    2late4u reacted to 5rebel9 in TPMS FAILURE   
    OK, seems like FOREVER since I said I would get around to it BUT here is my current status with the '14's TPMS.
    I did not rotate any tires and just replaced the module in the LR wheel arch.
    Did a auto relearn drive and came up with the Left rear not reading. My original problem was the RF dropping out intermittently. 
    Going to visit my friend who has a number of tire and high end scanners to check the LR sensor out. MAYBE it is going bad as I've not replaced any sensors since getting the car a year ago.

    Needs trouble shooting if battery and or alternator are bad. Low voltage can cause all sorts of weird dash lights, normal.
    If battery is more than 5 years old I would probably just change it. Always charge a new battery before install.  When it’s running check what voltage alt is putting out. Should be 13.5-15 ish volts with several accessories running.

    Well a bit more than 2 weeks worth of driving and just a couple MINOR glitches were found by the wife. ALL fixed within 10 minutes time with NO PARTS needed. BUT the largest complaint is that the analog speedometer is KPH primary {bigger size numbers} and MPH secondary {smaller size numbers}. She says she can "live with it", and overall likes this '13 RT quite well! She should for $5,000.!
     My son is VERY HAPPY getting the '14 SXT, and I'm broke from paying for a new torque converter/labor and 2 rear upper control arms{$1,200.} and 2 new rear tires {$266.} for the '14 before turning it over to him!
    I debated in my mind about keeping the '11 for a SPARE VEHICLE, but MONEY {or my lack of it} won out and the "11 WILL BE SOLD.

    Prior experience,  on other domestic brands, has convinced me that, when it comes to sensors, OEM is the only way. Eliminates the trial and error.

    Could unplug battery for an hour, reseat sensor plug again,. On slim chance it does something. 
    Scan for codes again.

    mine wasnt factory but you use a spring the screws onto the bolt thread then pulled thur the hole by a string or wire ;like shown in the video,,are using the oem wires for power i used the wiring kit and went to the battery up front ,,,if you use the factory oem wiring you will have to get the sales code authorized thur the local dealership before it will work

    Hello, my name is Andy and I have a DJ 2.7 right-hand drive (I'm in New Zealand)
     
    Like the car, great sound system and is spacious. I had a couple of electrical problems and had to change the battery and throttle body but aside from that has been good. I have a couple of questions and will post them in the appropriate forum. 
     
    Thank you

    2late4u reacted to 5rebel9 in 2018 Dodge journey gt   
    A broken / bad actuator may have failed in the "hot" position for the passenger side. This is also true for A/C usage as A/C temp is controlled by the blend door actuators. There is a blend door for driver and another for passenger side on models with "dual zone" front temp adjustment{which most all DJ's have}.
    IF these are working, then there is the POSSIBILITY that A/C refrigerant is low on charge. 
    You have been given the correct video and suggestions on what to check first.

    2late4u reacted to Charlie G in Tensioner pully   
    Hey there guys, i started off with a squeak that is not horrible, but just enough to cause me insanity if i didn't do something! So i got the belt off and got a ratcheting wrench on the bolt and got it broke loose and kept on cranking till i ran it into the frame and now it is stuck. I cant tighten it and im stuck...so I'm going to get my hack saw and cut the bolt off. I just need someone to tell me what size bolt it is so i can swallow my pride and go tell the guys at the parts house how stupid I am.

    3.5 ltr eng ?
    I would be replacing the timing belt and water pump as long as it hasn't skipped cause you dont want that happening it's an interference  engine and they do use oil
    Good engine as long as you take care of them

    Hey all!
      Well the "new to us" 13 DJ is now in our driveway! Got to adjust to the added features of this R/T model, like navigating the controls on the big screen audio.
    BUT I have to admit that I'm not so excited about having this now third DJ. Nice ride and features....just feeling a little "underwhelmed" already having 2 other journeys

    Have never heard of this problem,,, I am assuming you have the 3.6 eng with the 6 sd trans? what mileage on the journey? have you had the trans fluids changed out, as it is due around 100 K ? and also i have to ask did they/you check the fluid level.?

    Glad to hear the TPMS situation seems resolved. I'm still going to check the module plug and the try out my 1 week old alfaOBD program and see what it can do with TPMS. Have not had a lot of time to "play" with it due to vehicle use/time/weather conditions!
    Also wondering on your ABS concern that you MAY actually be having a wheel bearing TONE RING problem and not the module??? Lots of "techs" just go with code message and don't investigate FULLY.
