I have an 01 Stratus and this issue is caused by a broken clock spring in the steering column. From what I gather it's rather expensive to replace but I'm checking to see if there's a Dodge recall on it. If not, it could possibly be covered under a Federal warranty being the airbags wouldn't deploy if you were in an accident. Check into it before you pay to get it fixed. Hope this helps out. You need to have the system checked for trouble codes. There are many things that can turn on warning lights.
Most likely it a broken or malfunctioning clock spring in your steering column
Have the code read, repair the cause, and clear the code with a scan tool.
the cruise control is broken....
If the cause of the code was fixed the light would have gone off on its own.
Faulty air bag, see the dealer!!! It could also mean there is a faulty airbag clockspring, this is located in the hub of the steering wheel, and can cause an open circuit which allows the light to stay on. This is covered in a recall issued by Dodge. The horn and/or cruise control could also be affected. I know this because we recently (03/26) purchased a '99 Dodge Caravan. The airbag light was on. We then noticed that the horn was nonfunctional. After doing some research online I found information on the recall, it also mentioned that the cruise control. Lo and behold, the next time I drove it, the cruise control didn't work. I contacted my local Dodge dealer and the problem was fixed at no charge!! The airbag light is off, the horn and cruise control both work.
Yes, it can cause the cruise to surge.
Could be as simple as a blown fuse. Alot of crawler guys pull the fuse when playing and the light comes on.
There is a "clockspring" in the steering column that is probably broken. When the clockspring breaks, the airbag light comes on. The "clockspring" takes the place of the old slip rings and spring loaded contacts used in older cars and is used to transfer circuits from the steering wheel to the stationary column making the airbag, horn and speed control operational. To replace involves removing the airbag. Take it to the dealer.
yes.tcc will not work corect or cruise control
on some cars the cruise control cuts out on its own in Case you have fallen a sleep
A malfunction in the range sensor could cause the cruise to be inoperative.A malfunction in the range sensor could cause the cruise to be inoperative.
No , absolutely not ( if you hit a puddle , which will slow the car down , the cruise control willtry to accelerate the car to maintain the set speed )It's not recommended to use the cruise control in the rain. Normally, you use the cruise control on the highways. When it's raining you need complete control on the car and be fully alert.( NO ) if you hit a puddle that slows the car down then the cruise control will accelerate the carbetter not it could cause the car to accelerate at the wrong time and cause loss of control
