Try putting the original parts back on one at a time ,till it starts ,then have it diagnosed correctly by a diagnostic technician who will check the electrics over and find whats wrong

    i also forgot to mention the water froze and the radiator but thawed it out in garage..

    must have antifreeze all year round ,its a anti corrosion inhibitor ,and without it you cause the core plugs to corrode away ,(freeze plugs) ,the problem with this vehicle is i have never seen one so i dont know the lay out of the engine ,like is every plug on its own coil pack or 2 plugs to a coil pack or one big one for all the cylinders ,either way the supply for the coils must be checked as it could be a computer fault missing the supply to these two cylinders

  • drozdick Dec 08, 2010

    one big pack for all cylinders had a leak in radiator that is why it had water in it had to fill it to get the parts i needed then this happened

    i will let you off then for the water ,right one big coil pack ---??¡¡-- then the power lead coming in to the coil pack needs checking out as it could be a wire broke behind the rubber cover on the back of the connection plug which i hope it is ,but to diagnose it correctly you will need a scope to check all the wires for a time over frequency and voltage check to determine the fault ,which is why i said a diagnostic man and not a code reader machine ,let me know how you get on later but i have to go to work now as i have a seat alhambra for a service and a saab 93 for brakes and dawoo nubria to get ready for its annual test ,plus a seat panda with a steering problem and the phone hasnt rung yet either ,hope its woman with 5 kids who lives up the back ,i need to do her brakes today as well

    if possible you could text me at 5707025877...also need to mention that the cam shaft sensor code keeps coming on even though i replaced it twice

2003 Dodge Caravan wont start changed fuel pump, lead wires,coil pack,cam/crank sensor,coolant sensor.Checked all connections and firing order all good .Please Help

You Changed a lot of parts but did not say weather or not the engine is firing or not. if its not, Take an extra spark plug. pull one of the wires from a cylinder and put the plug in it. lay it on the engine block or frame so the plug is touching metal. have someone crank the engine over and see if the plug has spark. This is the easy way if you don't have a tester. MAKE SURE you are NOT touching the plug or wire while cranking the engine over or it will give you one heck of a Shock.

These vehicles are notorious for having shared ground wires that crack or rot and give poor connection to the PCM (power control module)or one of its sensors.

Could be you just need a new set of spark plug wires.Spray all the spark plug wires with WD40 and see if it starts,if it does change all the spark plug wires,one at a time.

1996 dodge grand caravan 3.3 will turn over but will not crank seems to be no fire to the plugs

It is hard to say with the info posted, it could be related to a number of issues. If you have verified that there is no spark to the spark plugs, it could be the CPS (crankshaft position sensor)

Spark plug firing order Dodge Grand Caravan s.e. 98/// Change Alternaor and Belt and tried to started the and it wont turn over.... may have cross spark plug..

The coil pack that the spark plug wires connect too are labeled 1-6 the block if you look at it from the passenger side is odds towards the radiator and evens toward the firewall facing you they would be on right 135 on the left 246. Changing the belt you may have inadvertently unplugged the crank sensor which is located at the bottom end near the crank pulley.

Test at the spark plug if you are getting current there with a cheap spark plug tester, if not, it could be the spark box. ( it used to be an ignition coil on older cars ) double check the computer for codes which may lead to a cam sensor not giving the PCM information.
