2006 Chrysler 300 - Page 3 Questions & Answers
On the Chrysler 300, 06. The old pump and the new pump comes on for 2 to 5 sec then stops running. Engine sounds like its. Not getting any gas. Trying to locate the fuel release VAL under Hood.
The fuel pump normally only comes on for a second unless the car starts and is running, if the car starts and the pump only runs for a few seconds, then there is a problem with the engine signal to the ecm, ie its not telling the computer that it is running. I dont believe there is a schrader valve on those fuel lines, if there is, chrysler probably put it underneath the intake plenum. If the car will not start, but you hear the fuel pump kick on and off, it could have a clogged fuel filter, or injectors, or even bad connections going to the injectors. They normally are all switched via the ground wire for each injector, so if they are not cycling it could be a bad ecm, or bad connection somewhere in the wiring harness
After fueling it stalls
I think there is a dealer letter about this and a factory fix, check with the local dealer.
Hear a tapping sound after start up. saw a electronic throttle light come on and go back out. after driving a bit it stops but when start up it does it again
could be a problem hydraulic cam follower that is bleeding down too fast and dropping off oil pressure
If the mileage is up on the engine a bleed down test of all hydraulic followers would be in order
If you have had a oil change recently, check the quality of the oil filter used as el-cheapo filters do not have a check valve incorporated and when the engine is shut down all of the oil that is normally held in the oil passages is allowed to drain back to the sump
In the normal process the bearings get oil first and the rocker gear last so the tapping could be a delay to build up oil pressure that operates the hydraulic followers
How can I relearn my TPMS?
Dealer does that nonsense. Those tpms systems are one of the worst things ever concocted. And when the battery dies you have to replace the unit and have it reset by dealer. Part alone is usually 100 dollars or more.
Next time it happens in future do NOT replace the tpms sender - carefully open, remove and replace the wax encapsulated battery with another battery. Since you are putting back the SAME unit it does not have to have the car computer recalibrated!!!!!!
What would keep the cooling fan from coming on?
Check in the engine compartment fuse box (a.k.a. Integrated Power Module, or IPM), Fuse No 19, 50A.
Also check the "Relay - Radiator Fan High/Low Control" and the "Relay - Radiator fan control", both of which are located in the IPM. Check inside the IPM's lid for relay locations.
How do I take a starter out of my 2006 Chrysler 300
You first disconnect the negitive battery cable at the battery .
Then you will need to jack the vehicle up enough to crawl under it use a jack stand never trust the jack your life depends on it .
Their will be 2 bolts 14 to 15 mm mabay a bite larger that hold the starter to the bell houseing remove them .Now the starter will come out you may need to minuver it some to make come out but it will drop out .
Then disconnect the copper wire its an iliot and what ever blade connecters if any to the solenoid on the starter .
Then install in reverse its a job that uselly takes under an hour return the old starter for the recore its worth 20 to 30 dollars
Just change fuel pump an still won't start.
This will take several tests so when you have time let me know and we will begin. If your advanced enough I will lay out a few tests.
1. When you turn on the key do you actually hear the pump working?
2. Make sure the connection to the new fuel pump is tightly put together and saftey pin is put back in and if still possible to access wiring still test for power to the pump with wire tester or ohm meter in the connection union.
3. If not check all fuses under the hood and inside the car, make sure they are good whth a test light or ohm meter.
4. Have the fuel solenoid checked or basically purchase a new on they are not expensive anyway.
5 have scanner put on the car make sure all the Cam Sensor,,Crank sensor, Throttle Position Sensor etc, we are looking for any item caught in live data or engine light is on.
6. Make sure battery is connected tightly and is fully charged (FULLY CHARGED) a weak battery reaks havoc on an electrical system. I am fully positive doing the 6 stages you will find your problem I assure you, and you can get a cheap 40 dollar OBD scan tool code reader at autozone or where ever you may shop.
After before all this make sure the security has not been triggered during your work with the new pump!! if it has cycle the remote with full lock and unloce 1 with the key cycle it un and lock with remote is first then lock with remote and open with key. should solve this problem for you.
anything else just ask. thanks the fixya team
