Consumer Description

FUEL RELAY BYPASS. WHEN I TRIED TO START MY DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WHICH WAS PARKED DRIVEWAY IN MY DRIVEWAY IT WOULD NOT START. IT WAS NOT GETTING FUEL. EVENTUALLY IT DID START. WHEN I TRIED TO START MY VAN IN MY DRIVEWAY IT WOULD NOT GET FIEL TO START.THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AFTER THIS. I FOUND A YOUTUBE VIDEO THAT EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM. I HAD TO BYPASS THE FUEL RELAY. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE CARAVAN. IF I HAD TO REPLACE THE ICBM IT WOULD COST $1200. THIS ITEM IS RECALLED ON OTHER DODGE PRODUCTS AND SHOULD BE ON THE CARAVAN.
