"that is classic IC pump, or SC temp sensor, one or the other....sensor says too hot, shuts down SC...or pump isn't pumping, sensor says too hot, shut down SC....take her to the dealership....tell them to fix it...check pump and/or sensor...."

 

If I am not mistaken the IC pump usually goes hand in hand with the temp sensor?? did they replace that too?

 

hahah faiz you beat me by 28 seconds

 

I had the same problem I was told that the IC pump was going bad and to get a Johnson pump to cure my problem. So I spent $170 got the pump, installed it and...you guessed it, same problem.
Woody told me to move the heat exchanger higher up into the air flow. I did that and have been problem free ever since. That includes while running stacked pulleys.
Might be worth a try. Worked for me!

 

good job nice to know plenty of board members to help out other members and be more effective than a dealership without spending a dime lol.

 

We were all trained by Woody.

 

I do believe Woody also said something about bleeding the air out after a pump install.

 

The I/C is above the h/e and the bleeding is difficult, there are posts that I did to show how to get the air out, and it takes time. Mostly you need to add a hose clamp to restrict the hose for a while 15 minutes. Tighten it to about half no more constrictiong the hose to allow additional bleed to the tank.
Be well, Woody Check my gallery


On the I/c the lower hose is the goesinta and the upper hose is the goesouta for your info.

 

Check fuse #13 it's a red 10 amp for the pump. If it is blown the pump won't be working.

 

Thanks for the help everyone I will talk to the dealership tomorrow about the temp sensor and making sure the IC pump was properly bled.

 

When my s/c worked intermittently this fall, I searched all the threads and printed those that indicated intercooler and sensor. After dialog with Chrysler, that's what the dealer replaced and until I put her up on 10/30, the problem was solved. Hopefully it will remain solved next summer.

Have them replace the sensor.

 

Was thisd a Chrysler Dealer?
I can't imagine them not noticing there was no supercharger function.
I know some are bad but that bad?
When you took it in did you tell them the Supercharger wasn't working or that you needed a new pump?

It was a Chrysler dealer, told them the Supercharger was not working. They replaced the Aux Water Pump (which is the IC pump). Worked ok on Saturday when I picked it up but I noticed Sunday, when I had a stretch of open highway that is had shut down again. Not sure if they replaced the sensor, going to ask that tomorrow when I drop it off and pick up my minivan loaner...

 

Well, getting back today. Fuse contacts needed to be replaced. Great call Robbie 363. Got to love being on this forum...
