#50 of 55 '95 Dakota won't start by rapunze1 Apr 12, 2008 (10:19 pm)
Disclaimer: I don't speak "truck" or "mechanic".   My truck won't start. When I turn the key the dash lights come up, but the starter isn't getting the message. It's similar to when the clutch isn't all the way to the floor so there's no reaction - but the clutch is definitely down.   My brother in law thought it was a sensor on the clutch, and so by-passed the sensor - rewired it, put an in-line fuses, and it started right up. For a few days. Now it's doing the same thing again. The wire & fuse he put in are fine.   I can't afford to pay a mechanic $80 a hour to try to track down what's wrong. Has anyone here had a similar problem and can maybe set me on the right track?

Have a problem starting a 2006 Dakota - dealer has changed the level sending unit and cluster but still a problem - turns over just won't start.
#52 of 55 92 dodge dakota by chanteupgrades Jun 19, 2008 (11:22 am)
92 Dodge Dakota will not start. I replaced the computer and the fuel pump. I also had the sparkplugs and fuses looked at, but still nothing. Three mechanics have looked at it and no one has been able to figure out what's wrong. It's something electrical but what.

#54 of 55 Not running smoothly by will37 Jul 13, 2008 (6:22 pm)
I have a 2000 3.9 v6 Dodge Dakota after the radiator hose blew the truck would not start or stay running unless you have the pedal floored. Once you put it in gear the vehicle will die. Does anyone have any ideas about this?
#55 of 55 Re: 1994 Dodge Dakota No Hot lead to coil & no spark [winger12] by damguys Aug 05, 2008 (8:26 am)
Replying to: winger12 (Jan 04, 2008 9:29 am) I am having the same problem with my vehicle. Did you get it fixed? What did you do? I also have an indication on the instrument panel "BUD" I don't know what that is. No spark and no fuel pump. I can jump the fuel pump relay and force it to run but still no spark. Any help would be appreciated. Damguys
