Just had that problem w/ my 01 Dekota, it was the resistor that used to be mounted on the firewall and easy to get to but that is now mounted low on the back of the engine jammed into a bey tight position. I couldn't get to it myself, so ended up taking it to neighborhood garage. Cost me about $150

SOURCE: thermostat

go to an autozone store, or similar auto parts store and they will show you exactly where it is and have a replacement you can purchase.

If you want to look yourself:
Check the hose from the radiator on the passenger side of the engine. It is in the housing where it meets the engine. facing the engine,it is on the lower part of the block,passenger side.


please mark this as a fixya! thanks.

SOURCE: Battery chaged and car DOES NOT idle

when u disconnected the battery u lost the adaptive idle learn program, do the following to clean the intake and allow normal idle

Here are some of the causes of surges, stalls at stops, slow idle speed, erratic idle speed, rough idle and engine hesitation (and other problems), it is in most cases the idle speed control air-bypass valve and or throttle valve and upper intake, these area's get full of gunk and combustion residue over the miles and cause idle issues (stalls, low idle) like yours, Get a can of intake cleaner from any local parts store, not carb spray, intake cleaner, it is made by a company called CRC, remove the air intake hose to the engine, hold the idle high so the engine won't stall, then spray the can of cleaner into the intake while keeping the engine running, use at least 1/2 the can, shut down the engine and disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, then restart and complete a number of mixed driving cycles, town, freeway, stop and go etc., after a few days the problem will go away as the system will relearn to the clean intake.

My 98 Dodge Dakota sport feels like when I'm in idle it wants to die or change's in park and sometimes when I'm stopped at a light or a stop.

Would suggest you visit Autozone and have then connect a fault code reader to your truck... it's free. A Haynes manual they sell will have the fault code numbers in it in the Emission Control section to help you determine what's wrong. Sounds like you have more than one fault code to me and one of them is a transmission code. Get back with the forum after you have the codes so we may assist you further.

2001 dodge dakota sport with 2.5 engine idles high when I start it up, continues idling high, when pushing clutch in to change gears it idles extremely high

Does it do it if you disconnect the idle air control valve ?
You need to know if its a vac leak or if the computer is making the valve open too far.

2001 dodge dakota sport dies when idleing when coming to a stop

Have you tried cleaning A.I.S. motor on side of throttle body with throttlebody cleaner? 2 or 3 torx screws normally holding it on . Remove it, clean pintle (pointed end) and shaft with cleaner, and re-install and try that. if it cures it for a while, then does it again, replace it. Be sure to spray well inside port that pintle is inserted in to clean that surface as well. ( A.I.S. = Automatic Idle Speed ) Adjusts idle as required under load conditions such as turning wheel, heater/Ac on, brakes applied etc, to step up idle to eliminate stalling.)
