so much info needed to help your problem, like eng size and when you say new are you meaning rebuilt ,brand new, or salvage yard new, also I would say you need to find a new mechanic that is qualified to dig your problem, has any of the mechanic you talk about been the dodge dealership? yes more expensive but they are better off to fix your problem then the local garages,good luck and please report back on whatever to be your problem so others might benefit,,,,P.S. we have some great mechanics here on the blog they probably will chime in soon so keep checking back for some answers as well

you could use a meter to see if the motor is bad or not,,,,also check the wire connectors to see if the voltage is making it to the motor

call the dealership for the correct plug, they last at least 100k so with all the trouble to do them I would use OEM weather you buy from them or else wear,also one of our guys here also recommends changing out another part while doing this and he rec using OEM on it as well I cant remember the part name,,check out the forum we have here under the engine drivetrain section good luck

lots of info here located in the forum section Pictures and lots of info search it out

they are talking about the oil cooler which wouldn't have anything to do with heat or air inside the cabin,that would be the heater core that might be the restriction on the inside of the cabin on just one side check out YouTube for more info on the shortcut replacement of heater core, or your blend doors as well could be your problem also check out YouTube for info on how they work and replacement P.S. what code are you showing?also engine size and mileage would help........just seen the code on the org post which is due to thermostat this wouldn't give you heat on just one side of your cabin.....

I had a caravan I was driving down the road everything was fine, shut it off and then tried to start it and all the electronics went crazy and it wouldn't start battery was 4 yrs old and alt tested fine just finally died when it did I always start with the easiest and cheapest test before moving on to other more complicated things that might have gone bad

, when i turned the key for starting , nothing happens ,however my battery is in good condition HAVE you actually had the battery load checked to make sure it is in top condition? also have you had the journey scanned with a quality scanners to see if there are any codes?

your first post was in such large print I couldn't read the whole post

could be the fuse in the fuse box under the dash on the passenger side or the button not making the right connection

this has been discussed here quite frequently, 99 % your problem for the lights and wiper are due to breaking wires or shorted wires Thur the upper left rubber grommet located in the lift gate, check the forum or you can also Google on you tube to see this problem

have your journey scanned for codes to see what is happening, also you can re-calibrate your compass the direction are in your book that might help good luck and please report back on what you find out to be your problem

first which engine? 3.6 easy to change, 2.4 a little more complicated as their are 2 thermostats from what I read, also make sure you use the proper coolant as well,,check your manual that came with the journey.might want to try a flush on the heater core while you are in the process.good luck and please report back on what ever that fixes your problem...also show her how to look in the info area under the eng info to see how high the temperature of the engine is getting up to should be around 199 - 205 depending on outside temp and how the vehicle is being driven

you can also scan yourself using the on/off button 3 times for simple codes but that probally wont work for this problem check out you tube for that video on how to do it

You need to have the vehicle scanned with a good scanner usually the ones the part stores has will not scan for the abs codes, with the abs /traction control lights on the cruise control will not work, I don't have AWD but I did have the traction control light and the ABS light and the brake light come on and had it scanned and the code came up 2201-c which ended up being an internal failure of the ABS electrical unit which had to be replaced however mine did NOT put my vehicle into limp mode, Google your problem or strat checking out you tube with your symptoms to see what comes up but as I said you need to have it scanned with a quality scanners that has the capability of the ABS and other service options ,,good luck and report back on what you find to be your problem/solution..and WELCOME to the group😃

thanks for reporting back for others to be able to learn from,keep us informed and good luck
