2015 Ram C/V Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2015 Ram C/V may sound simple, but a reset without a proper diagnosis only hides an active fault and risks larger failures. Our team at Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Ram FIAT Denver recommends a full diagnostic scan before any reset. Certified technicians use OEM diagnostic tools to capture pending and stored codes, review freeze-frame data, and test systems to determine root cause. When a reset is appropriate after repairs, we document the repair and provide calibration where needed so the vehicle’s computer relearns correctly. Choosing dealership service means you benefit from OEM parts, factory repair procedures, and warranty-backed labor that protect both performance and resale value. We also emphasize transparent pricing and the immediate and long-term savings of accurate repairs—preventing repeat visits and protecting components like catalytic converters and ignition systems. We offer service financing so you can complete repairs now and pay over time, and we routinely publish service specials to lower your upfront cost. To book an appointment, schedule service online with our Denver team and get a clear, professional diagnosis rather than a temporary reset.

2015 Ram C/V Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine light codes for a 2015 Ram C/V often include P0171/P0174 (lean conditions), P0300–P0306 (misfires), P0420 (catalytic efficiency), and sensor faults such as P0101 (MAF sensor) or oxygen sensor codes. Each code points to potential issues: lean codes can lead to poor performance and accelerated component wear, misfires can damage the catalytic converter, and ignored sensor faults can reduce fuel economy and increase emissions. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Ram FIAT Denver we evaluate the cost impact of delayed repairs and provide clear estimates that show immediate savings (repaired fuel economy, avoided part failures) and long-term value (preserved engine life). Our technicians use factory tools to confirm whether a sensor needs cleaning, repair, or replacement and whether additional components were affected. Because we stock OEM parts and follow factory procedures, repairs last longer and frequently cost less over time than repeated fixes.
