'99 Voyager-electric? by sumsmum

A couple of months ago, I started up my Voyager and it stalled when I started to put it in gear. This happened several times, and then it just stopped doing anything: clicking, turning over, nada. I had to have friends help me push it back into my parking spot (I had let it drift back a bit), and it started right away. I've had no problems since, until the same thing yesterday, except I did not have to put it in gear for the stalling to happen. It did not start up when I retried later, but today when I caught a ride out, it started right up.
Any ideas? My mechanic is stumped and it not the type to just start putting things in and charging without knowing if he will fix it.

Just a guess, but sounds like your ignition switch (where you put your key into the ignition). Have your mechanic take a look at it. Good luck.

My 1996 Plymouth Voyager has a bad MAP sensor and I want to know how long will my car run with a bad MAP sensor. It has only been 2 days since I was told that I have a bad map system and my car has not stalled or stopped.

I saw your posting and went out to look at my fuse box, but could not identify an anti theft fuse. Was it labelled?

i have the same problem...it started about a year ago. i replaced the BCM and it was not the problem...i got mad at the van one day and with the key left in the start position i "banged on the dash above the control panel.....the dash lights came on and it started working again. The van has done this several times and each time i hit it and it starts working again....until this last time and it no longer will come on. I knew this would happen one day...i only hoped someone would figure the solution before now. i read an old message on this site and someone suggested the park-neutral-safety switch has a bad connection. I think it has something to do with the alarm system.

Got a 2003 Chrysler voyager parked it at the airport for 3 days when i returned it would not start! I checked everything out in the parking deck for loose connections etc. I just so happened to of pulled the entire fuse box located on the drivers side fender and the bottom of it was severely corroded. cleaned it up the best I could the van started right up. My buddy works for chrysler and he told me they are having problems with those corroding around 70,000 miles causing the vans to not start and confusing everyone with bogus codes. So I replaced it with a new fuse box cost me 375.00 and have not even had a slight hint of a problem. most garages will try to tell you the Pcm is bad try pulling the entire fuse pannel and check the connections on the bottom first if they are corroded that is your problem

1995 Dodge Caravan, Engine Surging and then Dying when stopped and in Drive by danutdlp

Hi there. I have a 1995 dodge caravan, that has been having an issue lately. When i come to a stop and wait at a red light, the van will be in drive and I will have my foot on the brake. After about 5 seconds of being stopped, the engine starts to surge up and down, and after about 4 times surging up and down it will die. If I stick it in neutral or park the engine will balance out and be fine. It only happens when it is in reverse or drive and I am stopped. While I drive I have no problems. I had a compression check on the cylinders and they are running great. I also had the timing ajusted and the throttle positioning sensor replaced. I also put in a fuel injector cleaner about 200 miles ago and that still didn't change anything. Last thing I did, I replaced the Idle Control motor. It still does it and I don't know what else it can be. Has this happened to anybody else? And what could it be?
 
Thanks
