| Check your overhead console there is an on/off button to the left of the rear door controls.If this button is set to off the buttons on the pillars of the rear seats do not work. | |

I have a grand voyager that discharge the battery when the car is not used. It discharge quickly and when I measure the current from the battery when everything is off or appears to be off it still consumes 1.5-2 amps constantly. I have removed all fuses and relays in the fusebox in the engine compartment and it still consumes this amout of corrent. 1. is this a normal level? 2. if not, where do I start looking? greatful for any advice. |

Just bought two of these (a Grand for me and T&C for my daughter). We both got the 4.0 with 6 speed and they drive perfect. I was a mechanic until 911 and these seem to be tight well built vehicles. Just wondered how eveyone else was doing with their 2009 GC and TC.

 I had an accident and broke the rear lift gate outside handle on my 2002 Grand Caravan. can anyone recommend an auto salvage yard or parts supplier that would carry a replacement part? MoparPartz.Com has one of these listed but there is no picture, so I am not sure If I am ordering everything I need. Thanks

Hi,I have a 96 Dodge Grand Caravan 3.8 ltr,148k . Code reads P0300... It drives great on short trips but on longer ones it all of a sudden loses power and the service engine light starts blinking.It will regain power after a few but it runs rough and sputters(what's the word) it backfired a few times when this happend to my husband. I have replaced the coil,spark plugs/wires,and the PCM..600.00 + and it's still doing the same thing. It seems to be only when it heats to a certain temp..I don't know,I have lots of things on my list but I was hoping someone may be able to help me narrow it down a bit more. Heres my list of potential culprates:camshaft position sensor,crankshaft sensor, oxygen sensor,MAP sensor,fuel presure regulator, EGR and burned exhaust valve. Really trying to save money on repairs and I do most simple repairs myself. I have inspected all vaccum lines as well,they are ok. Peace & Wellness

Replying to: jennydawg (Apr 12, 2009 2:47 pm) Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected What does that mean? Basically this means that the the car's computer has detected that not all of the engine's cylinders are firing properly. A P0300 OBD DTC code indicates a random or multiple misfire. If the last digit is a number other than zero, it corresponds to the cylinder number that is misfiring. A P0302 code, for example, would tell you cylinder number two is misfiring. Unfortunately, a P0300 doesn't tell you specifically which cylinder(s) is/are mis-firing, nor why. Symptoms may include: the engine may be harder to start the engine may stumble / stumble, and/or hesitate other symptoms may also be present Causes A code P0300 may mean that one or more of the following has happened: Faulty spark plugs or wires Faulty coil (pack) Faulty oxygen sensor(s) Faulty fuel injector(s) Burned exhaust valve Faulty catalytic converter(s) Stuck/blocked EGR valve / passages Faulty camshaft position sensor Defective computer Possible Solutions If there are no symptoms, the simplest thing to do is to reset the code and see if it comes back. If there are symptoms such as the engine is stumbling or hesitating, check all wiring and connectors that lead to the cylinders (i.e. spark plugs). Depending on how long the ignition components have been in the car, it may be a good idea to replace them as part of your regular maintenance schedule. I would suggest spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, and rotor (if applicable). Otherwise, check the coils (a.k.a. coil packs). In some cases, the catalytic converter has gone bad. If you smell rotten eggs in the exhaust, your cat converter needs to be replaced. I've also heard in other cases the problems were faulty fuel injectors. Random misfires that jump around from one cylinder to another (read: P030x codes) also will set a P0300 code. The underlying cause is often a lean fuel condition, which may be due to a vacuum leak in the intake manifold or unmetered air getting past the airflow sensor, or an EGR valve that is stuck open.

When I come to a stop my idle drops down to about 500 RPMs while in drive. then I get check engine light on. In checking the code it reads P420 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1). This light does not come on if I put it in Neutral when I come to a stop. In fact, the RPMs, remain at about 750. Can you please help me decide what is going on

Replying to: docbunner (Apr 13, 2009 7:38 am) Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1) What does that mean? The catalytic converter has an oxygen sensor in front and behind it. When the vehicle is warm and running in closed loop mode, the upstream oxygen sensor waveform reading should fluctuate. The downstream O2 sensor reading should be fairly steady. Typically the P0420 code triggers the Check Engine Light if the readings of the two sensors are similar. This is indicative of (among other things) a converter that is not working as efficiently as it should be (according to specs). It is part of the vehicle emissions system. Symptoms You will likely not notice any drivability problems, although there may be symptoms. Causes A code P0420 may mean that one or more of the following has happened: Leaded fuel was used where unleaded was called for An oxygen sensor is not reading (functioning) properly The engine coolant temperature sensor is not working properly Damaged or leaking exhaust manifold / catalytic converter / exhaust pipe Retarded spark timing The oxygen sensors in front and behind the converter are reporting too similar of readings Possible Solutions Some suggested steps for troubleshooting a P0420 code include: Check for exhaust leaks at the manifold, pipes, catalytic converter. Repair as required. Use a scope to diagnose the oxygen sensor operation (Tip: The oxygen sensor in front of the catalytic converter normally has a fluctuating waveform. The waveform of the sensor behind the converter should be more steady). Inspect the downstream heated oxygen sensor (HO2), replace if necessary Replace the catalytic converter One thing to note is that many vehicle manufacturers offer a longer warranty on emissions-related parts. So if you have a newer car but it's out of it's bumper-to-bumper warranty, there still may be warranty on this type of problem. Many manufacturers give a five year, unlimited mileage warranty on these items. It's worth checking into. |
