Having battery issues. Cars sitting all week and battery dead. Charged, drove, next day dead again. Rinse and repeat. This morning getting in Tahoe I see the cluster lights are on, checked light switches, all off. Close door and wait, just cluster lights on and do not go off.
By chance, do you have a Tazer or Tuner in it? Mine did that once. The Trinity never went to "sleep". I checked the sleep settings on the tuner and haven't had the problem since.
After some research, the BCM is not putting the cluster to sleep.. Best I could find is other Chrysler vehicles doing this and it was always a broken wire to or at BCM.
Can't get tazer to anything, been a problem since I got it. Gives the red green flashing, then the 4 green pause 4 green. Has to be some real draw, not just cluster back lighting to kill battery that quick.
Zauto is kind of aloof when it comes to support????
Wrote a tune in yesterday and the cluster goes out when doing this, not sure why it doesn't time out by itself.
Could I have a failing BCM?
Wheel speed sensor not reading on R front with new part (U140A), Auto sensing wipers going crazy, cluster lights that won't go into sleep mode,(odd thing is the center display goes into sleep mode) some other power draw that's killing the battery in short order.
Trying to remember if some one on this site had a discharge problem and it was the alternator or something else. My alt is newer, maybe 6 months old.
Another issue popped up. Manual down shift to 2nd, it up shifts to 3rd, down shift again, same thing. From light, 1st, throttle up, manual to 2nd, then it up shifts to 3rd immediately after on it's own. Electrical problems suck.
Replace the front right wheel speed sensor. I had a wheel speed sensor go bad. It threw 51 codes. Apparently something was daisy chained. East Coast Moparts has them for $28.00 es.
Thanks. I did replace it with one from my original front suspension and no change.. Order two new ones anyway... Beginning to think I have a failing module or wiring. Odd all this started after dealer did the evap recall, it smelled like wires or module burnt up inside car when I picked it up. . My gut said not to do it, because I had no codes for it, now all this starts.
The evap recall is changing the charcoal canister in right rear wheel well. Hard to see how the dealer screwed that up. I think the only thing in the well is the esim switch.
Just odd that it smelled of burnt module or wires inside car and all this started. Who knows what else the messed with.. I put a maintenance tune in so they could joy ride or rev eng out, maybe they got pissed, I don't know. Electrical problems are the worst.
Zauto finally got back to me. Had me restore unit from the web site, then do update.. Now the light flashed red in fours instead of green. Haven't hook to car yet.
Yes. So the front fuse box gets power from red cable. With power removed from front fuse box dash works normal.
Don't understand what could be bypassing fuses and relays in front fuse box to cause the problem?
Thinking I just remove all connectors from BCM and see what happens.
Should I be looking at rear fuse box?
TAZER does not connect with car either, was trying to return to stock, only have SRT pages. Zauto suggest I see if it will connect to another car before I send it in to make sure it isn't my car. Need to find someone in near me to do that.
With all the programming I've been doing with HPtuners, maybe it's that. It does turn dash off and blower motor on and other stuff when it writes to ECM for some odd reason.
I once tapped into power in the overhead console for a radar detector and it made the CANBUS wake all the time having my cluster time out and come right back on.
I went elsewhere for power and it stopped.
Nope. The only recent work done was a recall by dealer, EVAP stuff. Still think something happened there with car smelling like burn wire or electronics when I picked it up.. All was good up-until this point.
Or maybe something was slightly disconnected and now it is back to full voltage. When I started in this business an old mechanic told me- it is better to be lucky than good any day!
