To replace lost car keys, you first need to know what type of key you had—standard, transponder, remote, or smart key. For older cars with simple keys, a locksmith can usually make a new one quickly. For newer cars, you may need to go to the dealership or a locksmith who can program electronic keys.

Blowing your engine typically results in severe mechanical failure, which can manifest as a loss of power, excessive smoke, or unusual noises.

It’s essential to address warning signs early to prevent catastrophic damage.

On a 2003 Dodge Stratus, the fuel filter is located along the fuel line, typically near the fuel tank. It is often mounted on the chassis, close to the rear axle. To access it, you may need to lift the vehicle for better visibility and reach. Always ensure to relieve fuel system pressure before attempting to replace the filter.

The instrument clusters from a Dodge Stratus and a Neon are not directly interchangeable due to differences in design, wiring, and compatibility with the vehicle's electronic systems. While they may share some similarities, specific dimensions and connector types often vary, making it difficult to fit one into the other without significant modifications. It's best to consult a professional or reference a parts compatibility guide for your specific vehicle models.

In the Dodge Stratus, the back seats typically do not fold down, as the design does not include a pass-through or folding mechanism for the rear seats. This feature may vary slightly depending on the specific model year and trim level, but generally, the rear seats are fixed. If you're looking for increased cargo space, consider checking for a model with a larger trunk or other storage options.

It's a small wire that is designed to melt and break the circuit if there is an overload, protecting the starter system. You may need to inspect the wiring harness for any signs of damage or melting. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for specific details and diagrams.

Oh, dude, you're really getting into the nitty-gritty, huh? Well, the transmission fluid capacity for a 2001 Dodge Grand Caravan with a 3.3 engine is approximately 10.6 quarts. But hey, who's counting, right? Just pour some in and hope for the best!

Yes, definately.

Many taillight assemblies are equipped with bulbs with dual filaments, one for tail lights and one for brake lights. If you have one bulb with two filaments, then the problem you describe sounds like the brake light filament in the left bulb is burned out but the tail light filament is working.

Usually that means the doors are open. If they are closed, its probably the door switch. Easy and inexpensive part to fix. Its the little black switch located on the B- and C-pillars near the latch. Two screws and a electrical quick disconnect and its out. Install is reverse.

If the directionals are not working at all on a 1996 Dodge Stratus, it could be due to a blown fuse, a faulty flasher relay, a broken switch, or a wiring issue. We recommend checking these components first to diagnose and resolve the issue.

Headlight adjustment on a dodge stratus isn't too bad. Once you have the hood up the top of both headlights should be visible. you will need a wrench or something similar to loosen bolts. once bolts are removed you should be able to tilt the hadlights to your preferance. I owned a 1998 se version and my headlights had a small level on the top of each. I had some serious headlight issues. I have found that the best way to make your adjustments is by parking in front of a closed garage door or wall where your lights can shine on a surface so you can judge how much to adjust them. If you get them too low, you may as well not have headlights at all. It also helps the visibility issues to get brighter bulbs. Good Luck!

on the 4 cylinders it is wher ethe upper hose hooks to the engine

on the 2.5L v6 it is where the lower radiatoe hose hooks to the engine

<< On my 6 cyl 2.7L it is behind the alternator you have to remove the alternator which has 3 bolts 2 on top 1 on bottom to pull out the alternator you have to pull out the oil dipstick goodluck dang car is a hassle to work on no room to work in!>>

On the 2.4L the pump is driven by the timing belt. On the 2.7L it is driven by the timing chain. ON either engine the entire front if the engine has to be taken apart to replace the waterpump.

Check the plug-in for the trailer lights, if it has one. If not, check the Headlight switch. It probably has a burnt wire.

Unhook the wires on the starter, replace the fuse, turn the ingnition key on as if you were going to start the car. If the fuse does not blow, it is your starter. I just had this problem with a 1996 Dodge Stratus. I replaced the stater and it now works.

My wife has an '04 so I hope this helps you: get to the station you want. Hit the set button on the far right. Tap the number you want to set it at, or tap it twice to set it to the next number.

I mean that it acts like this:

1 2 3 4 5
6 7 8 9 10 (when the first number is tapped twice)

so that you will actually be able to program 10 stations.
Hope this helps, good luck.
