Check for loose dirty battery terminals /dirty loose earth points. This is an indication of incomplete electrical circuit

The BCM (body control module) is the problem, have it replaced, this is a common issue on your van.

Sounds like you have pushed the brake peddle to the floor after you changed the pads. This can cause major probs in the master cylinder. The brake warning light should come on if this is the trouble. Frankster016

You may have already checked this but there is a switch located close to the overhead button that will disengage the door buttons for child safety, is that turned off?

They are not hard to replace. Just remember to PROP the lift gate open so it won't hit you.

You are on the right track. That's the problem.

The back light on the radio is probably bad and sounds like there is an issue with your ABS system. When the light is lit your ABS is disabled. Does not mean that your brakes will not work, it means that your anti-lock brakes will not work.

2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee The ABS light comes on and stays on. What does this mean?

You may have a faulty sensor, most cases a wheel speed sensor, the light is on warning you that you do not have abs basically your car will stop like an old 70's model car before abs. abs atands for anti lock brakes, it keeps your brakes from locking up under extreme braking.
