Why would a little green triangle light come on on the RPM gage on a 1992 Dodge Dakota 3.9L?
if it has a manual transmission it would be the upshift indicator. it will come on to tell you the optimum shift point for fuel economy as you are driving.
Where is the iat sensor on a 1991 crx 1.6?
as i remember it's on the drivers side of the intake manifold maybe on the side
How do you disable the seat belt warning chime on a 2004 ford expedition?
I was told that in the Expedition 2004 you can push the belt release button when the chime is going off and that stops it until the door is opened the engine is turned off. Good Luck
Does dodge trucks 4 wheel drive work off a vacuum system?
Dodge 2500 and 3500 4x4 trucks use a split front axle that is engaged with vacuum lines that run from the intake to the transfer case then to the front differential.
That was true up till 2002, after that the shifter on the axle was electric if it had one at all.
2003 Dodge Dakota HeaterAC blower has stopped working what is the problem?
One common problem is the resistor, they like to get to hot and melt. The resistor is located under the passenger side glove compartment, by the fan motor. There should be two screws holding the resistor in place. Unscrew the resistor then unplug it from the wire harness. If it looks burnt or is melted, then chances are this is the problem. Plug in the new resistor and screw it back in place.
It is a cheap fix and is easily accomplished.
Can you show electrical diagram 1996 Dakota sport ignition system?
I can't provide visual diagrams, but I can describe the ignition system of a 1996 Dodge Dakota Sport. It typically features a distributor-based ignition system, where the ignition coil receives a signal from the ignition control module, which is triggered by the distributor. The system includes components like the ignition coil, distributor cap, rotor, and spark plugs. For detailed diagrams, I recommend checking a repair manual or an online automotive resource.
What is a magazine cut off switch on a browning a500?
From Browning's website - "allowing the shooter to retain shells in the magazine and eject a shell from the chamber without feeding from the magazine."
remove the door panel, window regulator, and window track. lock solenoid should now be accessable
You will have to replace the latch, the solenoid is part of the door latch.
How do you change ac pulley on 1999 dodge Dakota 3.9?
That all depends on if the pulley was factory press-fit or bolted on to the compressor shaft. if its pressed on you may be able to use a pulley extractor kit (from an auto parts store in the tools section - around $20). Some press fitted pulleys simply can't be removed, however, and you'll have to replace the entire unit.
If the pulley is a bolt on type, the bolt is usually a flush mounted Allen bolt near the base of the pulley shaft - simply unscrew the bolt and remove the pulley. You may still need the extractor if the pulley is hard to remove, though.

What turns the gear on the ford 150 49 liter distributor?
It should be turned by a gear on the cam shaft
Not without a lot of work.
You will need to replace the motor mounts, ECU and transmission. Far from a direct swap.

How do you reset the computer on a 1989 Dodge Dakota truck?
You can use a scan tool,or unhook the battery for ten minutes.
This needs attention quickly or major engine damage can result.First you should have checked your oil level,these sometimes use a lot of oil.If you have reasonably fresh oil and filter ok.If not get them sorted.If you have low oil pressure due to a failing oilpump the hydraulic tappets will not open fully so the engine cannot breathe,hence the performance loss.
How can you know if your racket and pinion and not your power steering pump that has gone bad?
pump will usally make noise while full of fluid rack will stick when cold or low rpm and work fine at times if its sometimes the problem look at rack.if fluid is dirty or real dark go to rack
Take a look at the door jam switch. It is just like any other switch, it turns the circut off and on. If it has gone bad it might not be turning the circuit off.
What does water dripping from the tailpipe indicate?
Nothing in particular. Water dripping from the tailpipe is normal. It's just condensation from the combustion process. It is much more prevalent in newer vehicles due mostly to their anti-pollution technologies.
1994 dodge Dakota wheel bearing installation?
The following was sourced and paraphrased from Haynes Repair Manual for 1987 - 1996 Dodge Dakotas.
For 4wd models; The hub and bearing assembly is a sealed unit and is not serviceable. If it is found to be defective, it must be replaced as a unit:
- Remove the hub cover and loosen the hub nut 1/4 turn, do not remove.
- Loosen, do not remove, the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle and support it on jackstands.
- Remove the wheel.
- Remove the brake caliper *Don't let the caliper hang by the brake hose, hang it up with wire or set it on a block*
- Remove the rotor.
- Remove the hub nut.
- Remove the hub assembly-to-steering knuckle bolts. Tap the hub assembly from side to side to loosen it from the knuckle.
- Using a puller, pull the hub assembly from the driveaxle and wrap the end of the axle with a rag to prevent accidental damage.
- Reinstallation is the reverse process. Be certain to lube the driveaxle-end splines with multipurpose grease. Torque the hub-to-knuckle bolts to 110 ft.lbs. The driveaxle nut torque specification was not listed, sorry.
For 2wd models using repackable, tapered-type bearings and cotter pin/nut lock type retainers:
- Loosen, do not remove, the wheel lug nuts, then raise the front of the vehicle and support it safely on jackstands.
- Remove the wheel, brake caliper, and rotor (if slip-on type). *Don't let the caliper hang by the brake hose, hang it up with wire or set it on a block*
- Pry off the the hub's dust cap.
- Remove the cotter pin (if there is one) and discard it (use a new one for reinstallation).
- Remove the nut lock, spindle nut and washer from the spindle.
- Now slide the hub/rotor assembly off slightly, then push it back to its original position to force the outer bearing off of the spindle so that it can be removed.
- Remove the hub/rotor assembly.
- Pry the seal out of the back of the hub assembly with a screwdriver. *Carefully; Take note of how it is installed and be careful not to scratch the seat*
- Remove the inner bearing from the hub.
- If you are repacking the old bearings, remove all traces of grease from the bearings with solvent, let them air dry, and inspect them carefully for cracks, heat discolouration, or wear on the rollers or cages. Discard the bearings and purchase new bearings and races if any defect is found. *Note that new bearings require new races* New races must be pressed in at a machine shop.
- Clean and inspect the bearing races. If any defect is found, the part must be taken to a machine shop to have new races pressed in. *Again note that old bearings cannot be used on new races, or vice versa.
- Use high temp. front wheel bearing grease to pack the bearings, making certain to work it completely in between all the rollers, cone and cage.
- Apply grease thinly to the spindle at the inner and outer bearing seats, shoulder and seal seat.
- Apply a small amount of grease inboard of each race inside the hub. Form a 'dam' of grease with your finger to prevent thinned grease from leaving the bearing and so that there is extra grease available to the bearing.
- Insert the packed inner bearing into the rear of the hub and put a little more grease outboard of the bearing, then place a new seal over it and tap it evenly into place with a hammer and blunt punch until it's flush with the hub.
- Place the hub assembly carefully onto the spindle and push on the packed outer bearing.
- Install the washer and spindle nut finger tight to start with.
The spindle nut is to be tightened in the following steps:
- Tighten to less than 12 ft.lbs.
- Then, while spinning the hub in a forward direction (have a friend help, if necessary), tighten to 20 ft.lbs. to seat the bearings.
- Loosen the hub nut 1/4 turn, then use your hand (no wrench) to tighten the nut until it's snug.
- Install the nut lock and cotter pin. If the nut lock slots won't line up with the cotter pin hole, remove the lock and turn it until the hole lines up with a slot.For Dakotas using the other, sealed-type wheel bearings assemblies (should only be on 4wds, but some 2wds might use them), Haynes lists no torque value for the hub nut and 110 ft.lbs. for the hub assembly-to-spindle bolts.
- Tap the dust cap into place with a hammer.
- Mount the wheels, and tighten the lug nuts.
- Check for rolling resistance, noise, and freeplay by spinning the tire. Then check the play in the bearings by grabbing the top and bottom of the tire and trying to push and pull the tire on the spindle. Any noticeable movement means that the bearings should be repacked and reinstalled, or replaced if repacking isn't sufficient.
- Take the wheel back off, then install the brake caliper, and reinstall the wheel.
- Lower the vehicle and torque the wheel lug nuts to 85-115 ft.lbs.
What causes a sudden LOUD whirring noise in the rear end of your 02 Dakota?
I have a 1998 dodge dakota. I had a whirring noise that i thought was the transmission. Was real loud when i accellerated and shifted. it turned out to be the clutch on the fan that draws air thru the radiator was locked up and would make a real loud whirring noise because the clutch wasn't slipping as well as affected performance and shifting.
Might check that out.......
Good Luck
