#60 of 69 Starting Issues by need2no1 Jun 30, 2009 (3:08 pm)
I am new to this place. I have also been having problems with my 2000 Chrysler 300m. I have around 145K mile on mine. I have had the car for about 2 years and have had no problems with it until all of the sudden I was driving to work and I pressed on the gas and the car just shut off. I got a couple people to look at it and they told me the fuel pump. So I got the fuel pump fixed and it still didnt start. Now they say it cold possibly be the Ignitin Control Module. Does anybody have any information of what exactly the problem might be and what else I could have checked before I go and spend the $800 to have the ICM fixed?

All the lights are flashing but it does nothing when I turn the key. It used to do this but would start after a while, now it wont start at all. Any ideas would be a God send, thank you in advance! Replies to this message: 300maximilien (Jul 15, 2009 11:28 am)

Replying to: maizenblue989 (Jun 30, 2009 5:25 pm) I would start by checking the Jump posts and all battery connections. Next place would be the starter and connections. Might be contacts are worn out
#63 of 69 random stalling by rugga56 Jul 21, 2009 (7:35 am)
My 300M keeps on stalling. I have replaced my cam and crank sensors,ignition coils, spark plugs, timing belt, and fuel pump. Every time I easy in on the gas going between 10-60mph I just might stall. Does anyone have a solution that will fix this problem? Replies to this message: danfishinman (Aug 01, 2009 6:35 am)
#64 of 69 How I solved my stalling problem - EGR valve by danfishinman Jul 23, 2009 (1:02 pm)
I have a 2000 300M with 102K miles and it just recently started to stall on deceleration (off ramps and stop lights) but only after it had warmed up. It would re start ... but run rough and then stall again. Check engine light Never came on and no codes were stored BUT when i left my OBD scanner plugged in while driving I noticed a PENDING P0404 code...meaning that it was intermittent. P0404 is an EGR valve problem. I found one of the last EGR valves in the northeast last saturday ($180) and had my mechanic put it in (not an easy job) it took him 4 hours ($320) (had to deal with lots of old bolts) but it worked!!!! My car is now safe and fun to drive again.

Replying to: dsisco (Aug 10, 2008 11:01 am) I too am having the same problem. A 1999 300m that is hard to start when its hot,after a long haul.If it was a carburated vihical I would assume it was a choke problem by the way its acting.In order to start I must do some serious fethering of the gas,but once its started it runs great.It only does it on a long haul shut off then restart.If I wait a halh hour it starts with no problem. Anyone ever figure it out?

#69 of 69 2002 300M won't start by dellagx Sep 28, 2009 (6:03 pm)
car was running fine all day, I came out the store after about 10 minutes and started it, it turned off immediately, no choking before doing so. It did this 3 times before it finally would not crank at all. The neutral switch and steering column have been replaced, battery has been checked, and I don't know what else to do. If the cam sensor is bad, would it be causing this? That is where I'm leaning right now, i will have to take it to a dealership soon if i can't figure it out.
