I finally fixed the " - - " issue with the temperature reading, and learned why it was occurring in the first place. This was certainly an interesting process, and I learned a ton...maybe more than I wanted to :-) Thanks for watching, and let me know if you have any questions!

Great video man, I've got a 2001 SLT quad cab and this made the install super easy.
Hey man! Good to hear from you, I found mine on ebay. Most of them are pricey, but every now and then you will find a good deal.
Got to love KZread sometimes, I wondered what happened to ya. Ya my daughter was very happy with the job. She has been showing it off and riding it all over, not an expert by any means but it didn't turn out too bad for weekend duffer. Thanx for looking.
Hey good to see a video from you, if you get a chance take a look at the finished product on my daughters Honda Metro.
Howdy! I am headed over to your channel now to catch up. I am mad at KZread, I haven't gotten any emails stating you had new videos, I am looking forward to seeing the work done. I know your daughter must be on cloud 9!
I also have the - - reading for my temp and was really getting scared that the fix was going to be something horrible and complicated, but thankfully my truck is a 2002 and my console is from a 2002 so now I know that all I need is the temp sensor. It's a shame that you got stuck with the older overhead because it just doesn't seem as nice. Now i'm off to get a new sensor!
Great question, and great minds think alike! I was thinking the same thing, the 1st overhead was from an 02, so why couldn't I get an 02 HVAC control and see if that worked? The only thing I can think of, the 02 HVAC control may need to be "calibrated" to our 01 PCM, but I have found a couple of 02 HVAC units for $15 bucks at local junk yards, and for $15 bucks it is worth a shot. If you get yours done, let me know if it works, and I will do the same man!
i have a 2000 ram 1500 just wondering if you know how to set the other features on the overhead trip, console becausemine recently was reset because the compass was not working and I went from getting 12 miles per gallon to 10 miles per gallon according to what the overhead console says
Was there something special you had to do to get the Homelink to work once you replaced the console?
How do you set the time on the overhead display and radio? I just bought a 2003 ram with the same setup but no owners manual. I can't for the life of me figure out how to set the time on either one.
Great video, it may be too long by now but if you can help me would be nice. I have the same problem, and reading in some jeep forums they say I may have a shortcut somewhere in the PCI Bus connection (violet/yellow wire). Did you ever got to fix the problem of the temperature dashes?
Do you still have the 2002 overhead console by chance?
How do you get copies of those factory service manuals?
Will this work on a 99 or does it have different colors
Do you happen to know the Dodge Part Number for the trip computer module that you ended up using in your 01 Dakota?
$15 not bad. but trying to find a overhead trip computer for a Dodge Dakota is like trying to find a needle in a hay stack at my local junk yards. eBay has a couple w/ bracket but cheapest one is $130 plus i need a wiring harness and a rear view mirror, luckily most Chrysler cars have the same rear view mirror and HVAC units and maybe wiring harness and i could get them for ''free''........ LOL. I have to fix all of my weather strips on my Dakota now that its summer so i think later on maybe.
nice video like always, thank you. one question what if i find a counsel like the the first one you have and replace the climate control also will i have the same issue like you?? 01 4.7l dodge dakota sport 4X2
ok so sell me the olther console ,bracket and wiring harness! it will work in my 2003 dakota!
Do you want to sell your 2002 console?
