No Power Whatsoever
#5
Didn't know that. Is there any other component that, if it fails, will kill all power to the vehicle? Like a relay or something? I've pulled the battery, brought it in, and will let it warm up overnight, then put a new battery in tomorrow. But if nothing was left on last night, the battery should not be dead.
I checked the battery connections, tried the lights and radio, nothing. The alternator is good. There was no indication of the alternator dieing. On the other hand, who knows? We'll test everything tomorrow.
Nice to see the "sticky' on the tailgate. We had it fail once on the '04, and twice on the '07. The dealer response was laughable. Other than that, this is a good van.

It was the battery!!
Took the battery in to the store that sold it to me - Canadian Tire - they tested it, found it totally dead, and gave me a new one. The battery was 11 months old. It registered 7.4 volts or amps? and didn't hold a charge.
In my 50 years of driving I have never had a relatively new battery die. Goes to show you that they just can't make them cheap enough.
Put in the new one, and everything worked.
I still can't believe it.
