I think they were ECMs on your vintage, but my son had a '91 and I believe the computer is behind the foot kick panel on the passenger side. This would be the plastic panel that covers the area just below the dash on the right side.

Check for something loose underneath the floor area that might have been disturbed when the transmission was removed. A lot of times these types of problems are caused by not having everything tight or in the correct position.

Help - No cup holders by sundevil99
Jun 10, 2005 (9:43 am)
I've posted this in a couple of different Dakota forums.
 
I just purchased a used '99 Dakota, RC, 5spd Manual, 4x4. It doesn't have a single cup holder in the entire cab.
I would like to have something on the floor, but there's not much room around the sticks for the transmission and 4WD.
Any suggestions?
  
Thanks!

I am going to replace that same sensor on a family Dakota soon,it is a '99 4WD sport and I just got the part from Tenefly.The part # they sent was 05013660AA and I cannot find a pic of the part anywhere but the part I got has a small square shank coming out of the bottom that looks like it would go in a speedometer drive and I am wondering if it is the correct part.My understanding is that the transmission also has a speed sensor on it and I am worried that the part they sent was the wrong one.
The vehicle in question is hard to get standing still long enough to work on it and when I go under there I want the right part in my hand.
I posed this question to Dwane at Tenefly and he could not answer me or at least did not give me an authoritive answer so I am asking anyone that knows if they can remember what their part looked like before it was installed.
I have a '95 1500 SLT 4WD and have the FSM for it but comparing what I have and speculating is not good enough,I am sure his is different.Mine has a tone wheel on the ring gear but his may not.My pickup sure looks like the one they sent me on the outside but that does not mean a whole lot either.If anyone can help me I would appreciate a reply................Dwayne says to give him the part number off of the old one...............NS.............I will know by that time if it is the right one or not.....LOL Ron G

I was curious if you had any luck in figuring out your electrical problem with your Dodge Dakota? I just had a very similar thing happen to my 01 Dakota. I was out of town for a week and when I returned, the truck was completely dead. I jump started it. It took a while to charge, but finally started. Now everything works besides I have no headlights, parking lights, and the electric door locks do not work. I found that if I turn the headlights to high beam, they come on but flicker a lot. The brake lights also work fine. I also noticed that the interior lamps flicker a lot and the key buzzer sounds very strange.
 
I have heard a lot of problems contributed to the battery and will probably change that, but was hoping to hear from you on what you found.
 
thanks

Cop holders are a big deal with you and you didn't notice there were none when you bought this? Go down to your local auto parts store, Wally mart, etc. and see what kind of accessories there are.

On 1999 models if you have the split bench seat the cup holders are located
underneath the center portion. Just pull on the plastic piece located on the front of the center portion and they should fold out. At least that is the way it was set up on the vehicles with auto trans.

Bruce or Dusty: Help! by bookitty
Jun 11, 2005 (5:05 pm)
Bruce and or Dusty, my check engine light went on again tonight. Last time it was a $106.00 gas cap. (2000 Quad, 4.7). This code read: "P0155." Looked it up and this is what was listed:
  
" 7C P0155 O2 SENSOR 2/1 HEATER CKT Oxygen sensor 2/1 heater element malfunction."
  
Now as far as computer controlled gasoline internal combustion engines are concerned, I know how to install and gap points, check coils and replace spark plugs. On diesel engines, I can set the rack (Detroit), convert John Deere engines by installing aneroid technology, and fully understand and have a wonderful relationship with Cummins (especially "B" series). But, I have never heated an Oxygen sensor. What am I facing? Can I clear this code without resorting to battery disconnection? Appreciate your help.

O2 Sensor by bcarter3
Jun 11, 2005 (11:40 pm)
Norm, Are you back up north for the summer? If you are you will be missing the "best" part of Southern Florida. Hurricanes, humidity, heat and mosquitos!!!
 
  If you can change a spark plug you can change an O2 Sensor. The power for the O2 Sensor 2/1 comes from the Engine Computer. A heater circuit malfunction usually indicates a failure in the Sensor itself. My Dak is an '01 so I'm not positive that your '00 is the same but the 2/1 Sensor should be located on the right side between the exhaust manifold and the "mini" converter. I got one from the Dealer in February for $84.43 including tax. I used a scan tool to clear my code but I think it will also clear if you disconnect the battery.
 
                                   Hope the oysters are more friendly there, Dick
 
                                  I haven't seen an Amber Fire for a couple of years.
