#58 of 97 Engine lite on. by chineseguy Sep 27, 2008 (6:02 pm)
Hi folkes, need help here, I had my 05 dakota couple month ago, 4.7 V8 auto,qcab,186K, run great, today first time took it to wash, only body and under body, no engine wash. Went home park it, couple hours later start the truck the engine lite on, but the truck run normal, no funny thing happened, try to get the code with on-off-on-off-on, no code shown up, but the engine still on, any idea. Thanks.

Before doing anything else I would try to reset the computer by disconnecting the battery and see if that shuts off the engine light.

Thanks, I will do that. Just other question, am I doing the right way to get the code from the 05 model, on-off-on-off-on, if it is, why no code show up, and should I beware some thing when I wash the truck next time to avoid the engine lite come on again. Thanks.
#61 of 97 OBD II-CAN Scanner. by chineseguy Oct 07, 2008 (2:54 pm)
Hi there, just a general question, I just brought a OBD II-CAN scanner for my 05 dakota, I just wonder can I hook up the scanner while I am driving, so I can monitor the truck, or if I do that, I will fired all the computer board in the truck. Thanks.
#62 of 97 Check Engine light by treedav Oct 09, 2008 (11:23 am)
I have a 2005 Dodge Dakota with a 3.7 6cylinder engine with 38,000 miles on it.   About 14 months ago I got the same code p0302 saying miss fire on cylinder #2 the dealer inspected and found nothing and cleared the code. This Sunday the check egine light came on again and I had the codes scanned again I got P0302 code,so with 38,000 mile I decided to change the spark plugs with the original type,after I was finished the codes went away and the next day the check engine light came back on with the same P0302 cose miss fire on # 2 cyclinder. The performance is fine,but I am at my witts end on what the problem might be.   I would appreciate any insight on this question.   Thanks, Dave M.

I wonder if your problem might not be with the Coil on plug (COP) for cylinder # 2. Might be worthwhile to switch the COP with another one and see if that makes a difference.

Replying to: treedav (Oct 09, 2008 11:23 am) Hi I have a 2000 dakota with the same problem..except P0306, our mechanic swapped the coil packs on a tune up and it didn't matter the light came back on. We think it is a bad injector as it seems to happen to us when we are lower on fuel. For now we put in some fuel injector cleaner, add some gas, and the light goes off.

Not sure if this is the correct thread for my 03 Ram with a hemi. I recently had my fuel pump replaced and I now have this DTC, P0440 Evap Sys Perf. What should I be looking for. The truck is out of warranty and hopefully I can find a quick fix. Thanks Replies to this message: kcram (Dec 12, 2008 4:50 pm)
