#156 of 195 Re: R134A - where to check pressure & add ?? [tommy97] by bpeebles Feb 19, 2009 (6:35 pm)
Replying to: tommy97 (Feb 18, 2009 6:35 am) To determine which is the HIGH or LOW pressure side of the system... just look at the plumbing.   The HIGH pressure side goes from the AC pump, to the condenser. (looks like radiator in front of vechicle) and into reciever/drier (looks like coke can) then into firewall   The LOW pressure side comes from firewall, and into the AC pump.   While charging, you should to have guages installed and take constant readings to determine operation and charge-level.   This website has a quick overview.   If you do not understand how AC system works... perhaps you should not be messen with it.

The same thing happen to me with myh 1993 Dodge Dakota truck. It turned out to be blower motor resister, costing $12.oo, plus half hour labor.

Replying to: moretin (Feb 28, 2009 8:52 am) I believe he said the blower would not work on any speed. Usually when the resistor goes out the fan will still run on high. If the fan will not run on any speed and the fuse is good I would check the fan switch first.

Replying to: terrys2 (Feb 28, 2009 9:22 am) Terry, that's true unless the resistor got too hot and melted the plastic around the electrical connector body. Sometimes the melted plastic fills the terminal cavity in the connector. After it cools and the plastic has hardened, there is no longer a connection.   Regards, Dusty Replies to this message: terrys2 (Mar 04, 2009 8:52 pm)

Replying to: dustyk (Mar 04, 2009 6:49 pm) Yes, I agree. And if that is the case you probably can't get the connector off of the resistor and you will have to buy a new connector with wires and splice it in.

#163 of 195 2001 Dakota noise problem in cold weather. by mogtel Mar 05, 2009 (9:20 am)
During the last cold snap, (15 degrees and below), at 1800 rpm and about 60 mph, I got an engine noise that sounded like a ringing or whizzing sound. My first thought was that it could be a bearing in the A/C compressor or idler pulley, or anternator. Can't hear it sitting still or revving the engine. I had "Chassis Ear" the I used to no avail. I've talked with other owners who have the same noise who indicate that the noise goes away in warmer weather. Any ideas out there. Thanks in advance.

Replying to: mogtel (Mar 05, 2009 9:20 am) I have had occasion when my POWER STEERING PUMP would make a gear-meshing sound in colder weather. It turnd out that the fluid-level was a tad low and the pump would occasionaly suck air and make the noise.   Not sure if this is what you are hearing or not...
