    Similar problem. Check engine light came on. Cycled ignition switch and got codes 12 and 41. Called dearlership, has to do with ignition coil, ECU or a bad wire somewhere in that system. Need more data on it to pinpoint problem.
    Voltage gauge bottomed out two days ago. Alternator and battery are fine.
    Any ideas?

Sounds like the alternator has stopped charging or has bad connection at battery

    when certain "data" falls out of its parameters, it will signal a lite on the instrument panel to warn driver.

I have a 2000 dodge Durango when it gets hot I have to wait about 10 to 15 minutes before it starts can't find the problem

Start with an error code if any read at your favorite auto parts store. How hot does it get? Possible so hot (cooling system problems) that the block sensor feeding the ECU is telling it there's a problem. A kind of safety system. Double check all cooling system components. Is the Water pump ok, or belt slipping? Battery and electrical system ok?

Drove through a puddle,power steering out and temp gauge on high, battery light on

I've seen it happen many times on the older Caravans, if you hit a really deep puddle, the splash can knock the accessory drive belt off of its pulleys. You can just gently pry the belt back on, consult a service manual for detailed installation directions.
