Well scene U have u have emailed me, asked me the same question on allexperts.com and on here.
I will take a stab at it.
Could be looking at an ign switch,bcm, wire issue or IPM.

Hey I appreciate your view in the scene...Thats better than nothing...:D thanks for showing...


I understand the ignition and the BCM (BCM I would hate it to be this)$$$$$$ ouch!!!
You got me with the IPM,what is it? Or better, where is it?

Any way to troubleshoot the problem?

IPM is the fuse box under the hood U wont be able to test it unless U have a dealer scanner. shoot for an ign switch it is the lesser of the 3 things.
a;so for piss and giggles check all your fuses.

I see that this post was from a couple of years back, but is anyone aware of how it was resolved? The symptoms being described are EXACTLY what I am experiencing, and I was hoping that someone could tell me what they had done to remedy this when they had a similar problem. Please let me know if you have any information about these dashboard and accessory-related problems.
Thanks!

Well so far I haven't fixed anything but today I seem to have noticed that if I put the IOD fuse to normal position and turn the switch to acess. and turn emergency flashes on radio works, dash light turn off, it seems like normal again,(haven't figure out how to make the GPS niether) (but it's not)... I figure there a short circuit some where.. I just need some1 to point me in the right direction... Does any1 have expertise in this matter? any cable I could look at? Thanks...

Quite possibly the answer...
 
If you have the same symptoms as I am other people have here,I may have the answer for you. I found it somewhere online, and it was exactly my issue. There was a design flaw in where Chrysler put one of the power distribution splices in this truck, and they get wet (because of where they are) and corrode. Then, the gremlins come in, because with everything networked in the car and some modules missing, things can go quite haywire...

Disconnect the battery. Open the rear door on the driver side and take out the kickplate that trims the carpet near the door. Carefully roll back the carpet in front of the rear seat a few inches to inspect under it. You should see a wire splice with about 7 wires in it, wrapped in cloth electrical tape. Remove the tape and carefull inspect this splice. If it is like mine was, as soon as you see the splice, you will see the powdery corrosion around it, and possible some wires that are already broken off of it. Repair the splice (wire everything back together), carefully insulate it (and seal it!!!). Reconnect the battery and see what happens!

Let the forum know if it works for you!!!
