How can you tell what fuse goes to what accessory without a manual?

Does it tell you on the back of the fuse panel? If not go borrow a owners manual or try the library to see if they have any manuals to loook at.

What does it mean when the engine warning light comes on for a 2002 Dodge Dakota?

You would have to connect a diagnostic tool to it to find out exactly, but, in general, the yellow check engine light indicates a problem with the emissions control system. Usually this doesn't significantly affect how the vehicle runs, and isn't a critical problem, but it does mean that the engine either may be using more fuel or may be polluting more, or both. And, if you live somewhere that requires vehicle emissions testing, your vehicle will fail automatically if the check engine light is on.

This may or may not be your problem, but (perhaps) the most common cause for the check engine light to come on in Dakotas of this age is cracked vacuum lines, particularly at a valve located near the battery, and/or near the fuel vapour canister under the cab inside the driver's side frame rail. Sometimes you can just trim the line a little shorter to eliminate the crack, but sometimes you'll need to replace the whole line. Either way, it's a really cheap fix if you do it yourself.

Also worthy of note; The check engine light can only be turned off using certain diagnostic tools, which can make it difficult to figure out if you've fixed the problem, so if you opt to purchase one, make certain that it has the ability to reset the light. Decent ones run about $50-$200.

What can cause a 97 v6 accord to turn off while turning the steering wheel?

Why does the low fuel light come on when there is a full tank of gas left?

How do you get brake lights from semi tractor to 5th wheel RV?

The easiest most inexpensive way to have brake lights and turn signals with an RV is to wire your RV plug at the rear of your tractor OFF your taillights. An RV's turn/stop lights are wired TOGETHER, sharing the same hot wire. Where as a semi trailer is wired with three separate hot wires. One each for L and R turn, and a third and separate wire for brake light(S)2. The only other way to adapt a semi trailer plug to RV is with a converter box. I've never priced one, but understand them to be expensive. I do commercial 'Towaway' w/ semi-tractor as profession and have had and seen multiple tractors wired as I just described to you. The only other advise I would give, would be to run your wires thru a weather sealed junction box ahead of where your female plug is wired on the rear of your tractor. I have seen some setups where they just tapped into tail light wiring w/out junction box and corrosion became a BIG issue after a short period of time ,especially if you run in an area where chemicals and salt are used in winter months.

How do you remove a threaded screw from a hinge?

You can buy purpose made tools for this job that you use with your drill/driver to extract them. Try hammering the correct screw driver into the back of the screw to try and get some purchase on it and then keep lots of pressure on whilst turning. Make sure you turn anti- clockwise.

Go o screwfix.com and quote 72768-88 and you'll see a powergrip set made by Irwin at a cost of £30.00 or $60.00. That's what will do the job if brute force doesn't work.

Where is the emergency fuel shut-off on a 1990 Dodge Dakota 5 speed pickup?

I doesn't have an emergency shut-off, if the pump isn't working it is either pump failure or an electrical problem. Bang on the tank while you have someone crank, this often jogs the fuel pump getting it to run, if this happens your fuel pump is bad.

What is the problem when the oil gauge on a 2000 Astro fluctuates as you accelerate and decelerate?

How much does it fluctuate? It is normal for oil pressure to rise maybe 20 pounds when you rev the engine. My SUV goes from 40 pounds to 60 pounds and then back down to 40 at idle. this is normal. The faster the engine rotates the more oil pressure is needed to keep everything lubricated properly.

Will a 2005 4.7 motor work in a 2001 Dakota with a 4.7?

No it will not. There are changes made after 03 I think. The 01 engine has a 16 tooth crank trigger and the 05 has a 31 tooth trigger. There are also possible egr port changes. I do show that the short block part # is the same from ATK. I do not see how that is possible though. Call a salvage yard and ask for the Hollander interchange,I think if they are nice you will get a answer...........
