Message:
I have a 1992 Dakota 4x4 with the 3.9L.
I've had the same pronlem as mentioned above with the click, click, clik start thing. The local dodge dealersip told me it was the "started contacts" in the solenoid. I decided to do the work myself, and remove the started/solenoid unit to work on it. My haynes manual said to disconnect the "steering shaft" to get at the started from above, and I can't get at the starter from below becasue of the front differential. But I can' get the steering shaft apart. I removed a pin and clip from the shaft and it slid a little in eache direction when tapped, but I can't get at the starter!
Anyone have any suggestions for disconnectiong the shaft ie which direction it slides?
Thanks,
Don

Suggestion: Take the right front tire off. Remove the rubber splash shield. If you are careful you can save the plastic clips. You can now access the starter wires. After you remove the starter bolts you can remove the starter through the space between the inner splash shield and the frame. You don't have to remove anything related to the steering column.

just want to make sure i didn't miss the point here. i can hold my key "on" and i get zero. if i shift a gear with key "on" it starts. went on for a couple of months. now today, no more start, even going thru the gears. i do hear a faint click sound when i depress clutch. i do have a new battery, which solved the problem for a few days. some help here? thanks
