starting problem
hi all,
i have a chrysler voyager 3.3 1997
Went to start it this morning, i noticed that all the top instument lights, ie, oil, alarm indicators are all alight,
but my milage and gearshift lights are not working..
when i turn the key the enginestarts for about 5 seconds then stops.
Each time i try to start it it will only idle for 5 secs
any ideas
thanks

RE: starting problem
thanks tech
i read one of the posts , who had the same problem
You said"hit the top of the dash"
.....IT WORKED.....must be a solder point down

well u guys have either 1 of 2 issues happening here. Either the Cluster board is going bad which i ahve see on here a reapir that u guys can do yourself with solder or replace the cluster board and have it relearned by the dealer. Next thing i have seen but will need to know what the van is installed with inorder to rule this one out. The BCM body computers will give bad info to the PCM engine computer and tell it that it has Theft when infact it does not so once that happens the PCM will alwase think it has alarm and when the BCM is not acting right it will make the pcm think the alarm is active and the pcm will not turn the fuel pump on and so forth. Inorder to tell this one I would need to see what told the pcm to shut off last and weither or not it was installed with thef from the factory. If this is teh case then a pcm and bcm would need to be installed. expensive and haft to be programed with the vin. On the other hand the clucter is not so bad if u find the broken solder point. PS if it stopes working for u then HIT the top of the dash right above the cluster if u start up then u know what so do from there if not u start then die more then likely Theft issue.
