how do you install a car kit horn connected directly the car battery with a button switch?
don't. go get your clock spring replaced. horn will work, cruise will work and you will have no air bag light.
it is a free fix at the dealer. a 98 has a recall on this.

When our van is started cold, we can back it down the driveway fine, but when we shift to Drive, it acts like it's in neutral. And after a long wait, a rev of the accelerator pedal, and maybe some jockeying back to park and drive a couple times on the column, it lurches into drive and we take off down the road. After 15 or 20 seconds in the first gear, it tried to shift to 2nd (automatic) and it slips back to neutral (column still on "D", engine revs because the foot is on the pedal, but we are coasting. More jockeying of the shifter, and more waiting, and it hits the drive gear again, and off we go. It does this every time, for 3 or 4 times each day when we first drive it. Just started this winter, it's parked inside, but still 45 degrees in the garage at night. Maybe trans fluid low? Don't see any leaks, no recent repairs.
I got the exact same problem as mike d ready.
i have replaced the 2 tranny sensors over the years. yjey can cause the same symptoms. but the sensor problems came on all at once.
bad shops tell many dodge van owners irs te tranny and its really just the sensers.

why doesn't my dashboard gauges work . The radio and dashboard backlight work, but not the odometer, fuel gauge, and speedometer.
I just fixed this on my '96 Voyager. The problem was caused by a loose pin where the wiring harness plugs into the circuit board behind the gauges. It takes a little work to get the instrument cluster out of the car and then some soldering skills. Look for where the plug pins are attached to the back of the circuit board. One pin on mine showed a little circle shaped crack. Re solder the loose pin and you are good to go. Actually I re soldered all 13 pins just in case.

1998 plymouth voyager gauges on dashboard not working(speedometer,fuel gauge,temp. gauge etc)and ABS light is on.ABS system working properly+gauges will start working for day or two and will disapear again with no obvious reason.if anybody can help please
well start by checking all fuses but it sounds like a bad ground wire somewhere on the car

where is the crankshaft position sensor located in a 1998 plymouth voyager? also can i get to it from the top or bottem?
Guessing it's a 6 cyl, 3.0L, but should be located on transaxle housing above vehicle speed sensor.

How to replace blower motor 1998 plymouth voyager ?
it is located behind and below the glove box,you might want to remove the glove box assembly to see it easier,
there are four screws holding a blower motor cover you to take off first,now remove the screws holding the blower motor up,disconnect the motor wires.
if your changing this because you think its bad,you should test the blower motor wires with a test light with the key on and blower switch turned on.if you have power in the wires,then it is bad.
but if you have no power in wires it could be blower motor resister,or switch.

1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager.........Dashboard instruments quit working and don't light up. Speedo, tach, fuel gauge, temp gauge, and mileage indicators and lights for same stopped working. ABS light stays on. Car starts and runs well. What's happening?
You have some wiring problems shorting out that is coming from the dash board so if you or anyone you know how to use a multimeter to check the wireing harnesses plus check any connectors that might be just very touching the connector of dashboard which means a bad connection to dashboard.

instrument panel works off and on also when this happens battery goes dead
Do a google search for "1998 voyager instrument lcuster solder" and you will find an abundance of posts regarding the soldered joints on the main wiring harness connector on the back of your instrument cluster. If the behaviour is at all erratic and unpredictable, or hitting the dash makes the gauges come back to life, then you are about 99.9% sure it is the solder problem. It takes about 8 minutes to remove the instrument cluster (okay maybe 15), and about 2 minutes to remove the circuit board. By examining the solder joints of the main connector with a magnifying glass, you will probably see cracked or corroded solder on them. Briefly reheat each solder joint with a soldering iron to re-flow the solder. Your erratic gauge behaviour should now be history.
