I disconnected the + wire from the battery terminal and left it for a couple of days to reset the computer, That's not going to do anything . You never ever disconnect the positive cable untill the negative cable is disconnected first . An disconnecting for 1/2 hour would be enough .
my mechanic told me it was a glitch in the computer, If the check engine light is on there is a DTC - diagnostic trouble code . You need to find yourself a new mechanic .
If nothing happens when you turn the key to the start position U need to find out if anti-theft system can disable the starter circuit .If not check battery condition ,connections an cables doing a starter circuit voltage drop test . Also your vehicle has integrated power module , google that one . There is a starter motor relay in the under hood fuse box , do you know what a relay is ? If you find it , pull it out an look on the bottom , you will see four sets of numbers . 30 &87 .these are the load side (starter ) if you jumped those together with a paper clip or piece of wire . if the starter is good an the cables an connections are good the starter will spin the engine over . Pins 85 & 86 are the control of the relay circuit . 86 should have B+ voltage when trying to start the vehicle , 85 is from the PCM - engine computer . The PCM will ground this circuit internally , if it see's that the transmission is in park or neutral an if thier is no anti-theft system problems .
Which electronic control module did you replace ? The washer pump is controlled by the front control module . Located in the integrated power module . Fancy name for the under hood fuse / relay box.
Do you know what a wiring diagram is ? How to read one ? Here is a web site for free wiring diagrams . http://www.bbbind.com/free_tsb.html Enter vehicle info . year ,make ,model an the engine size . Under system click on body & accessories , then under subsystem click on wiper/washer .Then click search an a link will pop up . Click on it , second diagram you'll see you front washer pump an the module that controls it .There could be a short to ground on the brown wire , or a problem inside the fuse box .

Turn the key on , the fuel pump is computer controlled . The PCM - engine computer will energize the fuel pump relay for two seconds when you first turn the key on ! This primes the fuel system !

Did you by any chance get gas before this happened? If you overfill your gas tank sometimes it affects the engine but when the gas goes down some in the tank everything normallizes
I'm assuming fuses are all checked and good. Even though your grammar and spelling isn't. To me, it sounds like a voltage regulator... Or very possibly a short circuit in the ignition circuit. I'd check voltages from the alternator while the car is running. Then check voltages on the dashboard (center console controls should be easy to get to, the bezel just pops off after two screws at the bottom are removed). If the alternator voltage is good (12.5-15V is my guess), but the dashboard gets much less, then the voltage regulator may be having an issue. I'm not sure if that's an independent part or part of the ECM (the computer). If the dashboard gets nothing, I'm betting a short circuit on the alternator current... Check wiring at pinch points under the hood.
Hi: The height of the front versus rear is not important, remember that there is a limit in the weight that your van is able to load. If you transport heavy weight, change the rate of your springs or buy an SUV base in a truck (Durango, Explorer, Trail Blazer, etc. with truck chassis). Think about it. Good Look.
Hi Joe,
I found this information from Vince in another site, I hope helps you to find the problem. This information is for a 1997 Dodge Caravan, should be very similar to your 2003 minivan.
The back up light switch is on the side of the transmission by the transmission fluid cooler lines.
REMOVAL
Unscrew switch from transaxle case allowing fluid to drain into a container. Move selector lever to PARK, then to NEUTRAL position, and inspect to see the switch operating lever fingers are centered in switch opening.
INSTALLATION:
Screw the switch with a new seal into transaxle case and tighten to 24 foot lbs. Retest switch with the test lamp.
Add fluid to transaxle to bring up to proper level.
The back-up lamp switch circuit is through the two outside terminals of the three terminal switch.
To test switch, remove wiring connector from switch and test for continuity between the two outside pins.
Continuity should exist only with transaxle in REVERSE position.
No continuity should exist from either pin to the case.
I hope this helps. Good look!
I
