Dodge Grand Caravan

Alignment of the latch strikes, door tracks, flush fit, and height, can be pretty involved. Define 'fix'. Mine was making a terrible, metal-tometal grinding sound when used. I had to replace the top slider (I think there are three - one on top, and one in the middle and , of course, one on the bottom -- so check them all!). It was a bit of a bear to do by myself, but it was worth it. The part cost me about $30. If it is stuck shut try this. I have a 1991 Aerostar that had the same problem. You have to remove the inside door panels. follow the door mechanism from the front to the back (You won't be able to see it at the back) What I did was to cut a small hole (1-2 inches) near the back of the door to be able to see the rod. I found that were the rod connects to an "L" shaped part the "L" was bent outwards (toward the outside of the door). By bending it back towards the inside of the door I was able to get the door open. I had the same problem on MY 91 Aerostar and that was the fix it needed.....and gave me an excuse to buy the Dremel I always wanted.....lol. After cutting the access hole I was able to see the rod was bent. Thanks!

The fuel tank capacity is 18 gallons

1985 to 1995 have 1 1996 on up have 2

It is located in the back of the motor directly below and behind where the air intake boot attaches to the aluminum intake. there are two bolts that hold it on and one electrical connection. if your check engine light is on, this may be the easiest and most likely thing to try and repair. over time, the EGR valve gets gunked up with a lot of carbon and exhaustcrap that causes a flow restriction. take the valve off and give it a good cleaning with gumout or any carb cleaner. also be sure to give the mating surface and ports a good cleaning too. hopefully this will turn the light off and save you about $200 on a bill from the mechanic. replacemment valves are cheap for most caravans ($60). I've seen them cost over $160 for some cars and trucks. Good luck

There is a service port on the low pressure side hose. It will be comming out of the compressor on the passengers side of the vehicle. Should be sticking upwards, and will be the easy to access one.

The code for a P0171 means the system is to lean.Check for a vacume leak first.You could also have low fuel pressure or a bad O2 sensor.

there are two bolts one is under the power steering pump and a pain to get to it takes a 15 mm deep well and a long handled ratchet, then you have to use a wrench when the ratchet bottoms out. Once that is removed jack up car and on the bottom side of the starter ther is another bolt either a 17 mm or 15 mm. this one is pretty easy to remove. then drop starter and take off 2 nuts that hold on wires. make sure to put wires back on the same terminals they came off of or the car wont run and you will have to pull starter again

If the chime won't stop on your Chevy Silverado, you can remove the chime fuse in order to make it stop. Open the fuse panel and choose the fuse that is marked 'chime module.'

The 2005 Dodge Grand-Caravan has overhead valves (OHV).

The 2014 Dodge Grand-Caravan has a drag coefficient of 0.32 Cd.

well i have one and its a 98 and still running

You need to have it checked for codes. You could have a cam sensor or crank sensor problem.

this means there is something going on with the engine. take it to a auto parts store and they will scan for the codes, for free. to tell you which curcuit its in. its a possibility that its a bad tps, or throttle cable, etc. God bless!

use tools

For my 1995 Dodge Grand Caravan with a 3.3L engine

The most important point here is that on a 3.3L engine it has to come out underneath. The main secret the store manuals don't tell you is that you have to remove the one bolt that holds the flexible rubber exhaust clamp to the middle of the body underneath; you can now push on the exhaust in the middle and this will allow it to flex over enough to barely be able to remove the alternator between the body and the exhaust. As an additional measure for removal room, i removed the three metal nuts that hold the catalytic converter heat shield in place under the passenger floor pan. Everything else is pretty standard; remove battery cable, take off wire connectors, use breaker bar with socket to unload tension on serpentine belt pulley & belt comes right off, two bolts from underneath for metal guard, lastly two bolts for the alternator. Just a final tip, make sure to use the new nuts that come with the rebuilt alternator & be very careful not to over tighten the wire connections; unfortunately, I've found the replacement metals they use are softer than the original and it takes nothing to twist off a connector, especially an old dirty nut reused.

Look for a large rubber tube attached to the manifold port located on the top left side (passenger) rising up and and then curving down to the rear valve cover pcv port. It is a squeeze, but work the hose off the pcv port, and "voila" the pcv valve is INSIDE the port. Pull it out with its attached grommet. Do not attempt to clean. Replace, only, and save the receipt for the engine warranty. This engine can burn oil if it is a valve seal or manifold plenum proplem.

Remove ground cable. Safely lift vehicle; place on jackstands. Remove any brace that obstructs. Remove the 2-3 bolts that hold the starter in place and as you drop the starter, remove the wires noting there location. Reverse process. Done.

Trouble code P0700 means:Transmission control system malfunction

Not sure what you're asking here.

You can't put 16 inch tires on 15 inch wheels (or vice versa), hence the different sizes.

You can, however, put 16 inch wheels on a vehicle that normally has 15 inch wheels. You just need to ensure that the bolt pattern and center holes are exactly the same measurements and you may need to use a lower profile tire to achieve the proper tire-to-wheelwell clearances.

oil pressure sending unit could need replacing, or you could have low oil level. I recently had to replace my sending unit after putting too much lucas oil stabilizer in.
