#112 of 131 Error Codes U0140 and U110C by anthonygick

I have a 2005 Chrysler pacifica with the 3.8 v6 with 107,000 miles. Last week my cluster went dark and windshield wipers quit working. After check the fuses and cussing up a storm everything started to work again except for the check engine light. The local auto parts store hooked up their computer and gave me 2 codes U140 "Lost communication with body control module" and U110C "Lost fuel level message". I have searched the net for information but can't find anything. Is this gonna be a costly repair or is it just something that happens periodically? I would hate to have to buy another car since it is now paid for but I am really not inclined to drop a huge amount of money of fixing a car and then worry about being nickel and dimed to death. Any suggestion or repair guidance?

Hi , READ this is lights flicker.......... I did the recall with my'05 years ago and the lights have been going off and on as well. They just Both went out and that's when I had to follow-up. Dealer played games with diagnostic charges, new bulbs,etc.. I took the housing out (2 screws on top) and when I pulled out the large casing the lights flickered. It's the wire harnesss as someone described above (from mexico,etc..) . I actually overheard the mechanic talk to the mgr that the harness was bad.... they are re-doing the recall. now to get my 300 bucks back from dealer who had to have seen them flicker when they diagnosed 2 times ....unreal... also, I was in the shop when they pulled out the light the third time to be sure they saw the flicker and could not LIE again.. you ALL may need to do the same... Don't we all own that company with our tax bailout ??? good luck and let me know what happens...

I have 2006 Chrysler Pacifica AWD. When the car idle the lights dim and lights on dash board dim along with the head lights. Also when I have the hazzard light flashing the dimming lights flash along with it. Any ideas on what is going on?

I am having the same problem. Did you, your mechanic or dealer figure out what the issue is? Single mom to 3 here and would like to have my friend, who is a mechanic fix it, but I don't want to buy 8 different parts to figure out which one it is. Most electrical parts can't be returned. Any information would be so helpful and thank you in advance! - Stephanie

My mom has an '04 Chrysler Pacifica. She got to my house today, as she was pulling in she said the light down by the shifter that comes on when you push it when you want to keep from skidding around (AND I believe ABS is what she's talking about) came on and then the flashers came on. She doesn't know why and the odds of her bumping both of these buttons and turning then on wld be pretty much impossible.
 
We lost my dad in January of this yr, my mom is 76 yrs old. She's up and going and active, but on a VERY limited income. I promised my dad on his death bed it was OK to go, I wld take care of her. I know nothing about cars, just that mechanics will take advantage of us not knowing what's wrong. We don't have the finances for an expensive fix.
 
PLEASE HELP!!

Sorry to hear about your troubles, but when I first started taking my 05 Pacifica to Midas they had given me a report on the vehicle that informed customers of recalls and common problems. I remember there was something with an abs speed sensor being listed on there. If the engine light hasn't come on, then I would give the vehicle a park and see if it happens again. There has been funny business with my whole electrical system on the dash, and it goes away after giving it a park. I really hope this helps

I'm unsure whether your having problems with the abs brake light, or if your dash lights have. gone completely black. In my case with the dash lights I turned the vehicle off for 20 minutes plus and the dash lights were back to normal. This vehicle has given me a few problems since, and i feel like it has something to do with the vehicles onboard computer. I just hope that wouldn't be it being that its expensive . I know its very irritating,and I hope this helps.
