked a gentleman from the dealership. I ran the truck today after it warmed up and it performed as normal. I programmed the truck again and all is ok. Thanks for the help anyways. Make a note of it, lol.
