Discuss your third generation minivan here. Get tips and technical assistance specific to your era of Chrysler Minivan
I thought I'd post this information from the 2000 model year owner's manual which should be the most current information for the 3rd generation as it is the final year. Perhaps a global moderator can make this a sticky so that it can easily accessible to all who may need it. ...
I finally managed to figure out the clear information on how to retrieve the codes from the 1998-2000 Chrysler minivans, verses the 1996-1997 Chrysler minivans. There has been a lot of discussion, debate and confusion on the "key dance" with regards to the "how-to" and I finally have the official...
I loved the idea of the last poll, but the mileages are all too low.. over 70% in the highest.. Want to try it again? I do.. so.. here we go.. let's see what happens.
Our '96 Grand Voyager (3.3L automatic) is having an issue with the gauges dropping to zero while driving. Sometimes it's just one, but it can be two, or even all of them (temp, tach, speedo, gas). They don't stay "off" for very long, and I cannot duplicate it. My wife did say that the odometer...
So after nearly rear-ending someone last week, I am so sick of my brakes that I figured I'll bring up this much discussed topic again. I love my van, I keep it perfectly maintained, looking nice, etc etc. I love taking it on family trips and to Home Depot to load up on 2x4's and drywall. But I...
Let's try this again.....without the thread Hi-Jacking OK???? Today I plan to change the rear brakes.
I have a 2000 GC, the driver of which complains that the brake pedal is squishy and later the brake pedal is hard. Additionally, during normal braking, on dry pavement, the ABS unit fires up. The vehicle has a new master cylinder, and I replaced front pads and rotors 2 months ago, prior to...
Bought the Moog kit K90474 for the 98 T&C. The new bolts are too narrow for the strut/hub holes. (The old bolts are ~13 mm thread width.) Do the Moog kits come in different sizes? How do people get camber adjusted if they don't have the kits? I looked at 8 3rd gens in the yards and none of...
Hi, I've owned a 99 Grand Caravan for a few years and it's been a good car for the family. Had the transmission rebuilt last year at about 130k miles. Now my wife tells me the check oil light comes on after driving for a while. This is after a couple episodes of overheating due to low coolant....
Had the van to the service guys for the check engine light, and this is what it came back as: 174: The oxygen sensor is saying that the system air/fuel mix is far too lean (too much fuel is being added as a correction). They couldn't find anything other than fuel filler neck being corroded. ...
Hi everyone I was really surprised when the oil light went on, on the way from work. Its never come on before. When I went to check the dipstick, it was bone dry, so I topped up with more oil, only to discover that oil was leaking at a point between water pump and crankcase. This was at a...
Hi fellow members, Well, remember that new crank seal I popped in a few weeks ago along with the new oil pan gasket? I think the crank seal is leaking again. Geez, you go by the book, and take your time, and bam, it fails. Can this happen, guys?? Ever see this before? I mean, a NEW SEAL! I...
I just had a clockspring replaced on my 99 T&C. Now I have a horn and the airbag light is off but the cruise still doesn't work. Is this something I can troubleshoot myself? I have access to another 99 being parted out if i can figure out what part I need. Any advice?
Hi all, My 1996 Town and Country with 50K miles started to behave this way yesterday. Coming from a stop or a crawl and I step on the gas for a swift take off, there is this grinding noise on the left front side and it seems that something is stopping the car from going (but it's not stopped,...
A few people have run into the problem on their third generation van where the blower motor has suddenly ceased to work on all speeds except for the fifth/highest speed. This is due to the fact that the resistor block modules that are used to vary the current to the blower motors blows out and the...
I just bought this 96 T & C and discovered disconnected vacuum hoses and after reconnecting I went from 5 codes coming up down to 2 and it is no longer backfiring but is still running pretty rough. Any easy fixes? I'm going by Auto Zone tomorrow and let them scan it to see if anything else is...
Hate it when things come "unfixed". Friday night, I had cold A/C in my 98 GV 3.3 dual air....Saturday morning - nada, zilche, zero. The compressor will not cycle on; not even on defrost mode. I have 105 lbs static pressure in system; no moisture or leaks. Fuses are good. If I jumper wires from...
Hey I bought the Halo Projectors for my van and I installed HID on them but for some reason when I turn them on the majority of the light is aimed towards the ground and I cant find the knobs on the back of the headlight, well I think I did but I don't know how to turn them because there's these 4...
I have a Plymouth Voyager with a 2.4 engine in it. Anyways, completely randomly since this past monday, when I drive down the road the air bag light will light up, I'll get a chime, and then it goes out. Seems to be totally random. It may not go on the entire drive for 20 miles, it may go on...
Does anyone have any experiance in purchasing the Koyo replacement radiator? I see only one vendor carrying it however it has a limited life time warrenty, so any thoughts on this?
On Friday night I pulled the side cover off the transmission to seal a leak. Figured out pretty quick that the only way to do it right is to drain the transmission if you wish to use the factory recommended RTV sealant. There is a steady trickle of transmission fluid running out the bottom. No...
