You have to pull the dash almost out to replace the heater core. first drain the coolant and remove the heater hoses in the engine compartment. Next lower the steering column. there are 4-5 8mm screws onthe top of the dash,and tw 13mmbolts on the sides remove the kick panels to see them. Also remove the airbag module on the tranny hump under the dash.when all is unfastened you can pull the dash back on the passengers side back and almost put it on the seat. you will see the heater core on the top of the heater box. Discharge the ac and remove the heater box fasteners in the engine compartment . pull the box down inthe cab of the truck r&r core. sound worse thatn it really is good luck

How do you get a dodge 1500 2003 heater core out?

Well if your 1500 is any thing like my 03 2500 hemi 4+4 then you need about six hours of free time. The heater core is behind the passenger side dash area you have to first begin to take the front dash all the way apart and I mean all instrument cluster drop steering wheel from middle support bracket after that you will disconnect the ac lines into firewall this is not easy task but can be done with specialty ac tool then in both sides passenger four bolts on each side take those the whole dash can then be pulled back far enough to take two hoses of heater core and in engine compartment four bolts hold it in then follow steps to install

I have a 2002 dodge ram 1500 pickup w. hwat issues

is this a problem w/ the interior vents? maybe stuck venting in outside air rather than from the heater box? did the heat only stop working after the radiator/hose install? if so, then you probably have a big air pocket stuck in the heater core.

No heat

You probably just need to backflush your heater core. You can use a hose to flush it back and then forward. You'll be surprised at how much sludge and gunk will come out.
