Heater core installation diagram for 1997 Dakota?

Answer 1

you can find some info in a haynes or chilton manual from advance auto parts or auto zone. i have a 1997 Dodge Dakota and i replaced the evaporator core,which is inside the ac unit under the dash.you have to pull the dash out.To do this you'll need to disable the airbag,so you do not set it off,when you pull the steering wheel off.you have to pull the steering wheel to get the dash out of the way.then you have to unbolt the ac unit from the firewall.the bolts are on the firewall under the hood. I think there are 4 of them.there is one behind the bracket that holds your ac accumulator to the firewall,that's the toughest one to find.once you get it unbolted from the firewall it should be easy,assuming you have disconnected all your ac refridge lines and your heater hoses under the hood that are attached to it. the book tells you most of it.some you will have to figure out yourself. i struggled a little,because i had never done it before,but in the end i did it for $150 and my time,versus $938 the shop wanted to charge me. good luck,hope I helped.
