2027 ram 1500 Check Engine Light Codes

At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Ram FIAT Denver in Denver, CO, we see several common codes for the 2027 ram 1500: P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0300–P0304 (misfires), P0171/P0174 (fuel trims), and sensor-related codes like P0135 (O2 sensor heater). Left untreated, a P0420 can lead to failed emissions inspections and costly catalytic converter replacements, while repeated misfires (P030x) can damage the catalytic converter and reduce fuel economy significantly. Fuel-trim codes that remain unresolved cause poor throttle response and higher fuel consumption. Our certified technicians perform a systematic diagnosis — from live-data scans to targeted component tests — to isolate root causes and present clear repair options. Choosing service at our Denver dealership means factory-grade diagnostics, OEM parts, and technicians trained on Ram systems. We balance speed and precision to minimize repair time and maximize long-term value. For convenience and to apply any current offers, check our service specials and schedule service online.

2027 ram 1500 Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2027 ram 1500 is simple with the right approach, but an accurate reset must be preceded by a proper repair.

Miller Chrysler Dodge Ram FIAT Denver our technicians use OEM-level tools to read and clear codes, verify repairs with drive-cycle testing, and ensure systems return to normal operation. We emphasize transparency: you receive a full explanation of codes, a repair estimate, and the long-term savings of fixing the issue correctly versus a quick reset. Warranty repairs must be performed at a certified dealership to remain valid — we handle those claims and use genuine OEM parts. We also offer service financing if you'd prefer to pay over time.
