How to diagnose if it is BCM or steering wheel wiring?
 
Earlier few days ago, the radio was all black so could not control climate control.  I changed few 15A fuses and it started working -- but the wiper, turn signal, traction control light issue is still there.
 
Thank you.

Take out fuse from under the glovebox - inspect all and replace which ones are necessary.
 
I had issue like this -- 2011 journey -- no radio, no A/C intermittently.
I would have to take out radio, HVAC, SCCM fuses and put back in after 2-3 mins.  It happened about 5 times in the past and this was the only way I could get it to work.  The battery disconnection was not required in my situation.

My cruise control (2011 journey) was not working.  There was no indicator light.  Also, my traction control indicator light was on.  It turned out to be a faulty clock spring.  After replacing the clock spring, cruise control is working and traction control warning indicator light also went away.

Hi, Sorry I was not clear.  It will cost me 50 dollars labor to install new rotors and new pads.  I have to buy my own pads and rotors.

I got the Journey fixed by the Dstealership
1. Transmission Valve was replaced (along with filter, sealer, sensor) -- part of warranty
2. Bad Clock Spring was replaced (traction control light and maybe was not working, also fixed cruise control that was not working) -- 470 parts and labor!!
3. Wiring repair from TCM to PCM (2 broken wires not sure -- to fix limp mode issue) -- 300 parts and labor!!
So in end lot of money but seems to be working OK now. I am happy that cruise was fixed.
As expected, the main reason I took the car in there was solved last. They always find other issues first which is why I try to stay away from them!

Hi,
It has 78K miles. I think trans fluid was changed around 50K (but not sure) -- I bought used at around 55K miles. It ran OK for 20K miles (the check engine came on and off intermittent with Trans pressure too high but it always ran OK).
I did leave it to dealer to figure out the limp mode issue. They said some electrical issue is causing that trans issue (just verbally they said). After that, I will get trans fluid and filter changed anyways.
TCS light: I push TCS off switch but it makes no difference. The car runs just as usual.
I also had one wheel bearing and Hub changed as well (it was making noise when turning -- but that's a difference issue).
Thanks everyone for their help!

Hello Carrie,
When you press the on button, does the light come on the instrument panel? For me the light does not even come on so I can not even do anything.
For you, since you have warranty, can you tell them to update the software as DodgeCares suggested above?

DodgeCares,
Thank you for the information. For me when I turn on cruise there is no light and nothing happens. Could it be fuse? I checked but there is not fuse listed for cruise control. Also, about this TSB is it only possible thru dealership (they will charge 2 arms and 2 legs)?
Thank you!

I went thru the manual for interior fuses (and even exterior fuses). Which fuse is for cruise control (aka electronic speed control)? They are not saying anything in the user manual -- any idea which fuse (number) it would be? Also, when I start the car, should there be cruise control light that should go on and off (I notice airbag, seatbelt, etc) but not cruise control light.
Thank you.
