Problem overview

Some Chrysler Aspen owners report experiencing clicking noises from the engine that may be linked to clogged sunroof drain tubes, which can lead to control module issues. These clogged tubes can cause water to back up into the cabin, potentially resulting in malfunctions of the control module. If the drainage tubes are obstructed with debris or not functioning properly, it can exacerbate these problems. Regular maintenance checks on the sunroof drain tubes are recommended to prevent clogs and subsequent control module complications. Understanding the common causes of sunroof leaks, such as these clogs, can help owners diagnose and address issues before they escalate. It is advisable for owners to address any clicking noises promptly to prevent further complications with the control module.
