My 2006 town and country dash lights just shut off - While driving Dashboard lights shut off. I have no speedometer , blinkers or brakelights! Back break lights are not working. Radio still works though. Checked fuses and turned Van on and off, but the dashboard still does not light up. What could be the problem?

This going to sound really weird but....... I worked for many many years and i still try to keep up on things, that said, I learned through very reliable mechanics that where the wires crome through the drivers door, inside of that rubber tube there developes a break in the wires causing the aforementioned problem, I cannot guarantee this is your issue, but if it is it'll save you a lot of headaches and money diagnosing it. And btw if you develop a hard start issue I can tell you how to fix that one to, from personal experience on my 2008. Leaky injectors that are way less expensive at Chrysler than the aftermarket ones.

SOURCE: My car alarm will not reset and the issue with problems below

If you (hopefully) have the key fob (keyless entry remote), try closing the doors, then lock and unlock using the keyless entry. This should reset the security so the vehicle will start.

SOURCE: 2002 town & country dash, instrument lights do

Not likely a bulb problem if they are all out. Check the dimmer, Check the owners manual to see what else is powered by the same fuse. See if anything else on the same circuit is not operating. If it is a fuse you probably have a spare fuse in the fuse panel. If not - a small box of fuses can be purchased for a few dollars.

SOURCE: rear windshield wiper blade doesn't hit rear

the pivot pin must be rusted to the point it does not want to move, try lubing it with wd40 or equivalent lube,at the bottom of the wiper arm just before the bolt that holds it to the car is the pivot point.that's where it has to be lubed.

Testimonial: " Thank you for the information. Will give it a try."

No dash lights when headlights are turned on. Everything works fine on my vehicle EXCEPT today the panel lights don't work. Turn signals, hazard blinker, oil gauge, rpm gauge, speedometer, drive shift...

there is a regulator for the display brightness, you may have it turn'd down or it has stopped working;. it controls the brightness at which the dash lights are. usually has a speedo sign on it. goes up and down. it works with the main light and is conecter to them on the same lighting board if it has gone then a new light swtch control switch will be needed.

Turn signals on 2001 Chrysler Town & Country cause dash lights to come on and speedometer & odometer quit working

I would say its probably a short or a ground problem at the turn switch or a wire in that area. you need a test light and probably a multi meater and some nohow a ground or wireing problem can even drive a master teck crasy.

Engine will start, but all the dash warning lights come on, then the engine shuts off. if i tap under the dashboard on the passenger side before engine shuts off, most the time it will keep running.

Sounds like you have a loose connection in the instrument cluster in the dash. There were a lot of Town & Country owners having engine issues related to a faulty instrument cluster. The security system is connected through that somehow and if it loses power, like it sounds yours does, it would shut the car off even while driving. The fact that you can tap on the dashboard and keep it working leads me to believe it's the instrument cluster.

Dash Display and Blinkers going out/ HZD Fuse burrning out

sounds like a short somewhere. you need to get a diagram on the wiring system and start from there. good luck...... could also be in fuse box because one fuse dosent run all those things. usually instrument panal lights have own fuse as do brake lights and hazard lights and gauges

Turn signal does not work sometimes

If the problem occurs on either side, the blinker relay is getting tired.
These are mostly located under the dashboard and may be in a cylindrical can plugged into a mating connector.

If it is happening only on one side, you may have a corroded lamp socket or the bulb itself.
When the standard thermal blinker relay is used and a problem with contact or a complete bulb failure occurs, your dash indicator will blink more rapidly than usual since the blinker relay is dependent on having a certain amount of current flowing through it which controls the blink frequency.
