Where to find TSBs?
From : jmc
Q: at some point some years ago i printed a bunch of tsbs for my truck 2001 dak from recall-warnings.com. they dont seem to do tsbs any more and dont even seem to have any history... go to dodge and theres only one recall. sooo... does anyone know of a good place to look up tsbs that include more than just the summary and dont cost anything thanks! jmc .

over the dash and disconnect all the connectors from the junction block and remove it. of course disconnect the battery/batteries first and let the truck sit for several minutes to let the capacitators in the airbag module bleed off. i still vote for short in wiring myself but thats just a percentage call... . 222 337513 ktumi.124774$nv3.88557@pd7urf2no thanks for the info tom! the saga continues ... after removing the center seat i finally got at the seat belt control module and disconnected it. checked for voltage again at fuse 16 with the ignition off. voltage still present at this fuse with the ignition key off. fuse 15 that has a common feed according to the service manual is fine... no voltage present. checked all other fuses with the same feed in the junction block 6 8 10 and 15 and they are all at 0 volts with the ignition turned off as they should be. looks like it is a junction block problem. i notice the service manual states that if this occurs the entire junction block has to be replaced ! ! can only imagine how much fun its going to be to replace the junction block after removing seats to get at the seat belt control module. anyone ever changed out the junction block on a 99 sport quad ctd fred problem definitely is the seat belt control module. pulling the fuse that feeds the sbcm solved the problem i was having with high iod and killing both batteries in about a week. okay my mistake. in later years all these functions were incorporated into the ctm. however in 99 and probably earlier years as well there is indeed a separate sbcm that handles these functions seat belt switches solenoids door ajar switches etc. have you disconnected the sbcm at the wiring harness again to verify that the sbcm is really at fault and not the wiring its located underneath the front seat center console. anyone ever changed one of these modules any ideas on how much they are looks to be a little over $100 - i saw one quoted for $118. .
