#4238 of 4276 Re: Bosch +4 spark plugs? [safecycle] by mrbizness1 Oct 01, 2006 (4:20 pm)
Replying to: safecycle (Sep 27, 2006 10:16 pm) I had the dealer replace the plugs using Champions at 95k and noticed the improvement. I was going to use the Bosch Platinum until I read in Consumer's that they didn't really make a much of a difference over standard plugs.   I did try the platinum in my Altima because the store had a sale on them. I had replaced NGK plugs with 55k miles on them. I didn't notice any change in performance.

My speedometer stopped working on my 2001 Chrysler Town & Country. Does anyone have a suggestion on fixing this problem?
#4241 of 4276 Dead 91 Voyager by otis9 Oct 03, 2006 (5:16 am)
I have a 91 base Voyager with approx. 90,000 miles that died while I was pulling into a parking space. It shut down like someone turned off the key. Had to have it towed home on a Sunday night when everything was closed.   There is no click when turning the key to start it. No radio, gages/idiot lights, wipers or turn signals. Head lights, emergency flashers, heater blower, power tail gate release & interior lights all work. The battery is Ok.   Anyone have these problems or an idea what to look for?   I called 3 dealerships & Chrysler's help line. None of them had a clue (or wouldn't give one).   This thing is one of the worst vehicles I ever owned.   Replies to this message: shipo (Oct 03, 2006 5:30 am) otis9 (Oct 04, 2006 3:29 am) mfahey1 (Oct 03, 2006 2:37 pm) jpf (Oct 03, 2006 4:09 pm) dan77 (Oct 08, 2006 10:33 am) otis9 (Oct 08, 2006 6:16 pm) otis9 (Oct 22, 2006 3:42 am)

Replying to: otis9 (Oct 03, 2006 5:16 am) Let me get this straight; you have a fifteen year old vehicle that dies from an apparent electrical fault, and then without having a professional look at it you've decided to call your car a lemon?   What's up with that?   Best Regards, Shipo Replies to this message: otis9 (Oct 04, 2006 3:29 am)

Replying to: otis9 (Oct 03, 2006 5:16 am) I would start by looking in the fuse box for any blown fuses. I would also clean all battery related connections such as the ground at the battery and at the engine. Also look for a part of the wiring harness that has either been burned or has shorted to the chassis.

Replying to: otis9 (Oct 03, 2006 5:16 am) We had a 91 Caravan years ago and I remember a similar no start occurrence. It turned out to be a loose wire on the park-neutral-safety switch. This switch prevents the vehicle from being started when in any gear other than park or neutral. I would check out this switch. Good luck.

Replying to: shipo (Oct 03, 2006 5:30 am) Yep! I didn't get into the long list of other problems. Back of the drivers seat ready to break off, rusted brake lines, oil leaks that can't be stopped & The professionals can't get it to pass smog for the last 4 yrs!

Replying to: penway (Nov 18, 2005 1:58 pm) I have the same problem with my 2003 Dodge Grand caravan. I didn't have the alarm system equipped but it has come on and stayed on. No other engine performance problems. Did you get it resolved?
