I took my 2001 town & country to the mechanic to get the check engine light shut off..after he did this i drove the van for less than 5 minutes when the front wipers started going..then the back wipers then the headlight on one side started flashing and the signal light on one side started blinking..really tired of this..how can it be fixed?

    I have seen the ECM cause this. It can be reflashed to correct this sometimes.

    Actually, it is the Front Control Module (FCM) that may need to be reprogrammed. Check with your local dealership.They have the diagnostic equipment necessary to check the software revision and reprogram is necessary.
