Electrical issues!!!
Electrical issues!!!
I have a 2006 crossfire and my windows won’t roll down . There is no noise when I press either power button. My hazards are not working and my switch that deploys the rear wing is not working either . The heated seats switch , radio and interior lighting works. I replaced all the fuses under the hood in the main fuse box as well as the fuses on the left side of the dash Please help
Re: Electrical issues!!!
I do not know why amx1397, who is very knowledgeable about the Crossfire is suggesting to replace the Relay Control Module.
I know the Body Control Module controls the windows and the wing (not sure about the hazards). First check fuse 19 under the hood. It powers the BCM and should be hot all the time. If you do have power supplied to that fuse be certain the fuse is good. At that point if you still have trouble with the windows and the wing I would suspect the BCM. Before buying another I would try to meet with another Crossfire of the same type as yours. Coupe to coupe, roadster to roadster and swap the BCM module from the good samaritan's car to yours and see if it corrects the problem, before throwing parts at a problem that is not clearly identified.

Was anything done to the car recently?
Re: Electrical issues!!!
Nothing was recently done to the car. The windows were rolling down and 20 min later they didn’t. The car sat for a year and I never had these issues before

Re: Electrical issues!!!
it is located in the box with the ecu (computer) right in front of the batt. once the cover is removed, look in the container toward the center of the car you will see some fuses that is the rcm (k40) here are some info and pic. read the complete thd. https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...-no-start.html
Re: Electrical issues!!!
The diagram explains why your washer water is working, but the wiper blades do not. The problems PAMLRLTN is having with the windows and the wing and the wipers are all connected/control by the Body Control Module. They do not have anything to do with the RCM as pictured in the link in post number 9 other than the fact the BCM is also located in the same large black plastic box. I continue to recommend you try to find another Crossfire of the same type as yours and exchange BCM to see if your problems are corrected. Or check for power at the number C4 harness connector on the BCM when the key is turned to the on position. If you have power at the C4 connector of 12volts or a little more, then replace the BCM. That will correct your problems.
PS. "Fuse 19 works . I replaced it with a brand new one and I’m still having the same issues . Also I tested my windshield wipers and they aren’t functioning either but the washer fluid comes out" I am not convinced you have power at fuse 19. Did you insert a volt meter into the fuse slot and measure the voltage? Just because you put a new fuse in the slot doesn't clarify the power issue.

Re: Electrical issues!!!
PAMLRLTN, please do not take your car to a Chrysler dealer. 99% can no longer diagnose your cars troubles as they have changed their computer language and the equipment they have will no longer properly connect to the Crossfire. Their parts are very expensive and most are no longer in the system. Your best way forward is to go to an independent shop that specializes in european cars. Remenber the Crossfire is basically a Mercedes 2003 SLK 32. However, an SLK 32 Body Control Module will not work properly in our cars. You can find a used one online at Redlineautoparts.com or a good junkyard.

Re: Electrical issues!!!
IN any case where the BCM is suspected, and I do support some suspicion of the BCM, I'd replace the car's battery and use a wire brush on the battery cable connectors at the same time.
Also, any Crossfire that sat a year needs a new battery. PERIOD.
And any person who says, "I'll have the battery tested" after reading this post is beyond hope and should sell the car as-is.
ONE OTHER THING, where did the car sit? What assurances can you give that you do not have rodent damage to the wiring harness?

Re: Electrical issues!!!
It is my understanding that the BCM is generic and has no specific information in it, a BCM is a BCM.
NOW, I do believe the SRT and Base/Limited BCMs are different, but I can't say that for sure. If you car is an SRT, get a BCM from an SRT - if not an SRT make sure the BCM didn't come from an SRT.
I THINK I read that the Coupe and Roadster take the same BCM, which surprises me, because the BCM in the Roadster has control over the windows when you move the top.
Just get a BCM from the same configuration (coupe or roadster) and trim level (SRT or Base/Limited) and you should be fine.
