In this instance, the parking lamps, instrument panel, and courtesy lamps flicker on and off. Then I got to driving down the road an noticed that my speedometer would only work over 35mph. I have looked at several forums for answers, haven't found any answers that provide enough information. Its a thirty dollar wiring harness that replaces the right side harness behind the instrument cluster. First the dashboard lights go out. I got no clue, any ideas? The contact has to play with the remote to get the light to turn off.
. The problem I'm having is the security light will come on, then the chime starts, then the service 4wd will come on and the electronic 4 wheel drive will not work. Someone told me it might be the ignition starter switch, replaced it. Thanks Just a guess but it sounds like the instrument cluster is getting its ground through the parking brake light bulb. The failure mileage was 30,000 and current mileage was 33,000. The manufacturer was contacted and the vehicle failure was pending an investigation.
Information in this manual is divided into groups. I have determined the problem is neither the switch, relay, or lights. The vehicle was not repaired. The symptoms are identical to those posting the central timer module defect. We offer a wide range of Dodge Instrument Clusters of all the best brands in the industry at an affordable rate that fits the Price Range you are looking for. Can someone give me some help!!!!! It was running great and just died driving down the road.
Please comment if it helped you and share your story. On a recent trip of 2400 miles the oil gauge was passed the middle of the gauge which near the h when this started happening the dash lights went out and I had to stop and let the motor completely cool down before the lights would work again in the dash. I've had it for 6 years. The contact also stated that when the security warning light is flashing, they are unable to start the vehicle. The headlights only seem to participate in the flashing part of the time. These groups contain general information, diagnosis, testing, adjustments, removal, installation, disassembly, and assembly procedures for the systems and components. Oil, Temp, Fuel, Tach, Speedometer all went to 0.
This is a Caravan thing, but worth checking. The contact stated that all of the gauges on the instrument panel stopped working when the failures occurred. I thought man thats weird. If you know your Year Make Model, put it in the selector so that we can guide you to a product that fits your vehicle. Which is fine if you never drive after dark. If someone could help me out here please do because I am baffled!! Please try all of the Above, I feel Confedint that athis is where your Problem Is. We have over lots of customer reviews on Dodge Instrument Cluster to help you find exactly what you need.
November 2, 2006 I was picking up my husband from the doctors office and my seat belt would not release and again I had to cut the seat belt, so I could get out. On the way home from michigan the accelorator pedel fell off in the mountains in georgia and I had to put the plastic holders on very carefully so I could get to the next town and there a auto parts store employee put a c clamp on the holder to secure the pedal enough for me to make it home. The following document is a Service Manual of Dodge Dakota 2000 including the wiring diagrams. The vehicle has no power steering or brakes when the failure occurs. Remove the cluster and check the connector pins to see if they're loose. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where they advised the contact that the sensor timer module needed to be replaced. When starting the truck, if you have the parking brake on, all the guages work.
Swapping it is easy and you can get a remanufactured one. Search for the trusted brands you prefer, compare prices when you can, and make sure you get the part you need to keep your Dodge Dakota humming! The headlamp switch is an input to the instrument cluster. It was running great and just died driving down the road. At first the gauges freeze, then they drop down to nothing. The contact then noticed smoke coming from the dashboard area which then ignited into a fire. Seek professional help if this seems too tricky for you.
Any help would be appreciated. Truck will turn over, no bus message blinks a few times and then constant. Or, examine the part in person at your nearest Advance Auto Parts location. All good none grounding out. All the gauges are not working, but flashers, radio starter all work. All the gauges run through it, along with the ignition and fuel.
