2005 chrysler 300 limited; driver side front window switches and door lock switch don't work. Driver side rear window switches work. Passenger switch operates passenger window. Replaced driver side switch module and door module and did not solve the problem.

SOURCE: Passenger power window will not open.

We have had this happen in every town and country and caravan that we have owned. They will tell you that the window motor needs replaced. It will work for a while and then break again. Did I mention that the price tag to fix it is pretty hefty? A friend of mine told me that he fixed his with a salvaged window motor for a fraction of the price. The motor is obviously defective though if it breaks so easily.

hi this works on most voyagers disconect the possative terminal on the battery for ten minites excactly then reconnect and happy days your voyager centrol locking should work ok good luck

SOURCE: 2005 Chrysler Pacifica passenger doors have no power

If your alarm went off, it could be that someone had tried to break into your car. They most likely may have cut some of the wires inside your door with what ever device they may have been using. Look for evidence between the bottom of the windows and doors where the problem is. If not, then it is possible that your automatic window assemblies are malfunctioning. Do you hear the motors run on the windows when you go up or down with the switch? I also have a Pacifica, 2005, however no window problems yet.

Good Luck,

SOURCE: 2005 Chrysler 300 thermostat location?

Hi,

In your Model :-

The automotive thermostat is a temperature controlled on and off valve. When the temperature rises to a predetermined temperature, the thermostat opens up to allow the engine coolant to flow through the cylinder block and the radiator. This flow is crucial to maintain optimum operating temperature for fuel efficiency, enhanced driveability, and engine protection. The coolant flow is reduced when the engine is cold, and the flow is increased when the engine is hot. Contrary to popular opinion, operating the vehicle without the thermostat doesn't make the engine run cooler. It will actually run hotter because there isn't a thermostat to slow the coolant flow. This means the coolant doesn't stay in the radiator long enough to dissipate its heat.

TO TEST THERMOSTAT

There are several ways to test the opening temperature of a thermostat.
One method does not require that the thermostat be removed from the engine.

• Remove the radiator pressure cap from a cool radiator and insert a thermometer into the coolant.
• Start the engine and let it warm up. Watch the thermometer and the surface of the coolant.
• When the coolant begins to flow, this indicates the thermostat has started to open.
• The reading on the thermometer indicates the opening temperature of the thermostat.
• If the engine is cold and coolant circulates, this indicates the thermostat is stuck open and must be replaced.

• Suspend the thermostat completely submerged in a small container of water so it does not touch the bottom.
• Place a thermometer in the water so it does not touch the container and only measures water temperature.
• Heat the water.
• When the thermostat valve barely begins to open, read the thermometer. This is the opening temperature of this particular thermostat.
• If the valve stays open after the thermostat is removed from the water, the thermostat is defective and must be replaced.
• Several types of commercial testers are available. When using such a tester, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions.
• Markings on the thermostat normally indicate which end should face toward the radiator. Regardless of the markings, the sensored end must always be installed toward the engine.
• When replacing the thermostat, also replace the gasket that seals the thermostat in place and is positioned between the water outlet casting and the engine block.

• Generally, these gaskets are made of a composition fiber material and are die-cut to match the thermostat opening and mounting bolt configuration of the water outlet.
• Thermostat gaskets generally come with or without an adhesive backing. The adhesive backing of gaskets holds the thermostat securely centered in the mounting flange, leaving both hands of the technician free to align and bolt the thermostat securely in place.

• Drain some coolant into a clean container until the coolant level is below the thermostat housing.
• Remove the upper radiator hose connection from the thermostat housing.
• Loosen the housing bolts and remove the housing.
• Remove the gasket and scrape it carefully from the surface of the housing and the mounting surface on the engine. If the gasket remains on either of the surfaces, there will probably bea coolant leak after reassembly. Some engines use a rubber O-ring to seal a thermostat housing.
• Compare the size of the thermostat to the old one. They are of different sizes, types, and temperature ratings.
• The temperature rating is stamped on the sensing bulb on the bottom of the thermostat. The temperature bulb faces the block.
• When replacing a thermostat, be sure that the thermostat fits into the groove in the block or outlet housing. If the thermostat is installed upside down, the engine will overheat.
• Install the gasket.
• Reinstall the thermostat housing. Refill the system and run the engine or pressure test to check for leaks.
• When the engine has reached operating temperature make sure the thermostat opens.
• You should be able to see coolant circulating within the radiator.
• Another way of checking thermostat operation is to feel the top of the radiator hose or use a thermometer or multimeter with a temperature probe to confirm that the coolant is warming up.
• If the engine is overheating, but the top hose is still cool to the touch, the thermostat is stuck closed and must be replaced.

SOURCE: Service Engine Light flashes-Chrysler 300

The fact that the service engine light came on indicates a fault has been recorded. Most chain auto parts stores have complimentary diagnostic tests that will determine the fault code. Depending on what the code(s) is will determine the course of action. Considering a diagnostic test at a dealer runs $75 and up, I'd get the free test to get the codes. From there it may be a simple fix (i.e. tightening gas cap if u just got gas etc)

Testimonial: "Thank you. You gave me some great things to go on if it flashes again."
