97 t&c going dead while driving...please help

[Brad Thompson]

my 1997 T&C keeps going dead while driving it...the RPM's go to zero, then go back up...we put a new crank sensor on and that didn't fix it...
checked fuel pump pressure and it is fine...ran codes at local automotive store; it states the baro is out of range and hex code 20 no definition found...can anyone help? does this problem sound familiar to anyone?
please email any advice or suggestions to [email protected]

You might want to try running the codes using the key method:

Within a period of 5 seconds, cycle the ignition key ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON.

Count the number of times the MIL (check engine or service engine soon lamp) on the instrument panel flashes on and off. If it is not located at the bottom of the instrument cluster, then it is located in the information center on the dashboard above the instrument cluster.

The number of flashes represents the trouble code. There is a short pause between the flashes representing the 1st and 2nd digits of the code. Longer pauses are used to separate individual 2-digit trouble codes.

An example of a flashed DTC is as follows:

Lamp flashes 4 times, pauses, then flashes 6 more times. This denotes a DTC number 46.

Lamp flashes 5 times, pauses, then flashes 5 more times. This indicates a DTC number 55. DTC 55 will always be the last code to be displayed.

The MIL codes are listed here:

Did you replace the cam sensor as well as the crank sensor? That can cause it to go dead also.
