1992 Dodge Dakota Questions & Answers
My1992 dodge dakota just shut down and wont start
i don't know. make sure you have fuel and your battery tries to start truck with your head lights on. if truck is not trying to start, you could try boosting your battery. always hook up the low battery first. my car stopped once because the battery was dead. the wire at battery terminal was loose and corroded.
i have fixed an olde man's engine by pushing the vehicle's coil wire back, into the distributor cap. i had an air lock to
my fuel tank cured by temporarily loosening my gas cap.
i found gal's olde 4 cylinder Hyundai Pony, disabled along highway. i fault found broken points. i bought new points
[ $5 ], set with a dime and she went on her way.
i fault found a dead battery in disabled auto on highway. gal's rear window heater was shorting out, sucking life out of battery. friend's car quit because coil died. consider sitting quietly, stare at the Dakota, or think about why it won't run. don't be surprised if you get an idea of why.
Have everthing but brake lights on 1992 dodge dakota what is wrong
Your brake light switch under the brake foot pedal may be defective and may need to be replaced.
If if you have a test light or multimeter you can check to see if voltage is coming from the switch once it's depressed.
You can also check the voltage at the brake light socket itself. No power = no lights.
Also depending on your vehicle you may have a fuse that controls the brake lights. Check your owner's manual if you have one.
lastly, there could be a bad ground at the taillights.

Wont Start/ Stay running
Oh man, I had the same problem with a Chev Baretta. Domestic autos of those years have so many redundant systems to prevent ruining the engine. In the case of Chev, low oil pressure would shut off the fuel pump. But a bad oil pressure sensor will do the same thing, as it's giving a false pressure reading. Best advice is to get your hands on a Chiltons/Haynes repair manual for your truck and follow the trouble shooting section. Best of luck. (After much frustration I did get that sensor replaced. Drove great until the fuel pump itself quit. I left that repair to someone else. I'm not into self-immolation.)

No brakes
have you replaced the brake fluid and bled the system under pressure, starting with rear wheel diagonally opposite the master cylinder in engine bay. and work way down to shorts. removing all bubbles from the lines. any air in system can travel. you need a brake bleeding kit with pressure lead that fits the cap size on the brake filler. also remember while doing this if you have manual gearbox and hydraulic clutch don't press down on the clutch pedal.

I have a dodge Dakota 92 LE v8 this problem has
Maybe I can help. I had a Chrysler Lebarron V8 that quit on me randomly and it turned out to be the coil resistor on the firewall. I started carrying a spare since it happened so often.

92 dodge dakota 5.2 4x4 won't stay running, hard
What fault codes do you have? to check for fault codes using the check engine light blink method do the following, turn the key to run and then off, then to run and then off, then to run and watch the check engine light, count the blinks, there will be a pause and then more blinks, that is the code(s) So lets say it blinks 2 times and then 5 times, that is code 25. Google the code or codes under the heading: "Dodge OBD1 fault codes"

Fuse box panel for 1992 dodge dakota
Not all fuses are installed, only those that run the systems that were installed by the factory, you will have empty fuse slots.. I know this because I had this same truck for 20 years.

1992 dodge dakota no spark
Did you do a fault code test to see if anything shows up that might explain the no spark? The ignition control module is part of the ECM in this truck you might have a defective circuit.
