2008 Grand Caravan 3.8 SXT
car stalled driving, or starter dead 6am,
IF runs is the Charge/battery/gen , cluster lamp off
1: the batter lugs clean and tight, first.
2: fuses good
3: stater motor dead/ (silent, clicks , chatters or?)
HEad lamps are first
they work even no key near the car they work even engine missing.
so when HL fails the battery is dead
no battery ever lasted 15 years, is it?
my wild guess is this is battery #2nd one failure day!
died at 6/7 years now again. ( common as nails)
or alternator is/was dead, and now the battery is dead
or just DISCHARGED
4: so call AAA TOW AND ASK FOR A JUMP
OR BUY YOUR OWN JUMPER CABLES AND JUMP START IT/
OR CALL MOBILE AUTO TECHS. YP.COM
ONCE STARTED WE CHECK THE ALTERNATOR NEXT.
OR IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN FAST.
CARS ARE COMPLEX TELL ALL THAT WORKS AND NOT, BOTH.
HEAD LAMPS DEAD KEY OFF AND ON?
ENGINE DEAD.?
STARTER DEAD? or clicks or chatters or works normal.?
CLUSTER LAMP SECURITY ACTS ODDLY? "IMMO "etc.
.cures
1: fuses blown we test them.
2: battery cables all 4 end lugs rusty or loose. (fix it)
In the event that no lights coming on in the dashboard and no other electrical buyers work, the battery could be totally dead or there is no association between the battery and the vehicle electrical framework. Check in the event that the battery terminals look tight. On the off chance that the battery is totally dead, kicking off might help.

I have a 2005 f150 fx4 have replaced battery every winter because when it gets cold the truck won't start, It is not the battery because dash lights, door chimes all work but truck won't even crank (dead). Ford insist that it is the battery.
The flashing key-inside-a-car means the anti-theft system is working properly. On page 84 of the 2009 Prius owners manual, the explanation indicates that a flashing key-inside-a-car is normal, and is desired. It should extinguish when the automobile is operating. It may be distracting, but it's a good thing!!
