| Description of the problem | 2005 dodge grand caravan. Bought new. Around 2008, after warranty expired, the power door locks stopped working, whether you used the button on the door or the button on the remote. After researching this issue, it appears that this is a recurring problem with this make and model and year van. If you disconnect the battery for a minute and reconnect it, the door locks will work again, maybe for an hour or for a week before they stop working again, it is always random amount of time before it quits again. The dealership would charge to attempt to fix it since it is not covered under any recall. |
