#26228 of 26365 Storm turns on 4-way flasher by tkaz Jul 23, 2007 (5:50 pm)
When there is a strong lightning/thunder storm, the 4-way flashers may turn on on my 99 LHS. This has happened 3 times with the result the battery is drained. When it has happened the 4-way light switch has popped up. Is this indicitive of a bad switch or is there something else, such as the alarm system turning on the 4-way flasher switch? My dealer thinks I am nuts. Maybe? Replies to this message: tayl0rd (Jul 24, 2007 4:03 am) bertoski (Jul 24, 2007 5:50 am) rider62 (Jul 26, 2007 7:22 pm)

Replying to: tkaz (Jul 23, 2007 5:50 pm) Only happens during a lightning/thunder storm? I think you have an evil spirit messing with you. Or there's some kind of divine intervention going on trying to tell you something about your car.

Replying to: tkaz (Jul 23, 2007 5:50 pm) I have a 2000 300m, there is a short somewhere. When I turn my flashers on, they blow the fuse. This started happening about 6-7 months ago. Also when it's humid and raining, when I try to start the car, it won't start plus all the lights in the car flash. I tried looking for a cause of the short, but did not find anything.

#26232 of 26365 Replace whole door panel to replace plastic hand grip cup? by cebteb Aug 01, 2007 (8:46 pm)
The driver's door on our '99 300M is showing its age in that the small plastic hand grip cup in the door arm is cracking all over. The edges easily pull away from the door arm and their is a single screw in the bottom of the "cup". So I go to a Chrysler Dealer's parts shop and inquire about a replacement. They tell me the plastic cup cannot be replaced as a single item and that to replace it I would need to buy a whole new door panel. This is after they did a search on their parts computer.   It sounds insane! Anyone replaced one of these plastic hand grip cups in a 300M? Note that there are 4 of these cups in the 300M, one in each door arm. Replies to this message: tayl0rd (Aug 02, 2007 4:26 am)

Replying to: cebteb (Aug 01, 2007 8:46 pm) I believe there was a TSB issued for those hand grips a few years ago. I do believe just the cup can be replaced. I think your dealer is trying to sell you a bill of goods.
#26234 of 26365 Craig Hind Chrysler True 5* in Toronto by beatles67 Aug 04, 2007 (2:08 pm)
Had the most amazing service and treatment from a dealer I have ever experienced. Craig Hind in Toronto solved a brake issue that nobody else was able to. They spent 8 hours diagnosing and I was not charged for it. It came down to 2 parts which I was able to get from a wrecker, the brake booster and HCU unit. The HCU was $897 new and I got it for $75. They had no issues installing these parts and when I left my car I told them to only install the HCU as we'd started to run low on funds. When I went to pick the car up Kevin the manager took me aside and said he'd installed the brake booster for free. We were treated with respect and as if our business really meant a lot to them. For people in Toronto I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Replying to: vernon1 (Jun 15, 2007 9:36 am) Vernon - Sorry to be so slow in answering, I haven't been here in quite a while. You probably solved the problem by now. But, if not, I had the dealer do the speakers although I was told the speaker covers could be popped off real easy to get at the speakers. I just wasn't comfortable trying it and figured I'd break or puncture something if I tried it. I changed them both out even tho only one had a problem and got the one good one back to keep as a spare.
#26236 of 26365 2001 Crank Sensor - 3.5 L by mikec8 Sep 10, 2007 (3:45 pm)
Anyone know where the sensor is or a web site where I can get pictures. 3.5L engine. I have a book, but it only shows detail for a 2.7L--no help. Also, I don't like dealing with local Chrysler place. Can anyone recommend a good source to buy the sensor? Thanks...Mike

crankshaft position sensor is located in the front of the engine in the timing belt housing cover above the left camshaft sprocket. If you have a shop manual the picture is shown on page 8D-9 fig 23.
