#35 of 44 2001 Dakota R/T Mystery Switch by Falksey22 Jan 14, 2009 (3:27 am)
#36 of 44 2001 Dakota R/T Mystery Switch by Falksey22 Jan 14, 2009 (3:27 am)
I just got a 2001 Dakota R/T Club with the 5.9 V8, and there is a switch located by the cup holders that I can't seem to figure out what does, and I didn't find it in the owners manual. I saw it in the pictures of another R/T online and I'm wondering if anyone knows what its for?

Replying to: Falksey22 (Jan 14, 2009 3:27 am) "By the cup holders."   Well, the 2001s had a different instrument panel and my memory is not recalling anything. When you operate the switch, what happens?   I can think of two possibilities: it may either be the switch for the fog lamps, or for the heated mirrors.   I don't know.   Dusty

Replying to: Falksey22 (Jan 14, 2009 3:27 am) I currently have a 2000 R/T... the switch your asking about (in my case) is an electric fan to help cool the engine. Have somebody turn the truck on with the hood opened and have the person flip the switch. Take a look in the engine bay just to confirm. If it's not that, then I have no idea. I wondered myself what it was for the first few weeks till I was messing around with all the switches and operations.

Replying to: Falksey22 (Jan 14, 2009 3:27 am) I also have a switch by the cup holders mine is a after market remote start switch. You could see if this is possible.

#42 of 44 Plug holes in floor of Cab by tom4297 Jun 03, 2009 (7:03 am)
For some reason, a previous owner has removed the welded covers in the floor of my cab, 1995 Dodge Dak. The holes (4) are located on both sides of the cab about center of the floor.   Well, it rains, and now I need to find someway of plugging up the holes to prevent water from splashing in. Any Ideas anyone?

Hi all, Just bought my daughter a 2001 dakota r/t with a 5.9 v8. So far we have had 2 issues that I was able to find the answers to on this forum - so thanks!!!   But am just wondering if anyone out there can give me some info on this truck in the way of how to maintain it, and any possible issues to be looking for.   Again I'm glad I found this forum I'm sure I'll be referring to it over and over as issues come up.
#44 of 44 new old truck by sailavash Oct 22, 2009 (7:51 am)
Just picked up an 88 dakota 4x4 long bed with 176,000 miles on it. Anyone have any idea of what problems that I may be faced with?   Mod's soon to be added dump hoist kit, front and rear receivers, quick mount winch, pivoting truck crane, 2 battery kit, a belly side generator and air compressor. It will be a work truck.
