I have a question? Can anyone help me with solve an electrical problem on my 1997 dodge dakota with the 3.9L engine. I replaced the headlight switch because it was defective & everything was working just fine for two weeks. Now for some reason, all of the lights are not fonctioning so what should i be looking at? Does any body have any proper wiring diagrams for this truck as well as values to use when checking the switches and relays?

 

A Haynes book for your truck should have diagram and instructions on testing the multi-function switch for the proper continuity. Test it with a digital volt meter. I would say start there. It's also possible your new headlight switch could be defective too. But I wouldn't think that to be very likely.

Don't forget your fuses. Check the connections to your switch, you may have not seeded it on there all the way.
