Hi folks, I have a 2005 town and country minivan, I pull the fuse and it lasts for about a week, Then i have to pull the fuse again leave it out for a few minutes, then i get about another week,does anybody have the same problems or any suggestions,thanks

Are you pulling the IOD fuse and is it blowing after a week?

thanks for the reply, The iod fuse does not blow, i think it just resets the computer, i leave it out for a few minutes put it back in and everything works, but it only lasts for a few days,thanks

Can you go into some detail? What are the locks doing/not doing?

Ok. Yes the IOD fuse will reset the BCM. You most likely have a BCM on it's way out unless you're lucky enough to find a poor connection at it's connectors. Try disconnecting the negative battery cable for 2-3 minutes. The BCM has other power sources.

Thanks rip for the reply, yes i have tried disconnecting the negative battery cable, and its lasts about the same time as pulling the fuse,I was looking through other forums and other people having the problem say they took it to the chrysler dealer and they plug it into there computer and reprogram it, but i am out of the warranty period and have the feeling that they would say the BCM is bad when all it needs is reprogramming, Sorry for not replying sooner, was on my seasonal trip from Florida to NY

at the dealership we flash the bcm and charge the customer 1/2hr
