Does it start right back up or do you have to let it cool down first ? Could be any number of electrical problems including relays or a weak fuel pump. Turning the wheel could kill the engine if the power steering is having problems, or if there is a short in the wiring in the column.

first off need to make sure vehicle is started (or at least key in on position) and foot on brake....make sure battery is fully charged as well.

a fuse or relay should fix it

check the grounds on your fuel tank sending unit,must drop the tank to do this. with the tank down,remove the ground and look at your fuel gauge it should read full or empty,if it does not it may be a sending unit

It sounds very much that you have a bad earth on the connection. Try checking the plug connection

check fuel pressure and spark ?

Not sure about 1996, but the 1997 3.0L has it built into the camshaft that's inside the head. In other words, you don't have any access to it, only the crankshaft sensor is accessible, the 1996 may be the same.

Sorry but I don't have that information on file but it shouldn't be difficult to find because it has to be situated close to the camshaft. Bear in mind the fault code definition says the cam sensor or circuit which means the wiring and connectors back to the ECU and part of the ECU itself. Internal breaks in the wiring harness where the wiring is subject to heat and vibration are far from unknown while cam sensors are fairly reliable. I hope you will be lucky.

Dimmer switch. Body control module.

Check fuse or bulb.

Check the battery cable ends to be sure they are tight and wont twist, I had this happen on my 96 grand caravan two years ago.

the caravan might be the same as my dodge neon. there is a cover plate in the wheel well that you have to remove to gain access to the alternator Hope this helps you Good luck
