Dodge Dakota - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support - Page 6

If the pump is ticking or making any noise other than a smooth whirring sound, it's bad and needs to be replaced, the fact that the pump makes noise usually means the relay is working. I hope this helps. Take Care.

Hello kueldtk.
According to Dodge manual there is no provision for left/right adjustment on your Dakota.
"No horizontal (right/left) adjustment is required for this headlamp beam pattern. The high beam pattern will be correct when the low beams are properly aimed."




Turn the headlamps ON and select the LOW beams. Open the hood and move aside the air shield (1) from the inboard side of the front lamp unit (2) as needed to access the headlamp vertical adjustment screw (3). Rotate the adjustment screw on each lamp to adjust the beam height as required.
This should solve your question.

start with your fuses then get back to us

Check the bulbs for continuity, the bulb holders for internal corrosion and the connections themselves for integrity.

The pickup tube is a bad design in these engines, I have fixed several with the same problem, you can weld on a GM screen move it 1/4 of a inch away from the pan or add 1 inch to the bottom of the pan, (use a high volume pump) the problem is the screen is too close and too small and will pick up any sludge off the bottom. also it's great to make a access plate on the bottom of the pan using a Volkswagen Bug oil cover plate, it can be removed with bolts after a oil drain to clean the screen without the hassle of removing the whole oil pan by lifting the engine on these trucks. Good Luck

do you have power to coil --check relays- fuses and harness

no only pumps fuel ---spark is ignition systen --coil- plugs-distributor

most videos are on youtube so thats your best location

dealers make new keys and program them also

You say is short about what size about what I need more or less

On top of the a/c compressor.

a bad crank sensor or dist pickup plate can cause this.... check the fuses in the fuse block under the hood for any blown ..... a bad auto shut down relay may cause it .....try putting a test light on the green and orange wire and see if it lights up when you try to crank it

Check the switch on the brake pedal first, then if you have power to it and power goes out when pedal is pushed you probably have a broken wire under the chasis

Yes this may help try a new ignition switch .i had a 93 and it done the same thing to me .hope this help you ....

Are you serious? Remove the steering column cover and change the switch. Pretty easy!

75W/90 gear oil.

Start with the most basic item: check your compression. Low compression gets lower when an engine gets warm.

Yes, the engine is being overfuled if blowing black smoke. Possible internal leak of fuel pressure regulator. Possible sticking/stuck EGR valve. Possible computer supplying more fuel due to a sensor supplying false information. A scan tool will be required to determine if one or more sensors is supplying erratic info
