Why cannot anyone shoot a straight answer on why a Dodge Caravan starts up, quit
What is your question?
I have a Dodge Caravan that will start up and run and quit. Then after i start it up i have to accelerate it to get it to run at idle. Now, i start it and put it in drive gear and it hesitates and stalls out, quits running. I then start it up and it shifts out fine if i nail it but as soon as i let off the accelerator it will quit. I start it back up and it will run rough and i take off it jerks like mad and then shifts out and idles in gear and dies out. Then, all of a sudden it goes back to normal again until it starts all over again. This last time the RPM gauge wound over the peg and is stuck now. The speedometer went crazy and would not register right and then all of sudden it works ok again, but the rpm is stuck and will not go back because of the pin in the housing. I get this TCM code but where is this problem? I am sure some one knows and if i find out i will post everything about it so that others will walk right straight toward the problem and solve because others out there just fill others with non-sense. No one needs a whole lot of lies. If this code shows a memory failure or whatever in the TCM then was it the culprit and where is the culprit located? It is and most likely simple. Give someone a break and tell the truth about this dangerous condition that maybe has killed innocent persons on the road dying out at 60 miles an hour and no power sterring or brakes. Dodge, you are a terrorist.
