How do you charge a battery in a dodge stratus and should the car be on or off?

Ignition off, hook a battery charger to the battery post and let it charge. Black - Red + Disconnect the charger before starting the vehicle. You do not have to remove the cables nor take the battery out of the vehicle. Batteries are constantly being charged on the vehicle with the alternator. That is just unnecessary work for nothing.

Since the battery is in the fender, you hook the battery charger to the jump start posts under the hood.

What would cause the airbag light to come on and the cruise control not to work in 2004 dodge stratus?

I have an 01 Stratus and this issue is caused by a broken clock spring in the steering column. From what I gather it's rather expensive to replace but I'm checking to see if there's a Dodge recall on it. If not, it could possibly be covered under a Federal warranty being the airbags wouldn't deploy if you were in an accident. Check into it before you pay to get it fixed. Hope this helps out. You need to have the system checked for trouble codes. There are many things that can turn on warning lights.

You have 96 dodge stratus it shifts in first and second but wont in third or overdrive what can you do?

No 3-4 gear is typical of the forward drum burning out the over/underdrive clutches contained within it. If it was just one gear I might suggest the solenoid pack, but those two gears together indicate more extensive problems. Had the same problem with my Stratus, ended up replacing the transmission.

The upshot is you're looking at a fairly expensive repair, whether you decide to have yours rebuilt or go for a used one. If you can do the work yourself, you may get away for under $500, but if you have to take it anywhere, you can triple that figure at a minimum. Sorry I don't have better news for you.

You need to have the system checked for trouble codes. When the trans computer detects a problem it sets a code and locks the trans into 2nd only.

How do you reset the automatic fuel pump cutoff switch on a 1985 F-350 4x4?

You should be able to reset it by pushing down on the tab on the switch. I am of course assuming that you are referring to the inertia switch. At the same time you push down on the switch take note of how hard it is to do it. It should feel quite firm if the switch is still good but if there is almost no effort at all the switch is likely shot. This applies to all Ford inertia switches of all years.

Where is the computer reset button on a 1999 dodge 1500?

This is an OBD2 system. To my knowledge the only possible way to reset the computer is to disconnect the battery. I'm not even sure this wll work. I've never heard of a reset button on these OBD2 systems. If you wanted to clear all the trouble codes then You'll need a handheld scanner tool (available at parts store). I don't recommend clearing the trouble codes until you have repaired the problem. Also once you clear the codes you'll have to drive the vehicle at least 100 miles before you have an emission test.
