Ok, im pretty sure that the starter and gas pump are functional. I had a friend come over and he got the starter grounded and it cranked and cranked everytime. Not too sure about the gas pump but i assume it is also working because the van will sometimes start and will drive fine. Then all of a sudden i will turn the ignition off leave it off for like 10 minutes go back and nothing...not even a crank of the starter just all the lights and nothing more. I am located in san antonio, tx. Any other suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again for the reply.

Why not try the bog-standard things like slightly loose batt. terminals, engine ground strap etc. I say this because you apparently couldn't crank the engine one time. Easy to do, well known causers of wierd problems. Only needs a spanner/wrench.

I know that this was a couple of years ago, but I just wanted to say that we discovered the problem with my T&C Limited. It was silly really....I needed new spark plugs. It took care of the problem immediately. I am still driving it, and it's got 268,000 miles on the clock. Just replaced the fan motor sensor ($20) as it would only run on HIGH. All back to normal now. I hope to get 300,000 out of this van if I'm lucky (I always change oil every 3,000 miles). I would buy another one tomorrow if I had the money, but I am out of work at the moment, it's got to last a little while longer.

Moral of the event, -- look after routine maintenance. And thanks for reporting solution because this website is a repositary of solved problems which may be of great use to others, saving lots of money and time.
