THANK YOU! my ac compressor just got replaced for $1000 and the ac still didn't work. They told me I need to replace my TIPM because there is corrosion on it and it's affecting the temp control. Dealership told me the part would cost $2650 plus HST (Canada). Watched your video and went to a Kenny u pull found the same year caravan, removed the TIPM and installed it in mine. Didn't work right away even with the soft reset, so I did it overnight for a complete reset and BOOM! AC works like a charm. The tip cost me $50! You saved me!! Thank you thank you! Subscribed.
Thank you good sir I think you've legitimately save people across the world probably hundreds of thousands of dollars if not pushing to the seven-figure range. Nothing is affordable anymore so do-it-yourself is going to make a huge comeback. Popular mechanics modern era
An outstanding and thorough video. The dealership got me once before on this replacement. Gave me some BS about a core charge (not documented anywhere) and kept my orig TIPM. It was late, I was tired and broke; I gave up and went home. I’ve never gone back to that dealership, nor any Chrysler dealership since. My thanks to you all; I’ll be taking my swap this time into my own hands (with your help 🙏🏽). Cheers!
You saved me so much money. The dealer wanted $1400. I grabbed a TIPM from the junk yard for $50. Blower motor working like a champ now. Thanks.
SUBSCRIBED!!!
I've just recently purchased one of these vans. The mechanic quoted me $2,200 dollars to fix my 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan's TIPM. If I had that kind of cash, I'd have a 2023! This video is very helpful, and I will be using it to attempt to fix my TIPM. I'll update once the job is done!
😂😂 yep! My dealership said the TIPM and PCM needed replaced and reprogrammed and quoted us almost $2,200 as well and not including almost $250 just to diagnose! The new TIPM's from Dodge aren't even fixed where it doesn't happen again later...only 2 year warranty 🙄 we are replacing both ourselves and PCM with lifetime warranty for under $500! Very grateful for this in depth video!
@@togodbetheglory3353 hey guys how did it go? Were you successful?
Anyone needs to know how to do this watch this guys video My granddaughter and I watched it and then it took us 20 minutes to get the old one out and another 20 minutes to get the new one in. Great video thank you so much
Thank you for the channel. Details excellent.
Excellent video, clearly shows how all the release mechanisms operate for the 7 TIPM connectors.
Glad that you liked our video :-)

I picked up a used TIPM at a junk yard today for $40 All the rest we saw on the internet were above $200. I'm hoping this one is in good working order. It sure will save a lot of money if it is.
UPDATE 3 weeks later. The $40 TIPM was defective. It was installed and every time my mechanic started my van, it died right away. He put the old TIPM back in and changed a solenoid on the front of the transmission and so far, my shifting problems seem to have been corrected.
Absolutely, for $40 what do you have to lose! It's worth a shot for sure. Best of luck with it!

@@YouWrench My 2008 Caravan also had a bad TIPM. That one cost $65 and works like a charm. The van even seems to run better. That is the same van that was using 1 qt of oil per 500 miles. I put a can of Engine Restorer in it and a new PCV valve and now it uses 1/2 qt of oil in 5,500 miles.
thank you for the instructional video,,,,,

Do you use any contact cleaner on the plugs before assembling tipm?
Could you do a reset with the old tipm before trying a replacement unit?
Thanks!
Thank you for your support!
Loved the video. My 2011 Caravan started acting up. Cruse quit then after sitting for a month or so I went to start it and the battery was almost dead, wouldn't crank. I had a little trickle charge device hooked up but not plugged in so I think that drained the battery. Did a quick charge and it started ok. Everything was fine the the dash stopped working and the windshield wipers started running and the controls on the column were dead also. Pulled the J20fuse to stop them. Everything started working again mysteriously and I went to the store. When I drove in the problem happened again. I believe its the TIPM and I am wondering if there are connection problem from corrosion on the TIPM connectors. Does cleaning them up help? I will try your soft reset and see if that works seeing how the problem occur after a low battery event. I would love to here your opinion.
Please help me... i have dodge caravan 2018... recently the break lights didn't turn off and it kept lighting and the only way to turn it off is to remove the battery, and we replaced the brake pedal switch and nothing happened the same problem was here , waiting for your response and thanks !
How would you pinpoint the TIPM as a reason for heating fan in the cabin not working if everything else is working as before ?
( i only unhooked battery 2 -3 times for other repairs ....when connected again , wehicle runs normaly , and everything works . Only heating front blower stopped - was working before battery disconnect ) ????
When installing relays back on board,does it matter how they are installed?
do you know if the left rear turn signal and stop and run go through the tipm my car the left tail turn stop and run do not work when the head lights are on !! ' they work fine other wise ???
Can you reset it on your own or do you have to go to a dealership to get program
Would this cause the alternator and battery to keep dying??
The problem I have is the brake light don’t come on and the turn signal goes fast, also the eco mode doesn’t come on
Thanks
Thank you! :-)

Do you know how to reset the TPMS on an 05 Grand Caravan
Thank you for another fantastic video. I would never attempt to do that job without your instructions.

DID YOU PULL SLACK ON WIRE HARNESS BEFORE FILMING?
Do you need to do any programming ?
Quick question, My grand caravan no longer responds to the key being inserted, no dash light up, no reaction at all..tested battery it is 100% changed last year, mirrors can move and when I press brake the Kms on the dash board turn on. So there is power but zero reaction to the key being inserted, no ding, or response to buttons on the key. Already had issues with gas pump relay on the TIPM and was expecting new problems but am wondering if this related to the TIPM or could it be an ignition/key issue, it is also has hard to insert the key into the ignition.
Great video as well very appreciated!
What ended up being the problem? I’m having that issue now.
Video is awesome informative ! Only thing I don't understand is the "reset" procedure ?? Positive battery cable comes to battery ONLY from 2 places - Starter and Alternator ......on Both the "positive" end is insulated/separated from ground (negative) physically . How is touching their positive end to the rest of vehicle chassis (negative) ground .....would do anything ? without a battery - the whole car is "ground" (negative) or more accurate "neutral" .... positive cable of starter/alternator only goes to the internal windings of the electrical "motor" (which both of them are basically).....they don't touch the ground / negative in any way .....otherwise they wouldn't work or blow when connected to battery or spun by engine !!!?!!!?!?
How do fix if I broke a bracket ?
Just came across your video as I was trying to look up the cause of my 2015 dodge grand caravan electrical issues, could you possibly give an ear to a frustrated person, first my gauges and instrument panel turned on and off at random, headlights are on, wiper is on but switches don't work, cant turn it off, non of my switches would work, my rear defrost light would flash every time you open and close the doors or put the key in the ignition, and a/c won't turn on till it stops blinking, then the light stopped flashing one day and my radio light started to turn on every time you opened and closed the doors and put the key in the ignition, but my a/c was able to turn on, no problem, blinkers don't work, but I do have parking light, that's always on too and my brake light works, no interior lights, no door or key buzzer, and this was going on for three months until 3 weeks ago, it went off and never came back on, and it starts and drive just fine.
I did some research before I came across your video, and suspect the problem is my tipm, what do you think?, any input would be of great value, thank you so much.
Wow, that is a lot of electrical problems!!! Yes, absolutely the TIPM could but a culprit in many of the issues you mentioned, and I would certainly be looking at that as a priority. It may be worth getting the part number off of your TIPM and buying a used one on eBay (or similar) with the same part number, plug it in and try. It may solve youe issues entirely, it may solve them partially, and there is also the far more unlikley chance that it won't help at all. But for the price of a used TIPM I would likley try that first. Best of luck!

Replaced the tipm and front blower still not working. Any suggestions?
Try testing the relay for the front blower in the top of the tipm (or just swap temporarily with another identical relay next to it just to test). Then test your blower motor. And blower motor resistor. And then after that it would be worth looking atthe heater control panel. Unfortunately it's a process of elimination so you have to keep testing each part one by one until you track it down. We had the front blower not working on a car here, tested EVERYTHING. Turned out to be the TIPM in that case, replacement TIPM and job done. But, of course, that's just one of the possible things it could be. Best of luck!

What are symptoms my Grand Caravan might exhibit that would indicate it needs a new TIPM?
Well unfortunately it can be the cause of many, many issues. Things like transmission problems, fuel pump, engine starting, engine stalling, electrical bugs such as windows, ac blower fan. All kinds of weird and wonderful things. You would usually run tests on the issue first to try and rule out the issue being outside of the TIPM - a process of elimination. B these TIPM's do go wrong pretty often, it's a common problem (especially as this unit controls so much within the car and so can be the cause of so many different potential problems!!) Hope that helps!

great job have 2011 caravan with PO480 code low fan ground fans work ok they say it the tipm hope this helps want $600 for new one plush labor cant afford that \
Had it diagnosed at the shop and they wanted 3000- I found one on eBay for 150 and put it in using the video- dosent work.😢 I’m not getting any power at all to the vehicle. Battery is good. Voltage is going to tipm- I’m going to check all the fuses- any other ideas? Did I buy a bad tipm?
Yes, it sounds like the TIPM they supplier could be dead. Does the part number match 100% with your old one?

@@YouWrench just went back and double checked my connections- one was a little loose- I re connected that plug and made sure I heard the clicks and the car has power! Sometimes the simplest thing is the answer- took too long to figure out though
mine is 2015 dodge caravan got tipm from 2016.i installed used tipm now asking for radio code.
Have a look on eBay, you should find companites that can supply the code cheaply (around $10) if you don't have it. Hope that helps!

So if the tipm isn’t one of the listed matches online can another tipm still work with a hard reset possibly ?
I would not risk it personally. You'll be better off hunting a little harder/waiting longer to find the exact match/newer version confirmed as compatible. Some sellers on eBay just sell TIPM's on the understanding you can take any part number and put it into any car that uses the same type of TIPM. This DOES NOT work. We've tried this, and had two different numbered TIPM's where the indicators would not work at all on a Grand Caravan despite the reset etc. Tracked down the same part number, worked 100%. They make different part number for a good reason, they are different. Stick to matching the exact/definitely compatible part number, you won't regret it!! Hope that helps :-)

@@YouWrench I picked up a used tipm from a same year caravan but have not tried it or checked the part numbers yet. The problem with mine is that fuel pump relay that is soldered in the tipm. I thought it would be easier to put in a new tipm. Otherwise I would have to order one of those aftermarket bypass circuit from Vertical Visions but would take 2-3 weeks. Other option is to take my tipm apart and solder in another relay. Again a new relay may be hard to find and possibly more waiting time without a vehicle.
Is there any harm in trying a tipm without a matching part number ? Any other suggestion for this relay problem ?
@@YouWrench I just checked the part numbers. Surprisingly the actual number part was exactly the same ! The only difference was the last letter (latest version ?). Mine was an ‘F’ this used one was a ‘H’. I’m assuming it should work fine yes ??
@@dillwiggle2 Try a Google search of your original part number. On websites that sell genuine MOPAR products they will often list the TIPM but advise it is no longer available and has been superseded, and give the part number for the direct updated replacement. Hopefully you'll find your H is fully backward compatible with your F. But worth a 5 minute Google search as it's not always the case!! Hope that helps.
@@YouWrench I checked one website selling them and they seemed to be all compatible as long as the main part number was the same. So anyways I just put the donor tipm in and it actually works !!! Your video was excellent information on this topic btw ! Had one more question one of my key fobs for 2011 grand caravan does not work and I have replaced the battery and a new outer plastic shell and still won’t work. It’s the basic fob with just the lock/unlock/panic buttons. Can you please let me know how to program this fob as I only have one key fob working right now !
Do you need a dealership to program this?
No, you should not need a dealer to program this, provided you have bought the exact same part number as the replacement. The TIPM will take the information (including VIN) from the car during the reset process (as shown in this video). Hope that helps 👍

I replaced my tipm the other day on a caravan and just noticed today the rear defog button light is blinking ? It’s never done this before, is this just coincidence lol
It seemed to go away after i started driving but when I parked the van again and went outside after I noticed it blinking once again ???
Did the new TIPM part number match 100% to the old one? Or is the new part number one that definitely supercedes the old one? If you take any old same type TIPM and change it over you can get strange issues happening. It could be that! They do have different part numbers for a reason :-) Otherwise it could be one of the actuators has gone faulty. It seems strange it would coincide with the TIPM changeover, so I'd be thinking TIPM most likley. But otherwise an actuator. Best of luck with it!

@@YouWrench the main part number was exactly the same the version of mine was an ‘F’ that one I put in was ‘H’ I believe so it was slightly newer version. I looked this morning in the window and there was no blinking so not sure if it stops after a certain point or not. And I have not actually tried the rear defrost into see if it works yet but the heater works fine. What do you mean by actuator ?
@@YouWrench so when I went to start vehicle for first time today it started to blink again and the heater never worked then a couple mins later it stopped and the heater starts to work. That’s basically what it seems to be doing now. But the heater will work fine until the vehicle shits off then it will blink again, it will either shut off at some point then start again when the vehicle is started then shut off again and the heater will work .
@@dillwiggle2 I'd recommend changing the TIPM back to the old one and see if the issue immediately disappears. If so, you have your culprit. Hope that helps!
@@YouWrench good suggestion but I’ll sacrifice a blinking light for the vehicle actually be able to start and drive lol
Can TIPM stop the alternator from charging? Replaced alternator and new battery but alternator still isn't keeping the van running
Figure it out yet?
Did you figure it out?
PCM controls the alternator charging
I broke the green clip that snaps on . Will it be fine until I can replace it ?
Just the clip part broke.
My turn signal is acting crazy. They arent blinking outside and my blinker is going really fast inside.
Yes, it should operate ok without the green clip. But not ideal as it could work it's way loose (unlikley, but could happen!) If you are having signal issues, and you 100% certain that the replacement TIPM has a 100% identical part number to your old one?
