It's the P1282 that may cause a no start,the computer is detecting a problem with the fuel pump relay circuit.Look for corrosion on wiring and relay terminals.

Which engine do you have?

P1782 DODGE - 2/4-OD Pressure Switch Circuit Possible causes of this code are: - Low transmission fluid level (check level hot transmission only)
- Dirty transmission fluid (has transmission been serivced at least every 60,000 miles, fluid and new filter?)
- Faulty 2/4-OD Pressure Switch
- 2/4-OD Pressure switch poor electrical connection
- 2/4-OD Pressure switch circuit is open or shorted
P1782 DODGE Description The pressure 2/4-OD Pressure Switch is part of the pressure switch of the transmission. The pressure switch are located in the solenoid assembly. The switch provide input information to the Transmission Control Module (TCM). The switch will inform to the TCM is pressure exist in a specified hydraulic circuit. the TCM uses this information to verified that the solenoids are working or not.

I take help from online websites that have this service like helping in repair some like reliable-store have instant help.. others are a bit slow which I don't prefer... rest is up to u.. U can also get free manuals

The alternator is used to charge the battery. There is no reason to believe the replacement has caused the fuel utilization problem, or smoke from the tail pipe, or rough running engine. A good mechanic should be able to examine your engine and find the problem. White smoke could be valves or piston rings worn out. There are many things that cause rough running engine. Fuel mixture controls, fuel leak, faulty timing, there is a long list. Good luck.

I have to use a 15mm open/closed end wrench on the tensioner pulley. Use the closed end of the 15mm and pull toward you and use the end of a cresent wrench to use for additional torque. You can slip the belt over the fixed pulley (not the tensioner pulley). Give yourself more room by not using the hood bar and use instead a broomstick on the right side to prop the hood open. I recommend a goodyear gator belt too. Good Luck, you'll need it with a caravan. Its on the left side. its the easyest pully to see.

Hope this helps and please don't forget to rate.

It is located on the driver side of trans the speed sensor sticks out but the trans neutral sensor is called a range sensor next to it trans pressure sensor and those two point in the upward direction iy will be ouy of those two the right one.

Need to know will it go into and drive in all the other gears like it should?

One it was not built with ???

sorry not sure the 12v prob will help this swtich works on 5v off 3v unlock 1v lock single wire lock/unlock logic signals
I found wiring diagrams at
http://www.dodge.com/bodybuilder/2004/docs/wd/rswd/tc.pdf
it is 2004 but use the wiring diagrams to test the wires
(most likely to fail where they flex)
because it is using logic gates disconnect the plug at each end of the wire you are testing or the damn thing will find a few diffrent ways to trick you.

Talk to a mechanic that works on Chrysler Vans

Code p0700 is the TCM (transmission control module) giving a code because it does not like what it is seeing done in the transmission. If it is the only code that is set, then the problem could be anything related to the transmission. It could be a valve not working, too much clutch slippage, a bad servo etc. Have the code cleared and when it returns check to see if another code is with it. Meanwhile make sure the fluid is red and add an good transmission additive to the system.

Hook it up to a scanner and see what codes are in the system. Most part houses will check it at no charge but will not clear the code. Depending on what code is retrieved, depends on what you will do next. Some codes are soft codes that will not require immediate attention like small evap leak, while others will require immediate attention such as a p0302 which is a misfire on the number two engine cylinder.

Those two fuses are for front and rear power outlet. As you can see that relay has to be energized to get voltage at the fuses. You can use a test light to check for voltage at the fuses.

2005 Caravan I had the same problem with my van gauges bounceing, headlights not comeing on when the switch was turned on.I took a day and downloaded a wireing diagram from dodge and studyed it.GROUND PROBLEM dodge have several ground conections to the body then there is one MAIN BODY GROUND.This is most likely your problem it is easy for any back yard mechanic to fix.This main body ground is located under your battery box.You will have to remove the battery and then the battery box becarful of the battery sensor that is mounted in the bottom of the box.Also there is a hose that you will have to disconnect but dont try to remove it from the box remove it from above the box.After you get the battery and box out you will see a threaded stud with a black wire conected to it this will be rusted because of no antioxide grease applyed.You will have to remove the nut and wire connector clean both and the stud with wire brush or sandpaper.Put antioxide grease or if nothing else some vaseline to keep it from coroading again.put back together and see if this dosent fix your problem.It has been six weeks for me now.good luck.dont forget that neg battery terminal is the first one to disconect and the last to reconect.

I got this free Pdf manual from reliable-store for free and I don't think Ive visited a mechanic or fixya for help for more than 3-4 times out of the 20 times I fixed the chipper in these 4 yearsmust try this bitman and reliable-store. Both are good

get a Chilton repair manual,

As far as I know, Dodge and Chrysler vans discontinued use of fuseable links in 1999.
