2016 Ram Diesel restart after sitting 9 months

[rcbbryant]

I've got a 2016 RAM diesel that's been sitting in my garage in Maine. I'm trying to get it started. First started with the battery charge. Not sure it's going to charge enough, but the charger will sit for a few hours. Once charged, is there anything else I should do? Any help is appreciated. Need to get this thing going. It's probably got only about 16K miles as I've only used it when I came up to Maine on vacation. Now I've moved here and need transportation!

Turn it to on but do not try to crank, you’ll hear the pump in the tank prime the fuel lines then shut off. Repeat that 2-3 times to make sure fuel is primed and ready to go. Check your air filter box to make sure no mice have decided to make that their home/ food pantry, then give it a try!

Thanks! That seems to have worked!
