#1395 of 1422 electrical problem? by greenferd Apr 05, 2008 (4:23 pm)
A couple of days ago I drove about 150 miles, no problems. I left the van in the garage two days and when I tried to start it--dead as a door nail. I recharged the battery with a trickle charger. It now starts but when I turn the ignition on all the gauges move to the right for several seconds and then return to normal positions in a startup. Also, ALL the instrument warning lights come on and remain on until the gauges return to their normal position. Do I have a major electrical problem or perhaps just a bad battery.

Replying to: greenferd (Apr 05, 2008 4:23 pm) How were the instrument gauges and lights behaving before you had the dead battery? The way you're describing how they work now is how I would expect them to work. The gauges moving the right and all the warning lights coming on serves as a self test that all of your indicators are working. Otherwise, how would you know if a bulb was burned out?
#1397 of 1422 2005 T&C electrical issues by sadvan May 12, 2008 (3:54 am)
It started months ago, when the van was wet and you stepped on the brakes the radio, wipers, and atuo windows stopepd working until you released brake. Then the above would fail intermittenly without stepping on the brake. Now all of the gauges go crazy, ABS and Brake lights come on and off and ding, radio goes on and off, etc. while driving. It's worse when wet when I actually need the wipers! I've brought it to a dealership and an auto. electric place and no one can figure out what's wrong! Help!!

Replying to: dpullen4 (Mar 06, 2008 8:44 am) What was the resolution? I just today experienced the same issue. Were you simply able to replace the wires? Email me at tr0401gmail.com if you do not mind. Thank you

Replying to: susy2 (Dec 06, 2005 11:36 am) Hi Susy2,   I found your post on google. I know it was 3 years ago but I was wondering if you could give me some information. I have a 2006 Grand Caravan sxt and am thinking of purchasing the same overhead dvd player you have (Audiovox DT102DOPKG). They're selling on ebay for $199. If you wouldn't mind letting me know how that dvd player has turned out for you and where did you finally place it? I don't care too much for the climate controls. Do you know if there is a way to replace that with the overhead dvd? Please any help would be greatly appreciated by you or anyone else in this forum. Thanks very much for your time.
#1400 of 1422 3.3 vs 3.8? by kmsandrbs Aug 25, 2008 (7:12 pm)

#1401 of 1422 Strange DRL behavior by backy Oct 11, 2008 (8:42 pm)
I have a 2007 T&C LX with DRLs. I noticed as I was driving ahead of my wife the other day (she had the van) that when she put on a turn signal, the headlamp (DRL lamp) on the same side as the turn signal went out while the turn signal was on. I've never noticed that kind of behavior before with DRLs. Anyone know if it's supposed to do that? Replies to this message: baveux (Oct 17, 2008 1:31 pm)
#1402 of 1422 Re: 3.3 vs 3.8? [kmsandrbs] by backy Oct 11, 2008 (8:46 pm)
Replying to: kmsandrbs (Aug 25, 2008 7:12 pm) My 2007 T&C LX has the 3.3L, which I find has more than enough power for normal use. It's no dragster but it can get up to highway speed just fine. FWIW, the 2007 3.3L has the same hp, 180, as my 1999 GCS did with the 3.8L motor. I didn't have any particular reason to get the 3.3 over the 3.8. I was looking for a good used Grand Caravan or T&C and found one that was in excellent shape at a great price, and it happened to be a relatively bare-bones model with the 3.3L.

Replying to: backy (Oct 11, 2008 8:42 pm) Yes normal behavior don't worry, almost all Chrysler product are now like that
