05 Caravan with Dead Power Locks

Sep 05, 2007 3 Replies

I have a 2005 Dodge Caravan with about 39k miles. This past week the power locks suddenly stopped working while all other electrical components appear to be working fine. I looked through the owners manual and could not find any conclusive information on the location of the fuse for the power locks. For fuses in general the manual refers me to look in the Integrated Power Module, however there are no fuses marked power locks in there, and upon further inspection no burned fuses were found. I also noticed there was not a radio fuse... I think there must be another "hidden" fuse box somewhere.



Can someone point me in the right direction to find the other fuses? Has anyone else had a similar problem with the power locks suddenly dying? Maybe it's not a fuse problem afterall? I am not a huge Dodge fan due to this and other experiences. Can anyone recommend a better minivan for next time?


Any and all input would be gratefully appreciated.


Thanks,


Dan



Well Dan you may have to be a Huge Dodge fan this time to get this problem fixed. Have the Dealer Reflash the software in the BCM to get the door locks working again.TSB 08-028-05 This only applies to vehicles built between July

Not that it will necessarily fix your problem, but there is a secondary fuse block under the bottom curve of the dash, just to the left of the steering column. It's got a little plastic push&turn retaining catch...
