- In this video I have a look at a customers 2006 Chrysler Town and Country. The customer complaint is that the fan runs at random even after you turn the car off! Well that's no good. Let's have a look ad see if we can fix it.
-Enjoy!

Man the window always gets me . Cause the #1 rule with mid 2k cars is never get out of the car with the key in without the window down . Cause to many of them p.o.s will autolock on ya .
That's why I still like the old crank windows and push button locks!
If the car is possessed why didn't you walked around the car spraying break cleaner and screaming " Get out of this car, the power of Chrysler compels you"?
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@iaov Of course, because it's a "displacer" not a lubricant. 😏😀
This comment will never never fully be appreciated as it should be hats off to you sir you have my respect
To me, the best part of watching your videos is I get to learn something in nearly every one of them. I like that you don't try to be a comedian throughout the video, and you are actually interested in teaching us DIYers something that can save us both time and money. "Thanks for watching," oops, I mean, "thanks for the lesson."
I hate Chrysler window regulators. It doesn't have to be a crapbox. I've seen several late model Grand Caravans come in for scheduled maintenance and their window regulator fails just rolling it up when you park it in the done lot. I share in your pain but, I was always taught to roll the driver's window down when it's in the shop. Great video as always!!!
I think I'm most amazed one of these minivans still exists in your area. I've seen so many late model rust boxes on this channel and I know how bad these rust here.
I think its cool that you don't decline work on these older cars. I see a lot of shops turn away older cars which leaves people who own them with less options for repair.
As someone who used to work on rustbelt cars, I really can't blame shops for turning away old rusty vehicles. That 5 minute job turns into a 6-hour ordeal and who pays for it?
The customer? The shop eats it? The flat rate Tech get screwed over?
Yeah totally agree with turning away rusted out shit boxes! I know it kind of screws the customer over but shops are trying to make money and that's not the way to do it!
Eric can do it because of his unique situation in a small town where everybody knows everybody and I'm sure his overhead costs are very low compared to a major shop in a big city.
@@lustfulvengance I don’t blame them at all. To me it’s no different than declining a repair on a car that’s butchered or fixed improperly. I don’t understand the blanket decline but a case by case makes sense.
@@I_Do_Cars i always knew your a man of high quality. Just didn't expect you see you here.
My old 07 runs great/ a little of the running board area missing/ fenders and rear hatch is starting to go, but my new Corrolla Cross wont be delivered till Feb 23! Maybe ... I love the old gal as long as you dont mind working on them. Last one of two for me. Never again. 500/300 thousand on each. Parts are cheap & the heater runs fantastic. Not many parts I 'havent changed on her'. Haven't had her in a garage in over 10 years. Fix her all myself. A learning cure to be truthful. l I live in Canastan north of S M A
2006 caravan , 6 cylinder , great heat, good power, did the rust repairs myself.
The interior is still great looking at 100,000 miles
The local shop Changed the coils a few years ago and did the 4 brakes a year later
It’s the best vehicle I’ve owned,always starts
Nothing like experience to help you diagnose a weird problem on a Friday. Well done as always Mr. O
"Doctor O"
"Remember if I could do it ...suggest you definitely didn't"
The thing about the windows makes sense to me now. When I worked at a dealership, we always put the driver window down. It used to be not to take any chance that you would lock the keys in. These days most cars wont let you lock the keys inside, but it's still just habit. Most of what we worked on was newer so there generally wasn't much chance of a window not working, but now that I work on junk, it makes a lot more sense lol
Yeah,they're all junk! Some even outta the factory, they are still junk!!! Lol
@@mauricegd oh you have that right. I got out of the trade in January and just do my own and family/friend stuff now. Some of the problems new vehicles had were amazing. My favorite mess up on a new vehicle was a pdi I did to a truck. Got inside and thought the seat was broken, but it turned out they had only installed 1 of 6 bolts holding the 60/40 bench to the floor. There's no way that truck made it all the way to the dealership without someone else noticing the seat flipping around, but it was a textbook cade of "not my problem" lol
When I work on one of my own vehicles, or even stop for gas, I leave the window down halfway. Of course my 1970 and 1971 VWs, my 1988 Mazda truck, and my 1998 Frontier all have roll-up windows, but my 2004 Frontier does have power windows (which I hate). I also hate no door lock cylinder on the passenger door !!! I don't use fobs !!!
Lmao, loved watching Eric O. go nuts on a power window that doesn't go back up. Funny how we don't get informed of these things and we don't become aware of it till we're done and parking it back outside. I always make the same bleeping reaction! Love it!!! Lol
I don't know the party involved but if they tell you then they can't turn around and say oh it was working fine when I brought it in have a great day
When I saw the heat sink I realized this must be similar to control of a blower motor, with some kind of field effect transistor that adjusts current output based on input from the pcm. It was wise to not incorporate that in a full module, since repair costs would be dramatically higher. Also with high heat output it could damage other sensitive components, so better to mount it by itself near a source of fresh air.
Flawed design, failure prone and rivited in no less, wonder how Honda and Toyota did it.
Damn mr o. This was like the trifecta this week
I feel ya on the window issue. I’ve had 2 Chrysler vans in a row that when I rolled it down you could hear the cable assembly explode in there. As a rule I don’t touch anything the customer didn’t ask me to work on but over the years of cars locking themselves I made an exception for drivers window
My passenger window wouldn’t work in my 2007 caravan the grounds by the pillar between the sliding and front doors on both sides are common causes of window and power lock issues if the actuator is good. I managed to clean the contacts on my switch after cleaning up the ground and that got the window working. I’m not saying your actuator didn’t go just what fixed mine. Also had no cooling fan when I bought it and did this relay and it stuck on like this a few years later. No headlights or washer fluid pump either and that was a pin on board by the tipm that I squished a little oval so it made a better connection. These vans seem to have more electrical problems than anything I’ve owned
@@IhaveaDoghouse Who buys those vans anymore?
@@davesaunders7080 probably mostly people who need cheap wheels with some space like for me I moved and needed to get an out of province inspection on 3+ vehicles that I have owned for years, some have new crate motors or rebuilt transmissions; I don’t want to sell them and roll the dice on buying all new vehicles that I don’t know the maintenance history. It was easier at the time to just buy a vehicle from here that I could insure right away cause I knew I had a bit of work to do on my vehicles besides the drivetrains for them to pass.
My gf and I liked it a lot. Decent on gas, lots of room and cheap to buy. And the front seats are actually quite comfortable for long drives. It’s parked now since we have 3 vehicles that we got passed inspection that we already owned but once my girlfriends first car dies she wants to drive the van again.
The van is the newest vehicle I have ever owned and it’s starting to have too much electronics for my liking. Not to mention dodge with their tipm seems to have way more electrical issues than any other make. I’m an electrician but I prefer my vehicles to have as few relays and unnecessary electronics as possible. I have a 1980 GMC suburban. A 1995 gmc k1500 and a 1996 corolla and my gf has her grandpas 2001 impala that was her first car so hopefully that gives you an idea of who buys these lol. If I had more money and was planning on keeping it longer as a main vehicle then I would recommend a Honda or Toyota van for sure but they are 3x the price so for something that I could insure that day this did the job.
Legally speaking I'm pretty sure the drivers window has to function? At least to pass a safety around here I know it does.
Back in the late 70's when I was first started working in a repair shop, the boss told me to "NEVER TOUCH THE POWER WINDOWS SWITCH!!!!" 45 years later it's still great advice.
You are one of the best automotive repair channels on CZcams!
You are way better than SK, bc you show how to fix, repair, diagnose or repair vehicles from start to finish.
Your methods are logical and you are an absolute treasure on CZcams.
It seems Chrysler's most common issues, at least from the 2000's to early 2010's, are the wiring, certain electrical components such as the TIPM, transmission control solenoid, brakes and wheel bearings.
Those are the most common issues I see you working on Chryslers of this era.
Rarely do I see Chryslers coming in for engine, driveline or driveability issues in your shop.
As a hearing impaired person, I want to let you know how much I appreciate your honesty. Many repair places would haven’t have been as honest and the person guy would have walked out with many more repairs than needed.
Thank you. ❤
When working for an RV dealership, they sent us to a Fleetwood service training seminar.
At the seminar we were told to never change any customer settings unless absolutely necessary or it was involved in the service process.
Some customers get real triggered when their seat settings, climate control settings, or any of interior adjustments are moved or changed and it can turn a happy customer into a raging or unhappy customer that doesn't come back or gives your business a bad reputation even though the service work was performed flawlessly.
@n325aej Fully agree - I get my mobile set as I want it, and then an update changes all the settings and layout..😡
Yeah if the road test is necessary you have to change a seat customer don't like bring your car somewhere else
People are asshoe!
Really ... so how does a 6'6" mechanic drive a car set up for a 5'6" owner...???
Customers that are that stupid should go elsewhere.
They are just trouble waiting to happen. They usually find something you caused, even though you never touched that part at all, or that rusted scratch which has obviously been there for years is something you caused.
IMHO, they are not worth having as customers for the most part, (there are exceptions).
Sure you should try and put things back as you found them, but things like seat positions are hard to get exactly.
Eric, surprised that you didn't mention anything about the recall on that relay. There was a recall on that relay back in the day, I've done a few of them. That's the first time I've heard of that rule about the windows. I always roll the driver's window down when I pull the vehicle into my bay, or if that one doesn't work, a least one of the other windows. Reason being that back in the 90's, there was an alarm system that was very popular then that would automatically lock the doors when you get out and close the door. Got burned a couple of times that way, so I have been rolling down a window ever since, and still do to this day.
Our shop rule is to ask, if it is necessary, if we can roll down the windows or move the seat to do the job. CYA!
Happened to me in my 91 Bonneville when I was younger. Engine running, but luckily the hood was open so I was at least able to block the intake to shut off the engine.
I had a VW Jetta go totally berserk before, key in, engine running, drivers windows down (or was). turns out the bad drivers door harness didn't like being opened very far and rain storms. the thing locked the doors, window closed it self, alarm was blaring and wouldn't stop and all sorts of other theatrics at once. I never did figure out how it thought the car was off to engage alarm, but fixing the multiple bad wires at door harness flex and plug fixed it. I was only doing the "brakes", and what I got was the breaks! 🤯
The look in your eyes when the window failed said it all!
Major down side of solid state relay is fail in run mode, upside is variable output (when working). Thanks for the video.
Honestly, it’s better to fail with the cooling fan relay on than off. Worst case with the relay failing on is a dead battery. Worst case with it failing off is a roasted engine/transmission (both cooled by coolant/radiator)
Nice spot for Relay! Thanks Chrysler..
I absolutely appreciate these videos Mr O, it's always great to learn something new every day!
Eric, with 28 years of technical training and course development experience in another field behind me now, (I'm retired) I can honestly say that was an eloquent explanation. Loved It! Thank You Sir!
PWM driving a relay?? Must be a solid state one then, and more of a motor speed controller?
Thanks for the videos Eric, I watch every one.
Definitely spoiled us this week appreciate all the content hope you and the family had a great weekend Thanks Mr O
Sounded at first like we were gonna get treated to an F bomb!
it was a close one....
Biggest SMA FAN right here.
I didn't build it.....
I didn't buy it.....
I didn't break it.....
I just try to "fan" the flames......
Ship It......
And welcome back to the South Main Auto Channel
New Tech, Gotta Love it. Good to no where the Silly Relay Lives tho, and how it works. Nicely done once again E. O.
My 2003 Town & Country - I replaced the driver's door window regulator on two separate occasions, but many years apart. After the second replacement on very hot scorching days the window would dislodge and fall into door when lowering window then raising it with button. Every time I would find that the window pin would pop out of the regulator. The metal retaining mechanism would never grip it well enough in hot conditions and it would pop apart. I got pretty good beating the clock each time pulling the door cover off to gain access and pop it back together until the next time. The passenger side front door had a faulty down switch, so only the drivers master switch would lower that window.
I owned the van since 2006 since its purchase as a lease turn in with 30k miles. Two weeks ago the van was totalled when a young girl driving a 1998 TJ Wrangler lost control of her Jeep on a straight away in about 3 to 4 inches of snow. She slid sideways into the path of my son's lane sideways. Boom. She was broadside. Police cited her for the accident. The tow bill with 3 days storage easily exceeded the value of the van, then with 269,000 miles. The salvage yard only cared if it still had the original catalytic converter. And it did. The cat was worth more than the van, even before the accident. And Eric, it still had the original 41TE transmission! No kidding! Like the van you were in, the headliner had separated and fell away. It looked ungodly, but the van was well maintained, safe and dependable transportation. It was great to load things into it from Home Depot since I didn't care about scratching the interior.
Overall, a great vehicle all the way around. RIP Chrysler Town & Country.
Merry Christmas to you and Mrs. O.
Its ALWAYS 5pm on friday when you get bit by that. Always. Damn I hated that. Problem is you condition yourself to open the window so you don't lock yourself out....
friggen rivet on a electrical component, there's planning ahead chrysler!
Watched a video of you dismounting tire and noticed you soap the lip of the old tire can't tell.you how many times the tire sticks.and jumps the table. Your the best on CZcams if you only knew how many little things I've learned you are a true professional and I'm jealous of your equipment like the second arm for low pro tires. Probably installed 30 radiators wondering why after market for the bushing so loose until your video. SEE master 40year experience doesn't mean squat you sir is
THE REAL DEAL . Have a lot of respect for you sir in all aspects of life
Good one. Especially the Rant at the end about the window. Not funny but i got a chuckle. The real deal Lucille. Thx for sharing
Mrs O is going to be upset that you’re using her salad bowl as a parts bucket.
Maybe she knows and Eric’s salad tastes oily😂
Another good Samaritan story. You're on a roll here, Eric. I wanted too see how you "fixed" the window issue but it's all good. They always happen on a Friday at closing time so chalk that up to memory.
Sounded like he just mashed the button (was probably failing, not completely failed). But 99% of the time just pulling/pushing it up with your hand while hitting the button will work even if it's completely failed...
@@JohnRunyon, that would make sense. Eric is the king of trying every which way to get a switch such as an ignition to act up or work by messing with it.
I had an odd one last night. Toyota Avalon was rear ended on the freeway and I took it to our storage lot. The driver's window was already down about 5 or 6 inches, so I didn't need to change its position, especially since it was raining all day and I was going to get wet dealing with the load/unload, no matter what. When I got it off the truck, I tried to raise the window closed. It didn't move up at all. It did go down another inch with the button. I tried manually lifting as I worked the button with no luck. I lowered it farther and switched to up, which returned it to the first position. With a little more fiddling, I had it going down and up, but no higher than the first position. Suddenly, the light bulb came on. I started the engine. Zip, it closed right up to the top. All I can chalk it up to is that it needed a little more voltage than just the key ON position could supply. Obviously the folded under exhaust pipe couldn't directly affect the window, but something in the system sure made it do something I'd never experienced before. I'm a long way from new at this, so it's very interesting when something surprises me.
Thanks for all the recent content. I really enjoy watching.
I've learned soooo much from this channel. Thank you south main
Orthodontics by NAPA - not a sponsor. Good job Dr. O! You continue to learn and teach us all.
Excellent piece of advice, 'never touch a customer's electric windows'.. Murphy's law says they're already having trouble with it, or as soon as you open it, or close it, it will break, and you own it.
When they complain about it later it's always best to be able to say in all honesty that you never touched their window controls while you had their vehicle in your shop.
To be honest you know be straight with the customer it's on video and they can see what happened have a great day
@@michaelpressman7203 Yes, but it's the nature of people to try and get something for nothing, or if they really didn't have a problem with the window at all before you touched it they're going to blame you because it was working before and now it isn't and you touched it.
I once changed the clutch on someone's car and got a call a day later that the radio stop working. No joke. I asked them if they understood that pulling the trans, changing the clutch, and putting the trans back in has nothing to do with the radio. They said 'yes, I understand that, BUT it was working before I brought it to you'. I hung up the phone and never saw them again.
I agree it’s a good practice to tell you mechanic about broken windows and car alarms. 😂
Always a pleasure watching your videos. You make it so simple to understand. Thanks for the good content and keep up the good work.
for being pissed off you look so calm to me. great job and your knowledge always helps
Now that you have the fan dilemma solved / fixed - recommend that you can fix his window problem, then diagnose the A/C trouble and what it would cost to fix it !!! It takes more than 12 minutes to drink a coffee and eat a snack, so it's nice to get a longer video to watch. These short ones are good for when you are washing the dishes off for the dishwasher. 🤪 Good train of reasoning on this to get it fixed. As usual, quality workmanship and gentle care of the customers car. Well done, Eric !!!! On to the next one, enjoy your weekend !!!!
Classic fan relay Keeping the fans on while engine off Good Video Eric O @South Main Auto Repair LLC
Cool video Eric always enjoy watching you do your magic.keep them coming.
My fav auto repair channel.
Loving all the uploads lately! Keep em coming!! Have a good weekend
Nice. Putting the window down so as not to get locked out - much foul language has resulted from that habit. Also when they say you have to wiggle the key in the ignition a little to get it to turn - that usually means sit there like an a-hole for 10 minutes f-ing with it.
welcome to my world.... 😐
I've gotten the chevy key shake down pretty good
First time seeing Eric get upset. He is human after all
Always amazed at your knowledge and speed. No missteps. You da man!
What a wonderful place for a relay its like ford with their fuel pump module on trucks and vans on the rear of the frame rail behind the tire
@ David Craven Ford with Fuel Pump Controller on frame crossmember. Don't get the "Undercarriage Wash" at the Automated Car Wash. It'll shut down on you. But, will be fine after it dries out. Fortunately Ford changed how the fuel pump is controlled. Happy Days!
Always like watching your videos you sure do make it look easy. Keep up the great work shout out to you from Mexico.
Two things: 1) I wish you had shown your rivet gun a little better. 2) You could have explained that the fan relay is an electronic device, using a transistor instead of a magnetic coil and contact points. It's really hard to PWM a mechanical relay, as they can't turn on/off as fast as a transistor. I've seen the exact complaint about staying on with A/C blower motors quite a bit.
Pretty common rivet gun....lots of no-name Chinese companies sell them to include Snap-Off, Matcrap, etc. Even Harbor Freight sells one....They work great, just don't pay too much for them and get the one that does multiple sizes of rivets, many of them only do 1 or 2 if you are lucky, the one I have does 4 different sizes and all 4 are pretty common just swap out the nose piece for the different rivet stem sizes.
Point 2 explains the idea of PWM and an electronic relay, not a mechanical one. But what was Eric hearing if it wasn't a mech relay; I thought he heard a click?
I have to admit you do get some Oddball things to fix keep up the good work Eric enjoy watching you work sir
Just when I think I've got some tools, out comes the air powered rivet gun.
As a newer service tech I thank you for explaining stuff even though you know what it is.
You are extremely funny to watch. Remembering the days working on our sons cars and keeping wife and my car going. Way past those days.
Great explanation of the wizardry that is automotive electrics.
I just recently did a fuel pump relay/TIPM bypass on a '12 Hemi Ram. Those Chysler vehicles sure are something.
Love the random green bowl (Probably left over from Lunch) to hold the bits and pieces while you work on this problem.
Great diag Eric O. Had a friends parents that a caravan like that with the same issue.👍
I lost it when that window fudged up on you. 😂 Happened to my dad too many times when he worked on cars at his shop.
I remember there was a time when this was such an incredibly common fault on Chryslers. I’ve replaced so many of these fan relays on all different kinds of Chryslers. The minivans and Grand Cherokee seemed the be the most common. Thankfully they’re external and generally easy to replace.
The size of the heatsink makes sense for the amperage of a solid state component to reduce replacing a mechanical device every oil change. Reminds me of an old Ford ignition module that would fry if it got too hot (undersized). If the relay location was closer to the fans air flow maybe it would last longer. Thanks for showing us the Friday fix and how experience under pressure wins again.
There are many routes to free climb El Capitan. Yours is usually the "third" most direct route that is the fastest and most exciting to watch.
Lol! I hear you about the windows. I only made the mistake once of lowering a window on a vw beetle...
your videos are always top notch
This is a little late because I just saw this, but that relay is a known source of trouble. I relocated the relay on my T&C to a location behind the headlight. Not my idea sorry to say but that's why I love these videos. People smarter than me post here.😂😂
Great rant Mr. O!!
Mr. O 😂the frustrated look on your face due to the window was priceless. 😂 your mechanical assessments are both humbling and amazing. Have learned enough to be dangerous if I were to attempt to do my own repairs. Watching you from Northern Nevada. Have rust issues here due to winter road deicing but not as bad as what you encounter. Hope you and yours have a blessed holiday season. 👍👍👍 if you are called on to do a break job on Santa’s sled or a tune up before his round the world road trip, Maybe put new brake shoes on reindeer etc. please make a video. Merry Christmas 🎄.
Mr O is very committed to finding unique pictures to put on the thumbnails.
You want to know what's up.. I'll tell you what's up... You rock... Excellence , just as we become accustom too. Thank you Sir.
Having a flow chart in your mind, plus experience, makes it look like magic when electrical problems happen by and are fixed without a lot of fuss.
I've said it before that the majority of time in auto repair training class should be on the flow of electrons from control to the component(s) and diagnoses. Without knowing how power flows from control to component, a person is basically flying blind.
I had the drivers side window stuck down in Jan, in Canada. Bought one from a wrecker/ took the original one apart and cleaned the contacts/ now I have a 'back up. Oh Caravan, I outsmarted you old dog! lol
My mom has a 2005 Voyager down in Mexico but w/ manual windows. I know know how to fix a cooling fan thanks to your video.
The AC works great by the way!
Thanks Eric.
Keep cranking these out baby!
Yup, why is always the last call of the day that goes south? Customer was lucky you are the good person you are, thanks for being there Eric.
Quick and out the door! Like an early 90's Ford F250 V8 gas engine with a stuck on fuel pump relay.
Good one Mr.O!
I love ❤a good story congratulations. The ending was a little iffy though. Ho Ho to all and good night.
Thanks for the Sunday night video. Stuck working graveyard shift overtime.
You're the genuine article lol mechanics can cuss like few others. As a fellow tech l enjoy your channel
"My window worked JUST FINE b4 u touched the fan relay!" lol
Well done Mr.O
Common issue up this way. Great job!
we own a dodge journey (2015)- similiar tipm......
ours has two fan relays, 1-for regular driving cycles , and 1- for high speed/ when a/c is on. The 40 to 50amp draw on the cooling fan puts enormous stress on the relay. @ once a year it cooks the regular relay(stuck On) and fan comes on by itself (engine running or not) and will Not turn off til you unplug the relay or pull the fuse. We now carry a spare in the glovebox. Also, if in a pinch you can put the relay used for high speed in the regular spot to get you home. they are the same part number, at least in ours. I have found this to be one of dodges many design issues
My Silverado has manual windows. 100% of the time they work every time. Thanks for the video.
You always make it look so easy.
Great fan repair. Now you have to get that window back up. For every good deed there is a gotcha.
Nice video. I think I missed most of the diagnosis, because I was to focused on your hoodie strings with the fans going at Mach 1. Glad they didn’t get caught and you ending up kissing the radiator support. 😂😂
Hey brother, I love your channel and I'll continue watching as long as you don't change it like rain man ray did , but your channel is way better and way more inspirational then his is ! OK keep up the awesome technical content 👌 👏
I've done a bunch of those relay replacements, never saw one "stuck on" but just not commanding the fan on. I usually don't rivit it back on, just a self-tapper & "ship it!"
Good job. Next, fixing the droopy headliner!
Merry Chrysler to you and your family
Had a 97 T&C that did the same exact thing with the fan relay. I was busy doing all the research I could before firing any parts at it and one of the guys I worked with told me about the relay being a known issue. It was, thankfully the problem!
I feel your pain with broken windows 😂
Lol the window, yep on the junk piles never touch anything.
Good work maestro. 😀😀😀
Well done sir!
Eric,
Don't touch customer's window ... lol 😆 😆
Awesome! A serviceable part held in with a rivet.
Design excellence at it's finest.
On many cars the window motor, window regulator as well as the glass are riveted in.
@@terryharvey8627 Yep. My son and I had to drill some out to replace self-destructed cable style mechanisms.
You know what they say...it's better to be pissed off than pissed on. Enjoy your vids.
