It can take out the control module for the alarm and door lock system and cause issues. Only the Chrysler dealers system can read the alarm trigger codes (I have yet to see a scanner system gain access to that section of the system).
I chased an alarm problem for months with random triggers and while many here on the forum were calling for replacing alarm sirens, it turned out to be the switch in the glove box that was tripping the system when it got too hot or too cold.
So I just took out the light bulb in the glove box to see if this will take care off my issues with the driver door not locking with remote (but it locks with the key), top not cosing when its open ( afraid to open it because it might not close anymore
). alarm randomly upcoming for no reason.I have not found any water in the trunk, even if maybe dried itself, I would have seen rust on the screwdriver what was laying there.
Plus I am having now these issues also:
1)My AC is blowing when she wants, even when turned off, randomly turns off and on itself ????
2) tonight my right rear side light isn't working anymore and I just had to replace my right rear brake light bulb 2 days ago
How in the heck I can change the lightbulb there????
3) my check engine light still on, did not had time to drive to a MB shop. Searched for any clues. The engine is making a strange noise as well. I want to see if I can tape it and attach it here. Maybe it tells you guys something ???? Still driving the car with no issues other than a little weird shaking when the engine is running when the car stands still. Can this not be related to something specific?
I wish I could fix all those issues myself. I feel capable, I just don't know what the parts are called, where they are located and what they are there for. Pisses me off, I should study this stuff.
