Electircal nightmare. sound like the instrument cluster is losing communication with the CAN network. could be the cluster. could be the wires. could be a connection issue. could be some other stupid module chryslers usually that communicates with the cluster which is pretty much all of them. It is a mess when it comes to things like this get rid of it!

It is likely the sensor button on your driver side door is worn. Locate the button on the door ... take a penny and a square of masking tape and place it on the inside of the door at the contact point of the button. Most times it is just a worn contact.

2001 Stratus is has a fuel leak. 2.4L DOHC engine. The leak is coming from under a "hat looking device" attached to the top middle of the fuel rail. Is this a pressure relief valve. Is it replaceable or do I have to replace the entire fuel rail? I don't believe it's a test port or schrader valve. The Haynes manual says to connect an adapter between the fuel line and rail to check fuel pressure. This is a returnless fuel system. Does anyone have a factory service manual that talks about this "hat" on the fuel rail. Thanks for any info you can give. 1 Answer
