the only real code was the 1684 there would be others if u used a scanner to see what they were b4 u replaced the battery if U check them after that battery was replaced your screwed and u will need to let a pro look at it then.

i did try to pull codes ,there was none ,,,,what do you mean by one real code .....400.1 = improper power shutdown
100.6 = 'SBEC/DEC/MCM communication failure'
100.0 = 'loop-back failure'

I too have the same problem, '03 T&C (115K) shuts off at idle or stop light but it would always start right up. My codes were & still are, P0442, P0455 & P0173. The first two I believe were related to some kind of air vacuum leak and the last one was regarding the fuel but can't remember, only that it was not something to cause this problem. I am waiting for it to get worst and for it to throw a meaningful code or someone here finds a solution. Sorry I was no help but maybe my codes mean something more than what I read at the time...?

I had the same problems and replaced the battery, the alternator and even the crankshaft sensor with no success. It turned out to be the main wiring harness needed repair/replacement. I chose to get it repaired at a significant cost. But issues went away.

Really? Wow! Was it damaged by wear & tear or did you have mice or something in your garage that caused the damage? I main wiring harness is a big job to replace but where would you even begin to repair it?

My issue is getting significantly worse. It use to shut off once every 20 mins or so but now is like every five minutes of idle time. I need to find a solution with out braking the bank.
