One problem related to wiper has been reported for the 1997 Dodge Ram 2500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Headlights stopped working while driving at night. Headlight switch is not safe to handle load of electricity from the headlight and marker light wires. I have replaced switch 4 times and still same problem. Lights stop working because the switch melts and begins to burn. The recall for 1997 Dodge ram headlight switch should have been extended for all models built in that year.
