Regarding the power locks, does anyone know how to open the rear tailgate if the power locks don't unlock it or the key. I hear the motor/regulator kick in but it doesn't unlock? All other locks are working fine.

Our power locks quit working yesterday, and thanks to the advice we found here, they are working again. Thank you so much! The more problems reported, perhaps Dodge will issue a recall on this concern.

Do you have the owners manual, it should give location(pdc or interior fuse box) and location #, it might also be a circuit breaker?(If it has one for the locks) hope that helps?

Left front of engine compartment, inside the integrated power module (#2), check fuse 19 (40A) and fuse 14 (20A).

Door locks have quit operating on all doors. They do not work by the remote or interior switches. All other electronics seem to work fine. Is there a fuse or breaker, besides the fuse bos?

Hi gregsever,

Thank you for the donation.

The main power supply for the power door lock control is via the #19 (40A) fuse in integrated power module located at left front of engine compartment.

The power lock system receives non-switched battery current through a fuse in the Integrated Power Module (IPM), so that the power locks remain operational, regardless of the ignition switch position.

Hi gregsever,

The next thing to do would be to test the IPM since fuses are ok.

I would need to gather and process the data before I can explain how to do it.

I have a 2005 Grand Caravan sxt. My lock system doesn't work. I've got automatic lock system with a key fob. When I hit the key fob button, locks do not open or lock, yet horn beeps and auto sliding doors do work via fob. Also the manual button to lock or unlock all doors doesn't work. The only way to work the locks is to use each one manually, or to open the driver door with the key. Any thoughts? Thanks.

I have the same problem and removing the 20 amp fuze and replacing it apparently resets the computer and the locks work for a while anywhere from 2 days to 6 months then the problem reoccurs. Any thoughts other than replacing the computer.

My electric windows do not work, my automatic door locks do not work. I took it to Kwik Kar, they stated it was an electrical problem. What do I do now?

It is an electrical problem. However, where do we start.

Have you checked fuses to see if they are good? If so and they are good, you need to remove the driver's door panel and check to see if there is power to the switches. My first guess is there is a broken wire between the door and the door frame.

Check the things I mentioned and let me know what you find.

I have an 05 that the locks don't work either, if I take the fuse out and put it back in they work for a short while then stop working. I have seen many others with this problem on the 05 caravans, seems to be a common issue with that model year!
