  Q: How to Service a Dimmer Switch on Dodge Durango?

  A:

  Before servicing the turn signal switch, separate the negative battery cable to ensure the battery can't receive current. Turn the lever found on the left of the tilt steering column adjuster mechanism counterclockwise to remove it if your car includes it. Take off the upper steering column shroud and the lower fixed column shroud too. Shift the front flex piece to uncover the screws on the back and use a Snap On Z TWI60 bit or similar to get the screws loose. Relaxedly pull the multi-function switch clear of the steering column to reveal and unfasten the screw holding the instrument panel wire harness connector to its connector receptacle before you unplug the instrument panel wire harness. Take off the multi-function switch from the steering column. To begin installation, fasten the multi-function switch to the steering column and join the instrument panel wire harness to the connector on the switch. Secure the wire harness connector to the multi-function switch connector receptacle with 2 Nm (17 in. lbs.) and then use the same torque to secure the multi-function switch to the steering column with two screws. Begin with the lower fixed column shroud and then fit both upper and lower shrouds onto the steering column. Once you're done with steering, do the same with the tilt steering column lever, placing it and screwing it onto the left side of the steering column.

  Q: How to Install a Dimmer Switch on Dodge Durango?

  A:

  Before installing the combination switch, make sure the supplemental restraint system is disabled by removing the battery negative cable, leaving it off for two minutes to drain the capacitor. On the left side of the multi-function switch, slide it into the multi-function switch mounting housing so that the alignment pins are correctly engaged. With two screws, lock the switch into the bushings and tighten them at 2 Nm, adding the wire harness connector to the end of the switch. Set the lower shroud onto the steering column and connect a center screw down below, carefully adjusting it to 2 Nm (20 in. lbs.) tightness. Lay the upper shroud onto the lower shroud, pressing the gearshift lever gap hider in place, then snap them together and hold by hand to secure them. Secure the upper shroud to the lower shroud by installing and tightening two outboard screws, both to 2 Nm (20 in. lbs.). Fit the knob onto the actuator of the tilt adjuster and fix it with a screw turned to 2 Nm (20 in. lbs.) Before attaching the Steering Wheel, place the yellow rubber booted engagement dowel from the Clock Spring rotor between the two hub fins at the steering wheel's armature. Attach the steering wheel to the steering column and plug the steering wheel wire harness connectors back in, keeping the harness aligns properly. After that, put the driver Air Bag back into the steering wheel and reattach the negative battery cable.
