Default AC Relay

I really need to know where the ac relay is located on a 2004 Dodge Dakota, if this has already been answered I apologize but am new to this site and done searching before posting this and couldn't find it. If at all possible I need photos or clear instructions on where it is exactly located, for I have been all over my truck and can't seem to find it no where. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated..

Under your hood in the engine bay the black box next to the battery lid should have a diagram in it

Default Ac ReLAY

Ok found relay its not bad it still works, so anyone know where I can go from here, cooling fan still not working. Someone ask me if it was a clutch driven fan or electric, Pretty sure its electric, ANY help would be trememdously appreciated, as I have been borrowing a car and the owner is wanting it back and I hate to keep using it.

Next would be check your resistor pack they ususly burn up kind of normal just hope the wires are not melted.

Get the manual on the first page of the forum and it will tell you I have an older Dakota its different but your pack is in the cab under the dash on the passenger side.

Found this it will help http://www.dakota-durango.com/forum/...ad.php?t=65326

I guess not really sure its just the fan in behind radiator, It has a connecting plug that i unplugged to check and plugged back up but still will not come on, that is where I know I have to be having my overheating problems from, or at least that is where I think it is
