Boy, been a long time since I updated this thread! So, I did remove one of the two brake pressure sensors on the Master cylinder and of course it didn't solve the Bas dash light problem. Then I removed the second one located under the front of the master next to the master support bracket, and wow, that one was the defective sensor. Working perfectly now.
I bought a used cigarette lighter assembly and was able to remove and replace it without disassembling any of the front dash. All is well there now, too.
Next, I removed the leaking valve cover breather covers and reset them with RTV silicone and no more oil leaks. Glad to get rid of that mess.
And a problem I had not encountered with a Crossfire before decided to challenge me this early spring. Went outside to do some work and noticed the driving lights were shinning brightly even though I had not been near the car for several days. What the heck. I pulled the fuse and then started to research what that cause could be. Found out the electro pneumatic pump and associated wiring can get shorted out if moisture is accumulating in the trunk. That can cause the driving lights to turn on and not go off again. Since it rains for about six months a year here in northwest Oregon, I decided to investigate. Once a person gets all the hatch area plastic coverings out of the way, the foam inserts that cover and quiet the pump assembly can be removed to access the lower trunk area. I then discovered an inch or so of Oregon rainwater in the trunk area. Removed the plug in the floor of the trunk, removed the spongy foam, encasing the pump assembly only to find the foam had absorbed more rainwater and somehow shorted the driving light circuit. Then discovered the rubber gasket around the gas filler had been letting water drip into the trunk. Also removed and resealed both tail light assemblies since water had been getting in there as well. Dried out the sponge rubber covering that covers the pump assembly. Let the hatch area dry for about ten days and reinstalled the fuse to the circuit and behold no more phantom driving light problem. All working well there. But before reassembling the trunk area, I wrapped the pump and the stupid idea sponge rubber covering it, with poly plastic to prevent any water drips from saturating the foam and shorting the pumps wiring and associated modules. Not sure why, even twenty years ago, it was thought that an electro pneumatic pump makes a good way to lock and unlock your car! And help turn on the lights while you lock the car! Sorry for the rant.
The exterior door handles and windshield moldings were showing serious degradation after twenty years of the car mostly being parked outside. So, I bought some Duplicolor Silver Metallic spray paint "PS2 Chrysler" color which is a perfect match for the original silver on these cars. Last week I sanded the door handles, in place, masked them of, sprayed them Silver Metallic and clear coated them and they looked supper. So, just today, I sanded the window trim, masked everything with care, and primed, sprayed , and clear coated the windshield trim pieces. Turned out really good. I was worried about doing them in place, but did not want to break the trim while removing the pieces. Taking plenty of time to mask the area made the effort worthwhile. Really happy with the finished look.
I still have to remove the front bumper/facia and get a better fit to the driver side interface between the bumper and driver side fender. Then will need to repaint the bumper before reinstalling.
I have found the heated seats only work on the passenger seat back. Other three elements likely have broken wires.
That pretty much sums up the car upgrade/repair process since I bought it just about a year ago. Anybody need a refreshed Crossfire? I''m still not liking the "granny" first gear in the transmission. Maybe replace this one with and SRT6. Thanks for looking.
