Re: 2002 Caravan Elect. Problems
yes imur40 this is exactly the problem i am a Chrysler tech and for 30 years and electrical is my specialty so i have seen alot and have developed many fixes also and this is one that i developed and it works excellent so if your interested you will need to purchase a 12v lamp of some kind i installed a license plate lamp assy with a lens to keep the bulb dry and cannot touch the bulb also and you must install one wire to a good clean ground and the feed or 12v and diode must go to this yellow wire this is the problem to find the proper yellow wire on the pdc you have to figure out wich is connector 3 and then pin3 should be a solid yellow wire or at the trans controller pin#8 should be solid yellow and you must verify this by checking voltage on a crank only once you find the wire that could be accessed at the lower part of pdc or at the trans controller then you add the feed wire and diode on there now the diode must be installed properly or this wont work at all diode only allows power one way so make sure the lamp lights up on a crank or it wont work it is fairly simple and it works or replace the complete harness
worth about $2500 -$3000 plus labour must gut the vehicle make sure you get the proper wire though as there are many wires under there and lots are yellow but its doable with an ohmmeter and tcm disconnected
