More than likely, it's your BCM or Body Control Module. It's the main computer that controls everything except the engine and the airbags. It is SO COMMON that these go out -- and they cost in the neighborhood of $750 -- that some have joked that that BCM stands for Bring Cash Money. The gages in my 97 T & C are intermittant, and the "service engine soon" light is almost always on. This started about 18 months ago. One silly question. Do you use ethanol-blend gas? It may be only a coincidence, but if ours is malfunctioning, we give it a couple of tankfuls of pure gas, and it works fine again for a while. Again, may only be coincidence. radioboy75@hotmail.com

I had the same problem...it was the "computer". I had to hit the dash for about a year, then it just stopped working. It was around 800.00 to fix. You need to do at a Chrysler dealer as they have to input the codes that your local mechanic will not have.
