Two problems related to headlights turn off while driving have been reported for the 2006 Dodge Ram 1500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The tipm needs to be replaced. The headlights went out on me driving to work at 3:00 am (in the morning) pitch black out. Almost wrecked or died. This is not something acceptable. There jhave been many complaints and nothing is being done. Dodge has a problem here and it needs to be fixed now!!!.
For more than 1 year, the tachometer in my Dodge ram has functioned intermittently. On 3/25/15 I noticed that the driver-side low-beam headlight bulb was out. I replaced the bulb without effect. My mechanic diagnosed the tipm module as the culprit for both the headlight and tachometer failure. He will replace the module, at a cost of roughly $1000, when a replacement can be obtained. It is estimated that it will be at least 4 weeks from the time of diagnosis before that replacement tipm will be available. In the meantime, I must drive my truck with only one headlight and then I will have to pay more than $1000 to have this repaired.
