Multiple warning lights by model year
What owners say
My electrical system has a demand. It started with power sliding door not opening then the locks would not unlock if I did not slam the side door shut the flashers would come on and I could not shut them off the rear window wiper started moving I could not shut if off all the dash lights started flashing and indicated I had no gas. This is a handicapped modified van and I use a wheelchair to ambulate. I have taken off work for full days and partial days to get this problem diagnosed and fixed. After a $2,488 dollar bill to excise the demand the door still will not open and the wheelchair ramp will not deploy. I have to work and I am almost out of leave. Dodge should come to the rescue and assume responsibility for the computer problem that they are aware of and recall these vehicles to have the computer program patch to all owners. My problems started at 38,000 miles.
Started up the car and all the lights on the dash stayed on, fuel light, eng light, ABS light ....all the lighted squares around the gear (dl321) stayed lit and would not shut off until I turned the engine off and then they didn't shut off until the automatic cut off ..shut them down. Checked all the fuses and the fmc and the pdc to clean connections and didn't change. Disconnected the battery cables and then reconnected them. Still nothing called the dealer and he said that they could connect the diagnostic but sounded like the module needed to be replaced at a start of $500. My headlights have been having on and off problems every once in a while along with the drivers window not going down then it works fine for a long time and then stops again.
The vehicle shuts off and all the dash lights and every thing shuts down.
The vehicle is not properly sealed. The grounds were all corroded and letting moisture or salt into components. First thing that happened was all the lights came on and then all went out. Couldn't see speed or gears. I have had to replace the basic control module and having the body control module checked out today. Everything under the hood is corroding at a fast pace. You can see even the metal on the engine. I hoping my wiring harness is ok. But the tech hasn't gotten that far yet.
Headlights went out at night while driving. Turning the headlight switch a few times and they came back on. Next day, headlights would not come on, after turning the headlight switch a few times they came on. All lights work correctly except for headlights. Holding back on high beam switch and lights will stay on "high", however, release high-beam switch and lights go out.
Dt*: the contact stated the headlights were difficult to turn on/off. The headlights started cutting off intermittently while driving at night. The vehicle has been to the dealership four times. The first time the dealer said the alarm system prevented them from repairing the vehicle. The second and third times they could not duplicate the problem. The fourth time the body control module was replaced. After the fourth time, the headlights started flashing from low beam to high beam intermittently finally going completely off. This last time, all of the lights on the dash went out. Ten seconds later all of the lights returned as normal.
