If every Dodge Dakota owner reported this problem you'd need another computer to store the complaints. If you continue to use your heater with only one fan speed, it is likely to burn/melt your heater resistor wiring harness($103 plus tax) There are likely none left in your local scrap yards due to this common Dodge problem. The heater resistor is poorly made. Obviously this circuit is not adequately fuse protected. Dodge should recall all these for a fire hazard recall. Resistor harness burns and melts. Wires eventually burn off. Hey Dodge wake up. Dodge dealerships are well aware of this common problem, but do nothing but take your money for the parts required to fix it. No wonder they call it ram tough...........they are ramming you up the A...................
