Description of the problem | My car wouldn't start and after checking the fuses and relays i found a relay that reset the dashboard alarm i bought a new relay and replaced it. Sometime later my car lost all power . Took my battery out and inspected and found that the battery was drained /bad. After buying a new battery my wife reported to me a noise coming from the gas tank area . After inspecting the area in question i took it to get looked at and found out that my fuel pump will not shut off and was the reason why my original battery died. After doing some research i have found the same problems with other dodge durango's and the root cause being the tipm. I don't want to spend the money on a test from the dealer telling me i have a bad tipm when i already know what's wrong. So where do i go from here? I spent good money on this car and i am in fear of my family's safety when driving this car. |
