yes the blend doors will make that noise during operation of the unit and after you shut the car off for a minute or two while it goes into resting position,,,but it shouldn't do it at random times while it drains your battery,sounds like you also have an other problem that is causing it to activate or short out,,as far as the rear ac being disabled have no idea on that problem

I just seen where he has a 2009 and NOT a 2014 journey as he has it listed, my mistake on telling him it had 2 thermostats....LOL

easy to see just operate the blend door switches while you are watching them move under the glove box. 2 on the passenger side and 1 on the drivers side as well....you tube has a lot of videos or on the journeys blend doors......... as for the heater core dodge used a 2 zone heater core one for the drivers side and one for the passenger door side ,so it can get heat for just one side while the other side is plugged up....P.S. if its a blend door motor only use OEM as it has been reported the aftermarket ones don't last very long

Replacing Coolant Thermostat - 2012 SE 2.4L
2late4u replied to piccarp27's topic in Maintenance & D.Y.I.
just one of many videos he seem to removing the air box and might not have to but seemed to the best one I quickly watched replace both thermostats and remember everything is plastic so don't over tighten the bolts and break the unit...and also make sure you bleed all the air bubbles out of the system as well -
Replacing Coolant Thermostat - 2012 SE 2.4L
2late4u replied to piccarp27's topic in Maintenance & D.Y.I.
youtube will be your best bet to research on what to do... I would advise you to watch as many as you can, as most only show what they think is important,,, basic tools and quality parts from your local part stores in case their is a problem with them,, make sure you use the correct antifreeze, MOPAR is best but cost a lot of bought locally,amazon has good prices on it... 2.4 is a lot more trouble than the 3.6 which I have but it shouldn't be to hard,local mechanic garage might be your best bet since you seem to be unsure of what you need or to do...good luck -

LOL my 2014 3.6 power steering either chirps real loud or screams a bit when first started in winter time here in Al. right now its getting down to 30 degrees at night,,the pump is also noisey as well for the first 2-3 minutes till it warms up -

was the replacement antenna OEM????

so many different fixes BUT without being able to have it checked out we are just guessing,,that said if it was running okay till you replaced the oil cooler??? I am assuming its a 3.6 engine,,,,what is the age and condition of the underside frame, is it rust free, I would assume you have a wiring problems so check all the body grounds for loose or corrosion connections and also check all your connectors to make sure you have good connection also check for broken wires,,,check the fuse block for green crusties under it as well,as mentioned have the battery LOAD CHECKED to see if its in good shape,good luck pull the battery and clean the post after load checking it as well the Journeys enjoy a strong electrical connection and weak batteries make them go ape shit with all sorts of problems

weird that all 4 doors are doing this,,,as I worked in a dodge van plant, the doors go down different lines Left and Right so the insides guides and glass get put in and then the panels installed it wouldn't be due to supplier panels I would think,,,,just weird as yours is the first I have heard of doing this

LED Headlights_First Try Fail
2late4u replied to Summer Solstice's topic in Glass, Lighting, Mirrors, Sun Roofs & Wipers
I have been told not to use led in the hi-beam as that is where your DLR are and your hi beams will stay on all the time,,I just run the led in low beam and reg bulbs in the high beam and haven't had any problems except I have had to replace them 2 times so far but it is a 2014 model -

you can add some anti/flicker resistors to your lights to stop the flicker or buy led bulbs that have it built into them for your canbus system -
I am at that point ,that the tires are not toast yet but going into winter time which means 1-3 snows here in Alabama they are reading still in the green but almost in the yellow on my gage and keeping an eye out for a good sale on tires ,damn these 19 inch tires are expensive and of course when I get them an alignment is next on that list,,,no problems there, but if getting new tires better safe than sorry

FWD versus AWD winter driving comparison

grew up in Mi and my father always had about 5 50 lb bags of sand each wrapped in a new garbage bag plus a small shovel in the trunk of our family car -

easy to google here is what I found,,,,,,,,,,,,Here are the most effective ways to fix a P0420 catalytic converter efficiency code: Clean the Catalytic Converter Try using a catalytic converter cleaner or fuel additive to remove carbon buildup that can affect the catalytic converter’s performance. Do a Proper Diagnosis Before replacing any parts, perform a thorough diagnosis to identify the exact cause of the P0420 code. You will find everything you need to know in this article Replace the Catalytic Converter If the diagnosis confirms the converter is worn out or clogged, replacement may be necessary. Replace the Front or Rear Oxygen Sensor (O2 Sensor) Faulty O2 sensors often cause incorrect readings, triggering the P0420 code. Repair Damaged Sensor Wiring Check and repair any broken, corroded, or shorted wires connected to the oxygen sensors. Replace Damaged Engine Sensors Faulty sensors such as the MAF (Mass Air Flow) or MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor can cause incorrect fuel-air mixtures that lead to P0420. Fix High Oil Consumption Burning oil can contaminate the catalytic converter and reduce its efficiency. Repair Engine Misfires Misfires send unburned fuel into the exhaust, which can damage the catalytic converter. Correct Lean or Rich Fuel Mixtures An incorrect air-fuel ratio can cause incomplete combustion, leading to the P0420 error. Replace the Engine Control Unit (ECU) (Rare) In rare cases, a faulty ECU can misread sensor data, triggering a false P0420 code.

I have not really driven an AWD in snow but I have never had any problems anywhere I wanted to go with my fwd vehicles in any amount of ice or snow

Guess I need to check and see what book they use or what level ..probally NOT private resell price more like trade in value or something like that, we live in a small town and the wife is going down hill with her health she doesn't even want to go on any more gambling trips to Biloxi so I guess that tells me a lot on her health as she was always ready to go at a moments notice,,,going to the Drs or getting her hair done is about the most exciting thing these days
