  • Anonymous Sep 22, 2008

    Have a 2001 grand caravan and am having very similar situation. asd relay clicking, light will come on, fuel pump trying to work (clicking) ac relay clicking. Van was running fine but was turned off for a few moments then wouldnt start. Replaced ASD relay, starter is fine, all wires are fine, getting proper volts to everything. Starter sounds a little funny. Am leaning towards ignition but cant waste money so need to ensure i am on the right path, otherwise considering computer. Any advice would be welcomed. Seem to have found a lot of people with this problem but not many answers. Please help...

    check for a faulty starter relay but I suspect that the problem is in the ignition switch where the contacts inside the switch are not making contact

    2004 Dodge Caravan with 3.3 ltr eng. Won't start,

    This sounds like a classic bad connection either at the battery or engine ground. Check and recheck all your connections and be sure they are clean and tight.
