2001 DODGE RAM check engine light

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FIXED ORIFICE
TUBE
The fixed orifice tube can be checked for proper
operation using the following procedure. However,
the fixed orifice tube is only serviced as a part of the
liquid line unit. If the results of this test indicate
that the fixed orifice tube is obstructed or missing,
the entire liquid line unit must be replaced.
WARNING: THE LIQUID LINE BETWEEN THE CON-
DENSER OUTLET AND THE FIXED ORIFICE TUBE
CAN BECOME HOT ENOUGH TO BURN THE SKIN.
USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN PERFORMING THE
FOLLOWING TEST.
(1) Confirm that the refrigerant system is properly
charged. (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDI-
TIONING - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - A/C PER-
FORMANCE)
(2) Start the engine. Turn on the air conditioning
system and confirm that the compressor clutch is
engaged.
(3) Allow the air conditioning system to operate for
five minutes.
(4) Lightly and cautiously touch the liquid line
near the condenser outlet at the front of the engine
compartment. The liquid line should be hot to the
touch.
(5) Touch the liquid line near the evaporator inlet
at the rear of the engine compartment. The liquid
line should be cold to the touch.
(6) If there is a distinct temperature differential
between the two ends of the liquid line, the orifice
tube is in good condition. If there is little or no
detectable temperature differential between the two
ends of the liquid line, the orifice tube is obstructed
or missing and the liquid line must be replaced.
REMOVAL
The fixed orifice tube is located in the liquid line,
between the condenser and the evaporator coil. If the
fixed orifice tube is faulty or plugged, the liquid line
assembly must be replaced. (Refer to 24 - HEATING
& AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING/LIQUID LINE
- REMOVAL)
ACCUMULATOR
DESCRIPTION
The accumulator is mounted in the engine com-
partment between the a/c evaporator outlet tube and
the compressor inlet.
OPERATION
Refrigerant enters the accumulator canister as a
low pressure vapor through the inlet tube. Any liq-
uid, oil-laden refrigerant falls to the bottom of the
canister, which acts as a separator. A desiccant bag is
mounted inside the accumulator canister to absorb
any moisture which may have entered and become
trapped within the refrigerant system (Fig. 13).
REMOVAL
WARNING: REVIEW THE WARNINGS AND CAU-
TIONS IN THE FRONT OF THIS SECTION BEFORE
PERFORMING THE FOLLOWING OPERATION.
(Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/
PLUMBING - WARNING) (Refer to 24 - HEATING &
AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING - CAUTION)
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Recover the refrigerant from the refrigerant
system. (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDI-
TIONING/PLUMBING - STANDARD PROCEDURE -
REFRIGERANT RECOVERY)
(3) Remove the a/c low pressure switch from the
accumulator. (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CON-
DITIONING/CONTROLS/A/C LOW PRESSURE
SWITCH - REMOVAL)
(4) Loosen the screw that secures the accumulator
retaining band to the support bracket on the dash
panel (Fig. 20).
(5) Disconnect the suction line refrigerant line fit-
ting from the accumulator outlet. (Refer to 24 -
HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE - A/C LINE COUPLERS)
Install plugs in, or tape over all of the opened refrig-
erant line fittings.
(6) Disconnect the accumulator inlet refrigerant
line fitting from the evaporator outlet. (Refer to 24 -

INSPECTION - BATTERY
When battery is easily accessible, check the test
indicator (green dot), terminal tightness and felt
(grease) washer on battery posts. Recharge battery as
required to assure that the green dot is visible.
When battery is not easily accessible check battery
condition with a voltmeter at the jump start loca-
tions, or check the voltmeter on the instrument panel
(Fig. 11) or (Fig. 12). The reading should be at least
12.4 volts. Recharge battery as required.
NOTE: Refer to service information for proper bat-
tery charging rates and times.
INSPECTION - WIRING
The assembly plant has shipped all vehicles with
the interior lights and most electronic memories non-
functional by way of an Ignition Off Draw (IOD) fuse
removed. The purpose is to reduce the possibility of
battery run-down during shipping and storage.
Vehicles stored after prep should have the IOD
fuse that activates the accessories pulled to prevent
battery drain.
NOTE: Ensure that the IOD fuse is removed to pre-
vent battery drain and possible damage. Vehicles
stored for extended periods after prep should be
washed frequently, to prevent environmental dam-age, and reinspected for storage-related problems
before delivery.
(1) Install the IOD fuse as equipped. (ON vehicles
being delivered, remember to reset radio, clock, com-
pass, etc., as required.)
(2) Check routing and connections of all underhood
wiring-reroute and connect as required.
(3) Make sure the starter, generator and air condi-
tioning clutch wiring are correctly installed, routed,
and in the clips where provided.
(4) For predelivery storage, always pull the IOD
fuse that activates accessories.

PRE DELIVERY STORAGE
DESCRIPTION
Pre Delivery Storage information is provided to
recommend practices to use when storing new vehi-
cles prior to delivery to the customer.
If you have prepared a vehicle that will not be
immediately delivered to the customer, store the
vehicle according to guidelines outlined in (Refer to
30 - NEW VEHICLE PREP/PREDELIVERY STOR-
AGE - STANDARD PROCEDURE) to prevent unnec-
essary wear and tear on the vehicles electrical
systems, paint and finish and damage due to pilfer-
age and vandalism.

BR/BENEW VEHICLE PREPARATION 30 - 19
ROAD TEST (Continued)

STANDARD PROCEDURE - PRE DELIVERY
STORAGE
(1) If possible, store vehicles indoors, in clean, dry
places. If vehicles must be stored outdoors:
²Try to avoid storage locations that are near any
obvious sources of industrial or environmental con-
tamination (e.g., trees, factories, steam or vapor
vents, railroad tracks, etc.)
²Maintain tight security to help prevent pilferage
and vandalism, and inspect each vehicle regularly to
check for such damage
²If the vehicle must be parked on an incline, park
it with the front end higher than the rear; this will
prevent ªhydrostatic lockº caused by fuel draining
into the engine
²Rinse the vehicle at least once a week. Snow
should be washed away more often, since it can trap
harmful contaminants. Dry all horizontal surfaces
(2) The IOD fuse should be removed in order to
prevent battery drain and possible damage.
(3) Check the vehicle's coolant and anti-freeze pro-
tection.
(4) Check the vehicle's battery at least once a
month for a proper charge (at least 12.4 volts).
Charge the battery if necessary. This will help pre-
vent freezing and deterioration.
(5) Check the vehicle's tires and inflate them to
their maximum recommended levels. Move the vehi-
cles periodically to avoid ªflatspottingº the tires.
(6) Do not engage the parking brake; keep it in the
OFF position.
(7) Keep all windows closed, all doors locked, and
all trim covers intact and in place.
(8) Do not use chalks, crayons or any marker con-
taining abrasives on painted, plated or glass sur-
faces.
(9) Always use seat covers when moving a vehicle.
