Replace the charging relay

  • Anonymous May 30, 2012

    @p4str4woo, I also am having this same problem, and researched on where this "charging relay" may be and could not find anything in the manufactures manual that indicates where this relay may be. @arlene_royce, did you ever have any luck in coming to a solution for this issue?

Most likely you have a bad connection, or relay. the diming switch relay seems to be a problem for a lot of people. I rebuilt mine, still working ok 10? years later. (20 year old car). Follow wire from headlight back to relay probably on the passenger side of engine compartment (just guessing).

I have a 2004 dodge stratus 2.4 dual overhead cam. When driving down the road, bell goes off, check engine light comes on, and it's like I'm driving on limp mode, when going over 2000 rpm's, there's a severe stutter. After getting code for light it points to cam shaft sensor, which i changed. I also changed crank shaft sensor. After all of this was done, drove great for about 30 miles and the same thing happened all over again. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
