fuse and relay should be in fuse box in engine compartment , the shut/off should be in trunk on lt or rt side

Here's a video on your relay. Chrysler Cooling Fan Relay

it sounds like the brake servo isn't working but you should still have some better brakes than you dascribe so i would also check the master cylinder , whick is connected directly to the servo , quick check ,engine running remove, brake fluid resovoir cap, pump brake pedal and get some to look into the fluid resovoir and tell you is there are air bubbles or not , if bubbles most likely a seal has blown if no bubble then most likely a mechanical part of the brake system ie master push rod at fault , either way i'd get a mechanic to check as you dont take chance's with brakes

put key in ignition turn key to start position then off then to start then off then start and leave on. count the check engine light flashes. the first number will be a long flash then the numbers after will be short flashes, then a pause and then the next code will flash with the first number a long flash then followed by short flashes. count the flashes. if the first flash is a single flash and the next flash is say 3 quick flashes then this is code 13. these are a 4 number code system like 1013 is the same as a code 13. I hope you understand as its difficult until you get the hang of it. Chrysler has a code at the beginning to indicate codes starting and one at the end to indicated codes ending. and will repeat the cycle 3 times. it maybe easier to get them pulled using a code reader.

the filter is located on top of the fuel tank.

what is it your asking about. this is not enough info.

gps tracker should be plugged into ob2 port trace wires out one by one and disconnect if the spliced into a wire unplug it if a wire is cut to loop through tracker first remove and reconnect cut wires recommend soldering and heat shrinking cut wires

If the thermostat is not opening, the engine will keep getting hotter as you drive. You could be low on coolant and have air pockets in the system which would cause the temp gauge to not be accurate. Is the radiator fan coming on when the tank is boiling ?

Stuck cable

Did you take pictures while removing the originals? It's always a good habit. Below are the instructions you need to follow. Your own pics are very helpful when doing a big job like this.

1. Disconnect negative battery (1) cable.
2. Drain cooling system.
3. Remove upper intake manifold.
4. Remove cylinder head covers, crankshaft vibration damper, and timing chain cover.

CAUTION: When aligning timing marks, always rotate engine by turning the crankshaft. Failure to do so will result in valve and/or piston damage.

1. Align crankshaft sprocket timing mark to mark on oil pump housing (2). The mark on oil pump housing is 600 ATDC of #1 cylinder.

CAUTION: When the timing chain is removed and the cylinder heads are still installed, DO NOT rotate the camshafts or crankshaft without first locating the proper crankshaft position. Failure to do so will result in valve and/or piston damage.

1. Remove primary timing chain tensioner retainer cap (2) and tensioner (1) from right cylinder head.

1. Disconnect and remove camshaft position sensor (4) from left cylinder head.
2. Remove timing chain guide access plugs (3) from cylinder heads.

NOTE: When camshaft sprocket bolts are removed, the camshafts will rotate in a clockwise direction.

1. Starting with the right camshaft sprocket, remove the sprocket attaching bolts. Remove camshaft damper (1) (if equipped) and sprocket.
2. Remove left side camshaft sprocket attaching bolts and remove sprocket.
3. Remove lower chain guide (7) and tensioner arm (8).
4. Remove the primary timing chain (5).
5. Remove crankshaft sprocket (6).

INSTALLATION

1. Inspect all sprockets (4,9,11) and chain guides (2,5,10). Replace if worn.
2. For crankshaft sprocket installation procedures Refer to CRANKSHAFT SPROCKET.
3. If removed, install right and left side short chain guides (11). Tighten attaching bolts to 28 Nm (250 inch lbs.) .
4. Align crankshaft sprocket timing mark to the mark on oil pump housing (3).

NOTE: Lubricate timing chain and guides with engine oil before installation.

1. Place left side primary chain sprocket onto the chain so that the timing mark is located in-between the two (plated) timing links (1).

1. Lower the primary chain with left side sprocket through the left cylinder head opening.

NOTE: The camshaft sprockets can be allowed to float on the camshaft hub during installation.

1. Loosely position left side camshaft sprocket over camshaft hub.
2. Align timing (plated) link to the crankshaft sprocket timing mark (3).
3. Position primary chain onto water pump drive sprocket (10).
4. Align right camshaft sprocket timing mark to the timing (plated) link on the timing chain (8) and loosely position over camshaft hub.
5. Verify that all chain timing (plated) links are properly aligned to the timing marks on all sprockets.
6. Install left side lower chain guide (2) and tensioner arm (5). Tighten attaching bolts to 28 Nm (250 inch lbs.) .

NOTE: Inspect O-ring on chain guide access plugs before installing. Replace O-ring as necessary.

1. Install chain guide access plugs to cylinder heads. Tighten plugs to 20 Nm (15 ft. lbs.) .

NOTE: To reset the primary timing chain tensioner, engine oil will first need to be purged from the tensioner.

1. Purge oil from timing chain tensioner using the following procedure:

1. Place the check ball (2) end of tensioner into the shallow end of Special Tool 8186 (3).
2. Using hand pressure, slowly depress tensioner until oil is purged from tensioner.

1. Reset timing chain tensioner using the following procedure:

1. Position cylinder plunger (4) into the deeper end of Special Tool 8186 (3).
2. Apply a downward force until tensioner is reset.

NOTE: If oil was not first purged from the tensioner, use slight finger pressure to assist the center arm pin of Special Tool 8186 to unseat the tensioner's check ball.CAUTION: Ensure the tensioner is properly reset. The tensioner body (4) must bottom against the top edge of Special Tool 8186 (3). Failure to properly perform the resetting procedure may cause tensioner jamming.NOTE: Inspect the tensioner O-ring (2) for nicks or cuts and make sure the snap ring (1) is correctly installed, replace as necessary.

1. Install the reset chain tensioner (1) into the right cylinder head.
2. Position tensioner retaining plate (2) and tighten bolts (1) to 12 Nm (105 inch lbs.) .

1. Starting at the right cylinder bank, first position the camshaft damper (1) (if equipped) on camshaft hub, then insert a 3/8 square drive extension with a breaker bar into intake camshaft drive hub. Rotate camshaft until the camshaft hub aligns to the camshaft sprocket and damper attaching holes. Install the sprocket attaching bolts and tighten to 28 Nm (250 inch lbs.) .
2. Turn the left side camshaft by inserting a 3/8 square drive extension with a breaker bar into intake camshaft drive hub and rotate camshaft until the sprocket attaching bolts can be installed. Tighten sprocket bolts to 28 Nm (250 inch lbs.).
3. Rotate engine slightly clockwise to remove timing chain slack, if necessary.

1. Activate the timing chain tensioner by using a flat bladed pry tool to gently pry tensioner arm towards the tensioner slightly. Then release the tensioner arm. Verify the tensioner is activated (extends).

1. Install camshaft position sensor (2) and connect electrical connector.
2. Install the timing chain cover, crankshaft vibration damper, and cylinder head covers.
3. Install upper intake manifold.

NOTE: After installation of a reset tensioner, engine noise will occur after initial start-up. This noise will normally disappear within 5-10 seconds.

1. Fill cooling system.

You have the wrong piston #1 TDC for #1 valves are closed and spark plug fires like a shot gun.

You may have loose or corroded terminals at the battery, that will affect the alternator's ability to charge, affect all electrical components including the radio. So you end up with radio and starting problems.

Your fuel filter is located in the top of the fuel pump assembly. fuel pump assembly is located in the tank.

Disconnect the shifting linkage from the transmission. It should be easy to remove the nut that secures it to the shaft. If you can now move the shifter lever (don't forget to apply the brakes) then the transmission needs work. If it cannot move, then the problem could be with the ignition key switch. Also try turning the steering wheel. Is it locked or free? There may also be a problem with the linkage from the brake pedal. Good luck.

check wiring to the right side, Chrysler runs the wiring to a clip that may have come loose

There is a special body filler for bumpers and it is made to flex don't use fiberglass or bondo

Sounds like a leaking fuel injector. Could be facing a under the hood fire in near future if not fixed. Not safe to drive until fixed. Have it towed or hire a mobile mechanic. Don't drive it. Don't start it, unless you know what you're doing.

Well the injector fuse gets power from the ASD relay. Have you checked it yet ?

good luck with that unless you find a wiring diagram, look for the rest of the wires may be they are some where can you go to a junk yard? there youll find your answers
