Chrysler Repair: Chrysler T&C 2005 - power locks, power window switch, chrysler voyager


Question
Greetins Kevin,

I have a 2005 Chrysler T&C and my power locks stopped working. I tried the process in the oweners manual (cycle the ignition 4 times, then push the power window switch down).  It work the first time, but not the next time I had the issue.  If I disconnect the battery, it will make the locks work again, but it is only a temporary fix.  Sometimes lasting a week, sometimes only a day.  I called the dealership and they suggested the body interface module could be the issue.  Any thoughts for a do-it-yourselfer?  Thank you.

Answer
this will be out of your hands  there is a body computer update for the 05 for this issue  the dealer will update the software for the computer.
