I installed my D3 in a 06 dodge ram. I did not disconnect thew battery and shorted something out. Now my ABS, parking brake light and check engine light remain on. My speedometer and ododameter does not function, but my tach does. Also, my cruise does not work... I am getting a U1120 code and can not clear it. Any help???

 

Thank you in advance.

Did you check all your fuses? Don't know why it would cause a CEL, though...

Check all your fuses, also you might have to go to the dealer and have them reset your warning lights, I'm sure you didn't do any real damage. You might want and try to leave your battery off for maybe an hour or so, sometimes that will cause your system to reset and clear your codes. Also what harness did you use to install your radio? if you use the peripheral CHYAH05, it makes the install super easy and you should never have to worry about shorting anything out, it is all plug and play, it gives you the vss wire too.

U1120 means Invalid or Missing Data for Primary Id. you have to take it to your dodge dealer and have them reflash the computer. no major damage just be sure to use a wiring harness and be careful not to short anything because if you do, youll have to take it back to dodge again.

Thank you everyone..

 

I did replace the blown fuse, but it won't clear.

 

there is no way for me to clear it?

Hello HiFiSi - What's a CEL? Just curious.

Were you connecting your VSS wire when this happened?

to reset your ECU disconnect your batteryfor 15 min and reconnect. It should clear your lights. Worked for me on my toyota.

Disconnect the ground side of the battery for 15 minutes, that should take care of the lights. As far as the codes in the ecu, after driving 100 miles with no faults it should clear the ecu. My dad has a jeep grand cherokee and this worked for him. He said he found it on the internet. I Just dont know which site he went to. Its worth a try before going to the dealer. Good Luck
