2001 Dodge Ram 1500 Truck wont stay on unless foot is on the pedal.
Truck wont stay on unless foot is on the pedal.
What is your question?
So about a month ago my trucks battery finally ended so i replaced it brand new one no problems started up drove and everything. Well couple days ago my father needed to borrow it so i let him. Went to go get it no power battery dead. Okay must of left a light on or something hes not use to my truck fine lets jump it. Jumped it truck started but it will not stay on unless you are giving it gas. Its been very cold lately like 5 degress night and 25 high and been sitting okay so hold onto the gas for five minutes still turns right off as soon as you let go. Brand new fuel pumped replaced like five months ago. Hasnt had any problems, but the battery died now the truck will not stay on and while jumping it the battery is at 14 volts. What do you think could be the issue, for it not to stay on?

That's really not that unusual as 'each' time battery power is removed... PCM must re-learn idle strategy... Effects will be more pronounced in 'cold' weather.
IF this is the result of the battery going dead and that's it... Run the engine and keep it running .. It may take 10 - 15 minutes... I use a Snap-On scanner to reset idle adaptive .. Check engine light on?.. Maybe there is another problem that I have no idea about until it's tested.
alright well how to i get it to re learn if the truck turns off the moment my foot leaves the pedal?

I will try and hold it down for ten - fifteen minutes and see if that works if not any other suggestions?
