#765 of 851 2002 Dodge Durango -Blower Motor Resistor by tietz99

Jul 27, 2010 (9:30 am)

The AC in my 2002 Dodge Durango SLT Plus only works at the highest speed. From the posts I see pretty clearly that it is the blower motor resistor that is most likely the cause. The posts say that there are two screws located just to the left of the blower fan. For the life of me I can not find these screws. Any diagrams out there to assist me in locating this. ...Seems like a pretty easy and cheap repair once I'm able to find where the heck the part is.

Sounds like you are towing sometimes? You might need a transmission oil cooler if you don't have one on the optional towing package.
 
Overheating can be a very tricky thing to diagnose. Since you are losing coolant, I'd have a pressure test done on the cooling system, and I'd extract a few spark plugs while the system is under pressure, just to check for the outside chance of a head gasket leak (you'll see coolant on the plug tips).

#770 of 851 cargo light and tire pressure light on after battery change by durangohemi06

Aug 07, 2010 (5:34 pm)

Hi,
 
I have searched this forum for this problem and see others have encountered he same issue. However I didnt see what the solution to this was.
 
I put in a new battery and the cargo lamp and tire pressure light came on. Called my Dodge dealer and they wanted to charge me what seemed like a very high cost to diagnose the problem. Obviously my cargo light and tire pressure is good since I've checked them both and found this problem to be common
 
Any help would be appreciated and my wife says thank you in advance.

#771 of 851 Sold our Durango. by rchii

Aug 07, 2010 (6:22 pm)

Hello,
 
  I would like to thank all of you for your assistance with our 2000 Durango during the time we had it. Without your expertise and real world experience with these vehicles, I would have had a hard time diagnosing ours. We have sold ours and have moved cross country to New Mexico (much different than Virginia). Now I have to start working on my Ram truck, it is getting terrible gas mileage here. I suspect it is the altitude change. We are now at about 5300 feet as apposed to the 1200 feet we were at in Virginia. Guess it is time to sell my factory Durango manual set and get the Ram set. Hey!, anybody need a full set of factory manuals for the 2000 Durango?
 
Again, thank you all for your help.
 
Sincerely!
Bob
