Subject: removed bumper - now it won't start?
IP: Logged

Message:
I am in the middle of replacing my bumper and drivers side headlamp assembly on my 2004 dakota. I tried to crank it up and I can't turn the key. The only thing I have done is remove the headlight and bumper... The only thing that I can think of is that there is some sort of trigger that won't let it start without a bumper or headlight... but I have no idea... Any advice?

1. Compare the Netmeeting directory with the %systemroot%\ServicePackFiles\i386\ directory and delete the duplicate files in the %systemroot%\ServicePackFiles\i386\ directory.
2. Do this same with the %systemroot%\system32\dllcache\ directory.
3. Now there should't be any backup Netmeeting files for the Windows File Protection feature to restore from.
4. Now do Start -> Run -> %systemroot%\system32\rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection NetMtg.Remove 132 msnetmtg.inf and Netmeeting is gone.

Was the steering wheel turned when you initially parked the truck/ Even just a bit? The reduction in weight (bumper removed) would allow the front end to rise and possibly put a slight bind on the steering lock. Try to turn the wheel one way or the other then attempt to turn the key while holding pressure on the wheel in that direction.
