2003 RAM 2500 “Lamp out” warning and bell. Keep getting this warning and find that all lamps are working. Relentless bell will drive you crazy.

Inspect the taillight connector plates for poor connections/damage.

Thanks for the response. Had this problem once before and couldn’t remember what I found that cleared the problem. Your response  
reminded me that I had to replace one of these connector plates to clear the problem.

I understand your frustration with the annoying bell. Ask the dealership if there’s a way they can disable the warning sound until the problem is resolved. You might also double check all the marker lights and the license plate lamps are lighting, turn signal lamps front and back, and that the brake lights are lighting when you press on the brake pedal. .
