#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.

#1405 of 1422 Security Lock-out by jim291 Nov 01, 2008 (3:15 am)
How do I reset the security lockout on my 2005 Town & Country? If is disconnect the battery will that reset it? Also, the power door locks stopped working. Replies to this message: Rik4051 (Dec 04, 2008 7:52 am)

I don't know about your security question but removing the IOD fuse for a few minutes or disconnecting battery for a few minutes will get your locks working again.   C.B.
#1407 of 1422 Grand Caravan EX towing by knudsen Nov 10, 2008 (7:22 pm)
Does anyone know specifically what the difference is between an EX and an EX with the Towing Package? I have the 3.8 L engine, 4 wheel disc brakes, transmission cooler, heavy duty radiator, heavy duty alternator. I want to buy a boat but it is near the limit for the standard version. The insurance company says that if I don't touch the engine, drive train or suspension (i.e. add a hitch) than it's OK to upgrade the vehicle to tow the larger amount. The boat I'm looking at is 1680 lbs dry so I only have 120 lbs to hit the standard limit of 1800 lbs. If someone with a 2001 EX and towing package could supply me with the last 8 digit of thier VIN number the dealer could look up the difference between the two. Otherwise, they're clueless.   Thanks in advance

Replying to: jim291 (Nov 01, 2008 3:15 am) I'll admit that I'm not totally sure what you mean by the security lockout, but the door lock issue is a known and very common one. The actual problem is that the software has a glitch, but the dealer will charge you to fix it. The work-around is to pull the IOD fuse (it's located toward the back of the fuse box in the engine) for about 30 seconds or so and the computer will reset itself. The door locks will then work again. Unfortunately, my experience has been that it is a temporary fix. May last a week, may last a day. I hope this helps.
#1409 of 1422 Not all the buttons on dvd remote function... by mommiof3 Dec 04, 2008 (9:34 am)
I have an 2005 GC with a dvd player and wireless headphones. The remote control will only allow me to select from menu, ffwd, reverse and illuminate. The other buttons such as the one to power the headphones do not function. I've put new batteries in it, along with the headphones and I still cannot get them to work. Any suggestions?
#1410 of 1422 Re: 2005 T&C electrical issues [sadvan] by rzdw92 Dec 30, 2008 (6:20 pm)
Replying to: sadvan (May 12, 2008 3:54 am) We started having the same issue in December 2008. We took it to a dealer who proposed replacing up to 3 different parts (front control module, body control module, and a wiring harness - they had no clue what the real cause was). We said thanks but we can't afford that many repairs.   It also happens to us more when it's wet out. Did you ever get a resolution?
