| Description of the problem | Driving down the road when suddenly the horn started honking,wipers started on their own as well as wiper fluid squirting , radio came on and lights turning on and off. Pulled over and even after the car was turned off and key removed ignition the car remained running with all electrical equipment running off and on. It seems that many other people have had this problem with their jeep/ chrysler vehicles. I replaced the battery cables and started the car again, it was fine for about 30 seconds then it all happened again until i removed the battery cables. I removed the battery cables to the car because i'm concerned that the electrical problem may cause a fire under the hood and possibly burn my house down. |
