    I'm curious, is this a small shop mechanic that doesn't subscribe to programs like ALL DATA? Or do they not have that in your area? I would hate for my mechanic to ask me how to fix something in my car.
  2. Armando G
    Well, I was going to give you some input, but... Anyway, thanks for keeping everyone updated... glad you figured it out.

    I watched someone do that to a car parked two spots over from me. So I pulled my phone out and video tape him pull out and leave. Left a note on the parked car with the license plate and my number in case he needed the video. He called me about a month later to thank me. Thought it was such BS that the guy could do that. Sorry man...

    I would start with basics... - Are your battery connections (terminals) clean and tight - Were the wires and connections to your alternator inspected and cleaned - Does your ground wire have a good connection - And ultimately, is your battery going out My other car just went through this and ultimately the battery was bad. But start with the basics first, then get to testing.

    That is the hitch wire plug. You need to buy the $70-$85 harness and get it flashed for another $75-$100 depending on where you are. Using the Curt wiring harness is cheaper and easy to install.

    I'm more curious about the repo story... but agreed, check for power first to the whole system. If you have power then something wrong with the unit.

    Sounds like you got some good advise...

    If you want to be thorough (and you should in this case), you should remove it and inspect it. The gasket could have pinched, there may be some debris at the point of contact, or the part may have failed itself. Putting a bandaid on this type part is never a good thing, and you will be in there fixing it again soon anyway. I assume you cleaned both surfaces before installing it but sometimes sh#$ happens.

    Welcome, and yes those are the steps. I don't believe you have to remove the entire dash to check them. Plenty of videos and advise out there, mostly on this site.

    Remember, never hurts calling your local dealer and asking if they will give you the right part number. Whoever you are buying it from should be able to cross reference it.

    Try just cleaning the connection before changing it out. Sometimes it's just a bad connection that is helped by a "love tap".

    This was all I kept thinking after reading through this entire thread. Slight vibration, every once in a while (probably at a certain speed) usually points to this. Happened with my old Ford and the guy said... oh, one weight fell off. Yeah, ok. Let us know...

    Hmmm... let me guess, friend came over, figured it our for her, and she moved on with life. One post wonder...

    Could it be true?!?! I like the look if it happens. Found this post on FB. https://www.autoevolution.com/news/2023-dodge-journey-suv-revival-rendered-with-american-styling-italian-chassis-145691.html

    Damn, my grammar is terrible when I'm not focused

    Watch any video on changing the pan and follow the instructions. They're almost all the same. Make sue you buy one with a gasket... and I would buy new screws. If you can't find all the screwed, use the new one add a reference Ann's clean out the old gasket stuff.

    Looking sharp
  18. Armando G
    There was some great advice on this string

    Are you able to start it without the FOB being present? I have the push button, so I have to have the FOB, so just curious on yours.
  20. Armando G
    Welcome... caught your post on FB earlier. Good looking DJ. My first Dodge after a long line of Fords, and been happy so far.
  21. Armando G
    I would be interested in seeing a snapshot of what you did here. Did you happen to document the work?
  22. Armando G
    Nice. Out of curiosity, did you try just removing the fuse before disconnecting?
  23. Armando G
    If you have the Curt wiring harness, you may also try taking the fuse for the harness off at the battery terminal. This powers off the resistor... assuming you have the LED lights. Or as stated above, disconnect it all to see if it makes a difference.
  24. Armando G
    Fellow Charger members!?!? Wrong forum or wrong car?
  25. Armando G
    Could be something as simple as proper gap on the plugs or old wires not handling the power. More info would be helpful.
