1993 Dodge Intrepid Questions & Answers
How do I test engine computer control for 1993 dodge intrepid 3.3L 40 pin to check diodes. like to see a chart or diagram.
This type of parasitic draw can be tricky to find.Hopefully this will help you. I am a master tech and the electronics specialist where I work.This is how i would approach this problem.
Turn the car and ignition off.put your meter on current setting 10amps DC..and .put it in SERIES with negative ground cable. polarity of the meter leads does not really matter like with measuring voltage.The meter should read about 200ma of current with the car shut off.,once the interior lights go out...before that it will show a couple amps..Then leave the meter hooked up and about 20 minutes later,the body control module puts the car in "sleep" mode and current should be around 2ma.. (.002amps) This is normal PCM current drain. If the current is higher than this,pull fuses out one at a time until the drain goes away.this is the problem damaged circuit. Most meters have an auto shutoff function for the display to save battery life. if the meter shuts off before the 20 minutes is up,,just turn it back on ,DO NOT disconnect the meter as the 20 minutes will have to start over.
Testing diodes is simple. with the meter on diode check,there should be a .7 volt drop one way and infinite the other.
A shorted diode will read 0 volt drop in both direction because it is shorted.
An open diode will read open in both directions.
How much would it cost to replace my freeze plugs?
depending on where you live you could pay on an average around 150, you cld save your money and do it your self. take a punch and hammer-knock out old ones- clean hole good-put a thin layer of rtv around edge of new plug and hammer it back in with a socket - dont hammer to hard- and stop when it gets flush with block. this way it would only cost you about two hours and cost of plugs

93 intrepid wont start
turn key to on position do not crank engine when gas gauge moves up and all lights up in dash you should her a grunt sound from back seat area to deterimne if fuel pump is working no grunt no fuel pump!!
Headlight Issue
Do you have power going to the head light? Check your local pull apart they should be the cheapest
Shakes while idiling
would love to help, but not enough information, no background details and "is there a question here?"
There is white smoke coming
If it doesn't smell like sweet then you most likely got a bad tank of gas. Just to be safe keep an eye on your engine temp. and coolant levels.
