Low coolant level. The 2.7l v6 engine is bad about this problem, even though the coolant reserviour tank shows full. At low rpm, the coolant sensor shows low temperature and no heat coming from the heater. When you raise the rpm level, the temperature gauge will raise to operating temperature and heat comes from the heater. The coolant system has air in it and needs to be bled. To bleed the cooling system, find the coolant bleed valve located next to the coolant temperature sensor. They are in the plastic housing at the top of the engine just left of the intake manifold as you are standing in front of the car after raising the hood. Attach a clear plastic hose to the top of the coolant bleed valve. Place the other end in the coolant reserviour or some other container. Open the coolant bleed valve and monitor the air bubbles in the coolant through the plastic line until all bubbles passing through the line stop. You may be required to bleed the system several times as air is trapped in different places and moves to the top of the engine as you drive.
Isn't it the same as the 2008? Simply push the door in to release it and again to close it....
I have a 2002 Chrysler Sebring convertible. If you turn off the ignition and remove the key while the headlights are on, then turn off the headlights, the headlights will stay on for 30 seconds and turn off. You can avoid this by turning the lights off before you turn off the car or by switching them on and off again.
The manual says to have it replaced between 60K and 66K and again at 120K to 130K
Well, first you need to find out what engine you really have... Chrysler never offered a 2.9L V6 in a sebring. Even today they are 2.7L. In '98 the V6 was a 2.5L, I know this because I own one. When you find out what engine you do have ask again and I'll likely be able to answer. Good luck
5 or 6qts after 5 check dipstick add 1/2 qt at a time check dipstick again till full
The Chrysler Sebring is the worst car on gas milage i have ever had and for being a 4 cylinder i will never buy one again I recently purchased a 2003 Chrysler Sebring, 4 cyl. 73,000 original miles, great condition inside and outside. I paid $5300! So far, it gets really good mileage! The only problem I have encountered, so far, is that, after idling for several minutes, the car dies out. Seems to be a common problem, regardless of the year. Also, when the car is below 1/2 tank of gas, the gauge doesn't read properly. I've run out of gas twice with no warning! Bummer!
I had the same problem 3 times on my '97 Sebring. Twice, I replaced the crank position sensor with the (lower-priced) after-market sensors. They worked for a while, about a year and they go bad again. Finally, I replaced it with a Chrysler part, and have had no problem since. I hate to say it... but for the difference in price, this is one part I would highly recommend spending the extra money.
I had one in a 1999 Sebring JXI. It would start flashing when the engine was hot and at idle. I removed the plug from the sensor and cleaned up the connections. It was good for about 6 months, but then started up again. I found that it was better to use 5-30 weight oil and now it only flashes when the oil is dirty.
Can someone help meh out asap
i have 163,000 on my 97 Sebring and it is still running strong except the alternator just went out. Then it will be a champ again!!!
Take it to a transmission shop. Depending on what you mean by front gasket, it will probably involve removing the transmission. Again depending on what you mean, it is most likely an indicator of a bigger problem.
I think I answered my own question. My left headlight recently died, so when I replaced the headlight suddenly the problem went away. I'll post again if the problem returns.
