Digital Compass readout freaking out!
From : ann babes at netzero net
Q: suddenly without warning denny exclaimed 9/12/2007 756 pm for those of you whove been around for a while you might remember that the check engine light on my 2001 dakota has been on for a couple of years complaining of a small evaporative emissions leak. replaced the gas cap to no avail and ignored it until now. per another recent post i had the truck in to replace a manifold gasket only to find that the exhaust manifold itself was warped. that was machined and replaced the 02 sensor also replaced and in the same area the mechanic found my leak - a 1 section of hose that had cracked through. must have been on the underside cause i inspected with my non-mechanic eyes that stuff a while back. so now for the first time in ages the light is off. and when i open the gas cap it goes phsssst! again. life is good. my truck is happy. im happy! how pathetic is that jmc does that mean youre gonna bake a bunch of chocolate chip cookies and mail them to everybody in the group vbg denny uh.... no. nutz! ;^ mike .

on sep 13 859 am tbone tbonenos...@nc.rr.com wrote while the belt should be replaced the squeaking is probably coming from the idler pulley or the tensioner pulley. since the belt has to be removed to replace either one i would check to see where the noise is coming from before replacing the belt so that you can also get the replacement parts and do it all at the same time. -- id like to replace the belt on my 01 ram v6 and was wondering if there are any problems or pitfalls i should know about before doing so. its squeaking a bit on cold starts and looks like it may be the original with 90k on it. thanks. thanks for the advice. ill check into the source of the noise as well. are either of these pulleys especially difficult/expensive to replace .

im glad you found the problem and it doesnt sound like you spent much to find the cause. i hope i didnt sound sarcastic that wasnt my intent though after reading my own post it reads that way. its difficult to include inflection in the written word. yes tom did point that out but the tech was very specific and felt it was a wiring short problem and pointed out places too look. i went with the testing on the injectors with tom and just did a quick visual test of the wiring harness and at the time i was not sure what i was looking for. it seems tom lawrence gave you about the same advice - find a problem in the wiring harness. oh well i guess advice is worth what you pay for it. .

on my way back from a long trip i noticed the digital compass / temperature readout was freaking out. display was randomly making unreadable displays. i turned it off and back on and still the same. turned it off again for awhile and back on again. stayed normal for awhile but then started again. was wondering if anyone else had the same problem and what was the fix or if anyone has any ideas of why it is doing it all of a sudden. i have a 96 1500 ram 5.2l extended cab 4x4 slt sport model with 145000 miles. thanks t do you have a mag mount cb antenna on it .
