Guess what?!?!?
It worked!!!! I was "out and about" 2 days ago, had all three kids with me and when we tried to go home...van won't start. So I took my fists and pounded it one time as hard as I could and just like magic the guages came on and it started and ran! THANKS PAUL!!
I might still be stuck there if you hadn't shared your knowledge!
The latest news is that I traded it in on a Honda. I really lost all confidence in the van and the service departments at the dealerships in my area.
