The 1997 Chrysler Town and Country Starting System consists of ignition switch, starter relay, powertrain control module (PCM) double start override, neutral starting and back up switch with automatic transmission only, wiring harness, battery, starter motor with integral solenoid, positive temperature coefficient (which is the circuit protection for the ignition feed to the starter relay coil. The PTC is located in the Junction Block).
These components form two separate circuits. A high amperage circuit that feeds the starter motor up to 300+ amps, and a control circuit that operates on less than 20 amps. The following schematic diagram shows the interconnection between 1997 Chrysler Town and Country Starting System Component.

I have a 1997 chrysler town and country.the problem is with the power turning off on my instrument panel so I drive around with the dash off and pull the instument panel to press the wire harness in the back and reconnect the power to the panel board. many sites have suggested resaudering the connections. there seem to be a lot of other vehicles with this part and problem? I’m not sure how to fix this?
I urge anyone with this problem to call ODI, office of defects investigation at 1-888-327-4236 and file a complaint as I did. the instument panel costs $600-$1000 to replace this part. the replacement is the same part and has no guarentees it wont have the same problem? this is a defect and the manufacturer should fix the production of the part properly!
