To check the Transmission Fluid in a Dodge Ram diesel, start by parking the vehicle on a level surface and engaging the parking brake. With the engine running and the transmission in "Park," locate the transmission dipstick, usually found near the back of the engine. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, reinsert it fully, and then remove it again to check the fluid level. The fluid should be within the marked range, and if it's low, add the recommended type of transmission fluid as needed.
