another problem, wtf
it seems like the daks i live with have conspired to **** me off. My buddy's 02 4.7just had to have the central timer module replaced after hours of wasting time trying to figure out the problem. My 88 has no brakes for some reason and I dont feel like fooling around with it. And now, my 2001 3.9 has some kind of A/C, Heater issue. I was using the A/C and it was working fine, turned the truck off and went into the store. when I came back and started it up, there was no air comming out. tried fooling around with the switches, no hot or cold air will come out. I can hear the A/C compressor kicking on/off but nothing happens on any setting. also, at night it looks like about half the lights behind the panel with the a/c ***** and stuff are not on when they would normally be illuminated green. is there a fuse or something in particular anyone knows about that might cause this, i seriously dont have time for problems right now or i would try troubleshooting myself. Thanks for any help.

Sounds like the blower motor resistor may be defective. Has it ever been replaced? It costs about $15 or $20 at the dealer and is easy to replace. When they go bad there is no air from the vents. Use the Dodge Dealer part only. Dodge recently redesigned the resistor packs with better and more durable parts and you can only buy the new ones at the dealer. Blower resistor is a pretty common problem on Dakota's.
As for the lights not working, it sounds like the bulbs might have burned out. Did all this happen at the same time or were the lights on the AC panel out before the AC quit? If so it may be something else besides the resistor and bulbs, maybe the control head for the climate controls is bad.
