#37 of 428 Chrysler Wiring problem by limpy Nov 27, 2006 (7:37 am)
I have an "02 T &C. Recently, all accessories shut down after starting. While trouble shooting this problem, after several starts the engine would not crank. I took it to a dealer. The tech first said that acid had dripped into the harness, causing a short. Repair would be $200 to $500. After i authorized that amount, he said that The tranny solenoid had been leaking into the harness and had haderned the insulation on the wires so badly that he could not find a place to begin the repair. the harness would have to be replaced at a cost ot $2500. Doesn't the wiring actually go into the solenoid where it is exposed to transmission fluid? A few years back another manufacturer had a problem with hardening wiring and they recommended soaking the harness in oil to keep it soft.

Replying to: limpy (Nov 27, 2006 7:37 am) Thank you for your quick response.   I went to town this morning and the cooling fan stopped running altogether. It got hot and I had to wait for it to cool down before I could get it home. It is a 1996 and has 213,000 miles on it. It's been a great vehicle; I need something smaller because my kids are 17 and 19 now.   Regards

'01 T&C: I carry a wheelchair & have successfully charged it up while driving with inverter connected to rear outlet for 12 months BUT now no juice to this & the other front outlet with power controlled by ignition switch. Power is on at the outle not controlled by ignition switch.   Is there an in-line circuit breaker? Everything else works & cannot find blown fuse.   HELP!   Thanks   coakleysr Replies to this message: myronlh (Dec 14, 2007 4:56 pm) myronlh (Dec 15, 2007 7:07 pm)

#43 of 428 '02 T&C: Power Doors unlock but don't move by Jan 01, 2007 (11:27 am)
Replying to: brad32378 (Dec 30, 2006 6:08 pm) My 2002 T&C LXi has 3 powered doors (sides and tailgate). All of them work fine when warm.   After the weather cools down to 50F, all 3 of them click (unlock), but don't slide. Sliding manually is working. After this initial problem, power sliding works OK in both directions. If a minivan is first warmed up, there is no problem.   A dealer mechanic suggested there could be some door switch contacts oxidizing overnight or sticking. If this is true, where would I find it? Could it be on 3 doors at the same time?   Please share your experinence! Replies to this message: brad32378 (Jan 02, 2007 9:38 pm)

Replying to: jmudry (Jul 18, 2006 5:03 am) I just bought a 2006 T&C with 10mi out the door; on the first night, the dash cluster pooped out and all gages and display DEAD - i took it to the dealership to fix and they claim it was intermitent- so I got it back; a week later, it pooped again, took it to the dealership again- hook it up to their machine and they said everything was fine; then, a 3rd time happened; i video taped this problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZfKCGwdv0k     In any case, Chrysler is not taking responsibility and I'm very disappointed at this car, at me buying this car, and I just do not want any1 else to suffer the same problem(s) Replies to this message: brad32378 (Jan 04, 2007 6:03 pm) roeteena (Feb 09, 2009 12:45 am)
