My 98 dodge caravan would cut off while I was driving. The problem seemed to be the grounding wire that is connected to my positive battery pole. After the wire was regrounded the van will crank up but will stall out when put in gear and trying to drive off. I changed the fuel pump, fuel filter, map sensor and throttle position sensor. My van still stalls out and cuts off when I try to accelerate. What can the problem be?

Check fuse F6.
F6 20 Amp Yellow 12 Volt Out Ignition or Battery
Also look for a fuse that is part of the positive battery connection.

I would double check all your connections. Make sure all wires are insulated and not grounding.

Hi mate start at the easiest point which will be to check your EARTH to make sure everything is earthed.

Ok without all the matter tech gold five star blah blah- just disconnect the battery ground remove the panel under the steering wheel locate the yellow wire connector remove the safety clip then unplug the connector. Do not cut the wire
Any static discharge can deploy the air bag so just unplug it and reassemble the dash and connect battery. Thi doesn't not clear a warning light

The casing on the starter is always the negative. One pole on the starter is for power and the smallest pole is for the ignition wire to link to, or it can be a plug on some cars and trucks. One of the larger poles will have a wire that goes into the starter that is not the pole that you should ever put the cable from the battery on it will be the pole that does not have a wire on it.


As seen in this pic terminal M has the wire that goes to the starter that should never have a wire atached to it from the battery. Terminal S is the ingition wire, and terminal B is the pole for the battery cable. The holes for the casing are the ground from the motor to the starter. I hope that this helps you.

For this one check the battery terminals and posts are shiny clean and tight . Have a load test done on the battery to check for faulty cell. check condition of alternator drive belt and check alternator out put.

check the wires at the sensor connector for loose connection,and corrosion.read voltage with volt meter,check ground wire to ensure good ground connection.If all is ok,replace part.

You may have lost a major ground. The places to look are as follows; 1. Check the main battery to engine ground(black). 2. Check the ground wire pigtail that splits off from the main groun to the engine. This wire will connect to the inner fenderwell on the passenger side. 3.Ckeck for a braided flat wire without coating running from the firewall to the engine intake manifold, usually the bolt that mounts thios wire to the engine is one of the intake mounting bolts. Good luck, Dana

loose battery connections or bad ground connection

I had the same issue with my dodge caravan and after several attempts by the dealer to fix it, it turned out to be a broken wire. They replaced the relay and it would work for a while and then go blank again. Have the wires checked thoroughly.
