Question 2
1997 plymouth voyager replaced bad starter and not starting?...  ok.. 1997 voyager would not start so we removed starter and had it tested to be a bad starter...bought a new one and replaced it. Still not starting....when you turn the key it makes a ckick noise and then you can hear a spinning noise like the bendix is not engaging the fly wheel. it is a 1997 plymouth oyager 3 liter V6.
k thank you, but the battery is in good shape and we cleaned the terminals too. we had the battery on jump start and still did th same thing
ok...they checkd the starter when i bought it and we also checked it with the battery carger...the bendix comes out and spinns

Answers
1)   The clicking sound indicates a weak battery ... try it with a boost or charged battery - lanhill

2)   it is very possible that the "new" starter is junk too,ive been amechanic 20 yrs and had a lot of new junk.just a thought. - Danie

3)   If the battery is good and the engine is not seized the new starter is garbage. - jim m

Question 4
1998 plymonth voyager?...  my abs light stays on some times & all of my gauges wont work sometimes it will work perfect sometimes not so what could be the problem ?please help me please?

Answers
1)   The cluster gauge assembly is probably faulty they tend to end up with bad grounds or bad soldering circuits on their circuit boards so try a used cluster from a U pull auto wreckers and see if that fixes your problem.



Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way the ABS light problem could be the cluster but more then likely you've a bad abs sensor so I suggest to get it scanned once you replace the cluster. - helpful bob

2)   First go to a qualified mechanic and have them pull the codes from your ABS computer to see whats wrong, and if the cluster module code comes up you have to have your cluster rebuilt, if not it maybe in your brake system or body controller.
If the cluster has to be rebuilt, try www.prospeedo.com - rick b

3)   it could be and probably is the gauge cluster,there is a company called united radio that fixes them,im unsure of the address,but you ship it to them and they send it back fixed.usually far cheaper than new,or rolling the dice on a used one. - Danie

Question 5
97 Chrysler Concorde code 43. No spark at spark plugs, help please.?...  I have changed the computer already and I looked around on the internet for help. would the park/ neutral switch cause no spark at plugs?
I'm currently of the impression that it is the ignition coil. this started a while ago when my car shut off pulling into park, and the steering wheel locked. in order to start it ( after much frustration) I had to pull the wheel to the right while turning the key. When it shut off on me this time, I was parking as well, but the steering wheel did not lock. and help and questions to narrow down welcome.
code 43 Peak primary coil current not achieved with max dwell time OR Cylinder misfire Problem in power module to logic module interface

Answers
1)   look like coil pack,but check power who go in to the coil - oskarciu

2)   Before changing the coil, check your sparkplugs and ign. wires. - C-Tech

3)   It's quite common for those coil packs to be faulty but clean the contacts at the plug in connector , check the ground and take a good look at the coil packs housing look for any cracks or discolouring or bulges , all are clear signs of a faulty coil pack.

The neutral safety switch on those cars is inside the transmission but one test you can try is pop out the starter relay that's in the black box under the hood , one of the sockets connectors should give you a solid ground signal with the transmission in park or neutral.If there is no ground at that socket the starter won't engage.



Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way the U pull auto wreckers should have lots of those coil packs and the 3.3's are the same coil packs , also if you had to tinker with the steering wheel it's possible you've a bad ignition , but if you've a second key try it.Plus the gear shifter could be out of adjustment , it has two cables and make sure the gear shifter is in park fully when you try to start it.Last note from my service manual and code list code 43 is mentioned 3 different times and always misfiring problems so once again try another coil pack. - helpful bob
