2001 Dodge Caravan: windshield wiper failure

Filed Apr 2, 2007 · Electrical · 00

2 day's ago my radio/cd player stopped worked. The power is constantly, it is showing the last radio station that was on and the display also shows disk song 7. Nothing happens when you push the power button. Then today when I put my 4 ways on the rear wiper started going and then stuck in the middle of the window. Now it will not work at all along with the fluid dispenser. I checked the fuses and they all appear to be ok can't tell with the solid black ones though. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Water pump replaced on vehicle. After that whenever it rains, the following intermittently do not work -- windshield wipers, defrost/heater, radio/clock, power windows. Took to dodge dealer several times. Problem thought to be vehicle computer system. Replaced -- that did not solve problem. Vehicle in shop almost a week and problem still has not been identified. Thought to be electrical.

Dt: the caller complained about electrical system problem. He states that headlights will turn off at night without warning. The windshield wipers will shut off as well. Sometimes the headlights and windshield wipers will come back on, and sometimes they won't come on at all. Also, the horn blows, and the dashboard lights will be on, and the automatic headlights will not shut off when the vehicle is turned off. Dealer said they do not know what the problem is. Another dealer replaced the body control module. Manufacturer said to continue to work with dealer.

For a variety of reasons I have had no occasion to drive the car at night in rain using full wipers until aug. 28, 2002. At that time I discovered that the low beams provided no illumination in the rain and I had to use high beams. On sept. 5, I discussed the rpoblem with dealer service personnel and was advised it was a common problem and I should go to western auto and get them to install "blue" bulbs. These would help. The same day I called chrysler customer service and was informed that they would do nothing because the lights meet "specifications". Maybe so, but they are inadequate and this should be investigated. In the meantime I am having "blue" bulbs installed so I can see where I cam going in the rain at night. Ipers until aug. 28, 2002.the low beams provided essentially no lighting so that I had to use the high beams to see where I was going. I went to the dealer on sept. 5 to complain and was advised to go to western auto and get "blue" bulbs which is what others with the same prpoblem have been doing. I called chrysler customer service the same day and was informed that they would do nothing as the lights meet "specifications".

Windshield wipers quit working with no prior warning. Mechanic stated did 21 point test and jiggled wire to get windshield wipers working again.
