My son's 2008 Dodge Caravan with 120K miles just gave him the symptoms of no working instruments and all the red/yellow warning lights lit up. It starts fine and he can drive. No battery speedometer and no battery voltage.
Since he's 1,000 miles away from me I'd figure I'd post this here first. Sounds like an IP PCU/PCM failure. Or maybe a fuse - though not sure how that would light up all the warning lights. He did say it's very hot today at 106 deg F. Batteries don't last long in his region. But this battery is nearly new. I told him to check firewall grounds, fuses, varmit chewed wires, anything electrical that's loose. Told him to get a $6 volt-ohm-amp meter. Doesn't sound like battery or alternator issue. But at this age and mileage, things will start to fail.
Any other ideas to pass along?
