Fuel reset switch 1997 Dodge Intrepid?

The 1997 Dodge Intrepid doesn't have a fuel reset switch in the way some vehicles have a fuel pump reset switch to address a specific electrical issue. There's no single button or switch to "reset" the fuel system.

If you're experiencing fuel-related problems (like the car not starting, running poorly, or stalling), the issue is likely more complex and requires troubleshooting. Possibilities include:

* Fuel pump problems: A failing fuel pump, clogged fuel filter, or low fuel pressure are common causes.

* Electrical issues: Problems with the fuel pump relay, fuel injector wiring, or other components in the fuel delivery system.

* Computer issues: A problem with the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) could affect fuel delivery.

Instead of looking for a reset switch, you should:

1. Check your fuel level: Make sure you have enough gas.

2. Check the fuel filter: This is a relatively inexpensive and easy maintenance item that can often solve problems.

3. Have the car diagnosed: Take your Intrepid to a qualified mechanic or auto parts store with diagnostic equipment. They can check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) using an OBD-II scanner, which will point to the specific problem.

In short, there's no fuel reset switch. You need to diagnose the underlying problem causing your fuel-related issue.
