no that is HVAC (my best ESP lame guess is)
HVAC is AC cooling lines , most are shinny aluminum.
and all have high side / low side R134 port fittings
if they leak then the fitting valve is a wreck.
and needs full AC vacuum pump down and refill. after new valve bad is replaced. first. at (evacuate and store step done)
using cheap gauges does that, if the gauge fitting is dirty .
or your R134a fill port is dirty and you connect them. you wreck the valve. with junk. (or both dirty, wow)
we blow them out first with shop air to avoid that bad act;.
if lucky (not now too late) tickle the valve until it shuts off.
I take help from online websites that have this service like helping in repair some like reliable-store have instant help.. others are a bit slow which I don't prefer... rest is up to u.. U can also get free manuals
Unplug connector to lock actuator and use meter to check for power and ground toggle as you use the door lock button. If you see power and ground toggle, then the problem is the actuator. Replace it/them. If no power/ground toggle, you've got a wiring problem in the traveling cable at the bottom of the door. VERY VERY common.
Hello Terimau,
The first thing a dealer would do... attempt to
PROGRAM (reacquaint you RKE fob with your Caravan).
Perhaps you overlooked to PROGRAMMING
of the unit... (FOB).
It must be coded into your VEHICLE memory...
ELSE Chrysler Corporation Security would be
an eBay sale away from total defeat.
RKE (remote keyless entry) is covered
in detail on pages 10,14,22,23,28,29,42,46-49,94 & 151
in your owners manual as seen below

Hope this gets you started...

Your problem is almost never jumped timing. Won't start or even try to start with starter fluid? It probably lost spark (ignition). Do as boaauto says and check for spark on a plug wire. Look for a sharp blue spark. If none on that plug wire, try one more. Orange or intermittent spark is same problem as no spark. Loss of ignition spark could be due to bad coil, bad ignition coil control module (ICM), bad or missing crank position sensor, or a problem in the pcm (which is least likely possibility).
A cheap spark tester should be purchased for spark testing- that way you stand no chance of getting an electrical shock when testing.
Belt idler pully or tensioner pully maybe . Pull the serpentine belt off an see if the noise goes away . Just running the engine for a second or two you should be able to tell , an this will not hurt anything .
Replace the temperature sending unit/sensor. This sensor tells the computer to put the engine into cold start mode and it then sets idle a bit higher and puts a bit more fuel into the engine to keep it running without having to touch the throttle. Once it's warm, sensor tells computer to go to normal run mode and it's done. No problem.
More information would be needed if the check engine light displayed more codes after the EGR was replaced . Just because the code shows up does not always mean that is the part that failed. Looks like there is more to the issue here . you might even have a fuel filter or pump problem if your losing power at speed. . I would take it to your local auto parts store and have them read what codes are stored in the van.
If the fuse blows right as soon as it is pushed in , you have a dead short to ground . Just from reading your post , i gather you have no clue about automotive electrical systems an circuit's . I have thrity years experience diagnosing automotive electrical problem's ! It is my professional opinion that you should take your vehicle to a qualified repair shop , one that specializes in automotive electrical system's repair . To fix this could mean taking part's of your vehicle apart to access wire harnesses , suppose the problem was behind the instrument panel an it had to come out to get at the harness ? Need special tool's , wiring diagrams , harness routing information , not to mention knowledge. Do you know what a wiring diagram is ? How to use it to pin point locations in a electrical circuit for testing ? Know what a DMM - digital multi-meter is ,an how to use it ?

Enter vehicle info. year , make , model an engine size. Under system click on HVAC ,then under subsystem click on HVAC controls . Then click the search button , then click the first blue link . This is a diagram of the front blower electrical circuit . I believe this is a seperate problem from the blown fuse problem . This could just be a relay or resistor or the blower motor is bad . Try your hand at this first , buy a cheap multimeter an test the B+ voltage through the circuit , from the relay to the fuse , to the blower motor ,an so on . Watch these video's
