1999 Chrysler 300M 3.5L (VIN # 2C3HE66G4XH738857) I removed the dash board due to the fuel sending unit and the fuel gauge was not communicating correctly. The fuel gauge would go from the correct level to empty, over and over, with no consistently. I drove the car without the dash board in due to an emergency. I reinstalled everything, but in the process the wires in the data-link connector fell out and I have no idea where to put what color wire in what slot; 8 wires, 16 slots). In order to prevent shorting, I placed each wire in a slot. The car will not even engage the starter. The things that work: ? Power seats ? Power windows Things that will not work: ? Door locks ? Audio systems ? A/C The headlights will not come on with the main switch, but will come on if I use the high beam switch. The A/C blower comes on but shows ?- - F?. I do not know the wiring for the data-link, so I can?t use a scanner tool for troubleshooting codes. I?m 60 miles from the nearest Chrysler service center. Is there something I can do to get the car started? Is there some place I can find a wiring diagram for the data-link connector? The two Chrysler service centers in Amarillo Texas will not offer any suggestions other than to bring the vehicle in. Do you have any ideas for starting the car; or where to get a wiring diagram for the data-link connector. Thank you! Scott Radach Borger Texas (806) 273-7359 [email protected]

There are repair cd manuals that have electrical component locators and wiring schematics available on ebay motors for about 20 bucks you need the schematic the shows the switch which will show the order in which the wires connect into the plug, they use a color code description EX: BLW stands for blue wire with white strip and RBL or red with with black stripe and then sometimes just pail BLK for black these cd manuals can be a very valuable tool even though you"ll have to wait for it to be shipped.

Fuel indicator needle doesn't move to fuel level

Most likely its the sending unit in the fuel tank. Your sending unit is probably one unit with the fuel pump. Very rarely is it the gauge in the dash. Your local friendly mechanic can take care of that for you.

Fuel gauges bounces - 1996 Chrysler T&C 3.8

hi the sending unit is located at the very top of the tank to replace this part the tank will need removing to get to the top of the tank. Once the tank is removed its easy to remove the sender unit make sure your tank is empty first as it will be really heavy and hard to manage with fuel in the tank.

I you havnt got the use of a garage ramp or pit then it can be a big job removing the tank as it would involve removing all the fuel hoses and the filler hose from the tank to allow you enough freedom to get the tank off.

Let me know how you get on or if you need further assistance ok
