My 1996 Town & Country Chrysler has a front end shimmy that starts at 40 mph gets worse and then disappears about 50 mph. Had the front tires balanced with no change. The shimmy goes away if I get off the gas. It ONLY happens when the car is under power and accelerating. Just had new bushings and links replaced. No change. vehicle has 110,000 miles and new tires.

1. Remove or disconnect the following:
   • Negative battery cable
2. Raise the vehicle and support the fuel tank with a transmission jack.
   • Fuel line from the front of the tank
   • Ground strap
   • Inboard side of the fuel tank straps and front T strap fastener and lower the tank about 6 inches
   • Fuel lines from the fuel pump module
   • Fuel filter
3. Installation is the reverse of removal. Tighten the fuel filter bolts to 40 inch lbs. (4.5 Nm), the main tank straps to 40 ft. lbs. (54 Nm) and the T strap to 250 inch lbs. (28 Nm).
4. Start the engine and check for leaks.

If you are talking about the cooling fan relay for the radiator there is no low speed and high speed relay. There is only one relay and it is behind the grill revitted to the bumper rail. It is doesnt look like you typical relay.

the relay is located in the power distribution box under the hood the relay will be a square black or gray cube just pull out and make sure you rerplace it with the same type relay. refer to your owners manual for any questions regarding the fuses and relays

Check the control arm bushings, they are common to wear out and have known some cases where they needed to be changed at 20,000KM, mine. Must of been a bad supply that year, other then that check the common things like the idler arm, tie rod ends and engine mounts.
Not sure how many miles on your PT but I found some seam to be built better then others. I had a PT turbo and it was in the shop more times then the good driving weather here in Canada.
Good luck and hope this helps and I hope it's not the transmission slipping from 1st to 2nd if it's an auto.
