problem #3

Nov 112009

Grand Caravan Sport 3.3L V6 Flex Fuel

  • Automatic transmission
  • 121,000 miles

Was able to very easily replace the "heater resistor pack" located behind the glove box. Remove glove box by simply squeezing the sides until the tabs allow the entire glove box to be lowered. The module is installed against the firewall - unplug the wires, remove 2 screws, replace unit.

Rant: 2nd time this has occurred on this vehicle. First time the dealership fixed it (not under warranty) for $75, $25 for the part and $50 labor. I bought this one at a big box auto supply place for $17 and it took all of 5 minutes to install myself.

Another Heater Resistor Gone bad The dealer wanted over $300.00 to repair and I took it to a independent auto repair service. They charged $70.00 Dealer was Galeana Dodge In Centerline Mich right where I bought it.
