Dodge Dakota - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support
1997 Dodge Dakota stalling and loping?
This might not be engine related. More information please. Does this happen only when you turn the steering or all the time? Is it just when reversing or both directions? Test this by reversing slowly in a straight line for about about one truck's length then gently start turning the steering wheel. Listen and feel for what happens as you turn the steering.
Transmissions can also affect how an engine behaves when their put into gear. Do you know if it has been serviced in the past?
Have you had it scanned for OBD Trouble Codes? All cars after 1996 have to have this system fitted. Scanning for codes will tell you if it is a sensor causing the issue.
If you have to pay for the service ask at 4 or 5 different places as prices can be VERY different. Comment below with the codes and I'll try to help you more.
Turn signals wont work but flashers do
Hi.
On your 98 Dakota.
Is equipaded with a single Flasher.
If you replace all ready.
Check the FUSE # 10, 15 amp..
On the Fuse box. left side of Dash.
and the FUSE D 25, amp. On engine compartment Fuse box.
Check the proper funtion of the HAZARD switch.
Bacause if the Hazard switch is bad the turn signal don't will work. Match the OLD flasher with the New one.
If after of this still not work.
Remove the steering wheel cover, locate the Turn signal switch connector and with a TEST Light check power with the Key ON
12v. to the RED wire and PINK wire..
If you found 12v. check the connection with the switch.
If the connection is good. you will need to replace the turn signal switch.
But if you don't found 12v. You need to look a an open circuit.
And fix it..
I hope this help on your problem..
Thank you for use fixya...
