#126 of 289 ac-heater control by ahillbilly Sep 20, 2007 (12:01 pm)
I have a 98 plymouth expresso and the heater control ac, rear wiper/washer are all dead no lights or anything. Basicly everything in the control modul don't work except the fan speed switch. Fuses are ok and it looks like this module recieves power from the fan switch and it has power. I tryed the reset and nothing happens ,any ideas . thanks inadvance Allan
#127 of 289 headlights acting up by ahillbilly Sep 20, 2007 (12:24 pm)
I have a 98 plymouth espresso about a year ago headlighs started acting up . Turn headlights on and nothing ,put highbeams on and vola you have lights. The only way to have headlights turn on or off was with the dimmer switch. parklights worked normaly through the lightswitch. Daytime running lights not work either. I have tried swapping headlight switch, dimmer switch, daytime running light module every relay and nothing. problem may be at the bcm or the fuse box under the hood. what I did to temporly fix it so I have high/low beams is ran a jumper wire. I would like to fix this properly . If anyone had this same problem and found a souliton I would apprecate it Thanks inadvance Allan

#130 of 289 98 Dodge Instrument Panel by craner Oct 03, 2007 (1:03 pm)
My instrument panel works intermittently. The car runs ok. Also the buttons for the heater and Ac controls blink constantly and the check engine light goes on when this happens with the panel. It is a 1998 3.3..no power windows..I have read all sorts of solutions but if someone can give me a really simple thing to try would greatly appreciate it!!!

Replying to: suvsrclunkers (Oct 01, 2007 5:33 pm) I have a 99 caravan with the same problem. I changed the wiper control arm/blinker arm, and that did not fix the problem. I changed the wiper motor and the problem was fixed. Replies to this message: above49caravan (Jan 20, 2009 10:31 am)
#132 of 289 caravan ignition switch by shark4 Oct 05, 2007 (5:43 pm)
My 99 caravan ignition switch was replaced 3 years ago. 40, 000 miles later it is not working properly and needs replacement again. The warranty is only one year on this part. Anybody else have problems with this??

"When I stop, turn off the engine and turn off the headlights the low beam stay on. I have to turn the ignition switch on (do not have to start engine), turn on and off the light switch again and they go off."   You need to read the manual, they're supposed to do that. If you turn the lights off before you turn off the engine, then they'll go off, however, if you turn the engine off first then the light switch, the lights are supposed to stay on for something like a minute. To cancel this one minute lighting event, simply turn the lights on and off again.   "But this morning the car was just sitting with no one near it and the low beams came on by themselves."   Granted it's been nine years since I read the Owner's Manual to our 1998 DGC, however, IIRC the manual states that if you simply leave the headlights on when you turn the engine off and then don't enable the one minute feature by then turning off the switch, the headlights will "time out" just like the interior lights will if a door is left open. Then as soon as you start the van back up, the lights will come on.   Best Regards, Shipo Replies to this message: foxridge4 (Oct 05, 2007 8:03 pm)
#134 of 289 Sorry, I should clarify the problem better by foxridge4 Oct 05, 2007 (8:03 pm)
Replying to: shipo (Oct 05, 2007 7:15 am) I am well aware of the one minute timeout for the headlights as we have owned the Voyager since buying it new in 1998. Up until the new battery was installed that headlight feature worked great. But now the low beams stay on for hours. I have to then go back out to the van, put the key in the ignition, turn it on and then turn the headlights on and off again. The headlights then turn off and stay off.....at least I thought so...but both my wife and I saw the lights just come on by themselves after sitting for hours completely off. I then had to repeat the procedure with the ignition and this time they stayed off. Very wierd. It is now at the dealership that replace the battery and did some other work so maybe they can figure it out. I just thought maybe others had experienced these types of gremlins. Thanks

Replying to: jeff5280 (Jan 13, 2007 7:26 am) Just in case you haven't solved it yet. I've had the same thing happen to my '97 Grand Caravan. The fix was different from the other replies here so I thought I'd add mine. It's really simple - the main bus socket at the back of the instrument cluster had cold solder joiints. Just re-touching each pad on the circuit board with a hot soldering iron fixed the problem - cost = $0.00. Hope that helps.
