Don't know how handy you may be but would seriously consider removing instrument cluster, and checking solder on circuit board. Just did mine, wasn't hard, maybe a couple of hours work. Nice small, pointed solder gun will be needed as well. They have had many weird problems with gauges, starting, running etc, all narrowed down to that printed circuit board, where the solder on the contact pins become corroded or cracked and cause some pretty weird stuff. At the very least, try removing dash enough to remove 4 screws holding cluster in, and pulling off connectors and putting them back on a couple of times, just in case it's just a dirty connection. If you decide you want to try it, and need more specific instructions, let me know, or even google , Dodge or Plymouth instrument cluster soldering, as there is some pictures and videos out there on the subject. Good Luck, and let me know how you make out.

I am having the same problem on my 96 grand caravan, with conditions worsening.... i know the diagnosis. i am a mechanic. Your alarm is faulty. you need to find your alarm and track down the faulty wiring. My van now has started draining battery, the silent alarm comes on when just parked triggering lights. turns over and dies,( due to your faulty alarm or wiring tripping the ADS(auto shutdown relay). located in engine fuse compartment. do not remove it, it will just keep dying.) I would tell you exactly were it is and were the faulty wiring might be, but i am recovering from a severe knee injury and cant get around to locating it. Contact me if still need help.
