Description of the problem	At 32,050 miles, the power door locks on our 2005 dodge grand caravan suddenly failed to work. This was discovered after parking the car and turning off the ignition. The inside door lock switches and key fobs couldn't operate the locks, despite the usual accompanying parking light flickers and horn toots when the key fobs were tried. I discovered that 75 other drivers reported the same problem on the following website: http://www. Carcomplaints. Com/dodge/caravan/2005/electrical/power_door_locks_quit_working. Shtml the customer input on this website provides useful information about the problem and what may be causing it, as well as chrysler's apparent indifference to it. I was able to restore operation by pulling and reinserting a 20a fuse (marked iod), which as i understand it resets the computer. The solution to the problem may be the reprogramming of the vehicle's computer. I have no idea why that should be necessary after 30,000+ miles driven and no new accessories installed or modifications made to the car. It sounds like a defective software glitch to me. This could have dire consequences when prompt opening of all the vehicle's doors is needed during emergencies, and many families with children depend upon minivans like ours.
