problem #5

May 172003

Grand Voyager 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 80,000 miles
Fuel gauge intermittent non-functional. Increasingly more frequent engine dying episodes, then is able to restart after 5-10 minutes rest period. Mil lamp code reads battery power disconnect to PCM during previous 40 engine cranks. I suspect a faulty relay( switch) component that fails at certain voltages and after equilibration rest period its value returns to normal and restarts (allows current to pass through from battery. Source to PCM and into ignition circuit).

I have had problems with this vehicle ever since I bought it. I took the van to a garage for the problem I'm reporting and they said it was a problem with the vehicle losing grounding and burning out the PCM(?), BCM(?). they also told me that this is not a part that is manufactured for replacement, you have to pull the defective one out and send it in to be repaired. This will take anywhere from 2 to 5 days and the cost is $1,500. Add to this, 2 to 5 days of a rental car in order to be able to commute to and from work. Never will I buy another Plymouth. Ever.
