Chosen Solution

I have removed the cowl and found the hole it is supposed to be located in, but I feel nothing inside the hole. I called the dealership and they told me I should see it again I see nothing inside the hole I feel nothing inside the hole. So please help me figure out the location of the part number RU479 I am trying to install in my Dakota sport.

Hi, Has the blower motor ever worked? If not, the resistor may have been removed and the harness connector pushed back in out of the way, due to some other problem. Just a thought. Here’s a link to the relevant section from the 2000 Dakota Sport service repair manual Scroll down on the page in the viewing box to find p.24-3 and p.24-25/26 to view the location of the blower resistor, and the necessary pre-requisite steps to remove and replace the resistor. Here are some of the pages if you have problems.
