#108 of 129 2002 Dodge Dakota Climate Control by ironcity1 Jul 10, 2008 (4:43 pm)
Today i went to use the A/C and it would only kick on when the fan was on High. Did some checking and the fan does not work at all only on the High setting. Do i need to replace the whole climate control unit or not to fix this. Replies to this message: dakota968 (Jul 11, 2008 10:23 am) ironcity1 (Jul 12, 2008 10:11 am)

Your problem is that the variable resistor needs to be replaced. It is behind the glove box and costs around $20 from the dealer. It is an easy do it yourself job. You might want to do a search on this forum as this has come up very frequently in the past.

Replying to: ironcity1 (Jul 10, 2008 4:43 pm) The resistor is the most likely (and cheapest/easiest) cause. By your user name I'm assuming you're in Pittsburgh (I am as well). I picked up a new resistor at West Liberty Dodge for around $13. It's a newer and better designed unit and takes about 5 minutes to replace. It's located under the glove box. 2 screws, 5 minutes, and $13 bucks. It's worth a shot. Replies to this message: ironcity1 (Jul 12, 2008 10:11 am)

Replying to: dakota968 (Jul 11, 2008 10:23 am) Thanks for all your help. I grew up there moved away in 1985. Live in MD now. Went to dealer on the way home from work pick up the part for $21.00 and works great now. Thanks again for all your help.
#112 of 129 climate control (1993 Dodge Dakota V6-3.9L) by moretin Jul 23, 2008 (11:02 am)
First time user. When the heater or A/C is on and blowing, it only comes through at the windshield, no matter what button I push. I was able to go under the dash and find a box that when I put my hand inside and pushed on a door to open, then the air come through the cab. When I released the door it shut and the air went back to the windshield. Thanks for any help. Replies to this message: kcram (Jul 23, 2008 7:14 pm) moretin (Jul 24, 2008 9:36 pm)

Replying to: moretin (Jul 23, 2008 11:02 am) That is the blend door, and yours is malfunctioning. Dodge dealers are used to this repair.   kcram - Pickups Host Replies to this message: moretin (Jul 24, 2008 9:36 pm)

Replying to: kcram (Jul 23, 2008 7:14 pm) Thanks for the info. I went there before I posted this message and he told me that the heater box needed to replace. I couldn't find anything about a heater box so I tried Edmunds. Thanks again.
#115 of 129 A/C compresser switch. by cpklutz Aug 27, 2008 (2:28 pm)
How difficult is the switch on the compresser to replace? I have done everything else I can think of on my '92 4x4 3.9l, but cannot get the unit to run consistently. Everything includes: Retrofit (r134),low pressure switch, O rings, and curcuit breaker. Replies to this message: dleahy (Aug 29, 2008 4:59 pm) cpklutz (Aug 30, 2008 1:57 pm)

Replying to: cpklutz (Aug 27, 2008 2:28 pm) Try replacing the AC clutch relay located in your fuse panel on the driver's side fender well on top. Spent hundreds with lame dealers and fixed my air for about $10 with a plug in part. Good luck!! Replies to this message: cpklutz (Aug 30, 2008 1:57 pm)

Replying to: ejwells (Jul 03, 2008 1:02 pm) My A/C problem turned out to be the clutch relay in the fuse box. $10 and presto. Full time air. Hope this helps!
