How to Operate the A/C Switch for Optimal Climate Control on Dodge Dakota?

Prior to servicing the A/C and heater control, first remove the negative battery cable and isolate it, allowing the air bag system capacitor time to discharge for about two minutes. Unhook the negative battery cable from the battery at the beginning. Take the central bezel out of the instrument panel and disconnect the A/C-heater supply cables next. Attach the center bezel to a workbench and then remove the screws that join it to the A/C-heater control. Last, detach the A/C-heater control from its slot in the center bezel.

How to Service the A/C Switch on Dodge Dakota?

Before working on the control assembly, air bag-equipped vehicles must have their air bag system disabled by disconnecting and isolating the battery negative cable and waiting for exactly two minutes. Disconnect the car's battery negative cable first and then take off the cluster bezel on the instrument panel. Then, undo the screws connecting the a/c heater control to the cluster bezel and pull out the control. Disconnect each wire harness at the points they are connected in the back of the heater-A/C control. Attach the wire harness connector to the back of the heater-A/C control and place the heater module in the cluster bezel. Screw in the fasteners and make sure they are tightened to 2.2 Nm (17 ±3 in. lbs.), finally, secure the cluster bezel in the instrument panel. After that, attach the battery negative cable back and do an A/C cool down using DRB III.
