My 06 LT 2.4L was running fine for a day after fixing my no-start with a new starter. It’s giving me trouble again, here’s the symptoms:

Combination: limp mode, power steering light, flickering speedometer, alarm light, traction and ABS light. This has happened before.

When it decides to run fine here’s new issues: intermittent power steering light and the power steering cutting out in “blips.” Intermittent BRAKE light

Heres the codes, too many to type out
Lmk if I’m a lost cause. Any advice helps

 

Take the cover off the underhood fuse block. Push down firmly on all fuses and relays, to seat them properly. Then there are four 7mm bolts securing the top to the bottom halves of the fuse block. Tighten those gorilla tight.

If that doesn't fix it, go to a chain auto parts store for free battery load test and free charging system test.

 

X2 what he said ^^^^

 

The twice weekly problem is the 4 bolts. They need to be a lot more than "tight". Second is the front red wires on the fuse box. Third is a loose battery connection. Fourth any wire that you touched whilst replacing the starter, are they all in the right place and tight?

 

For reference

 

The 4 bolts are tightened until they sound like they wanted to crack. Connections to the fuse box are good. Battery connections are solid and it tested good. Starter wires are where they need to be. Alternator tested good.

Another symptom I’m having is a very unreliable OBD diagnostic connection. It rarely connects and if it does, it randomly drops the connection sometimes. Same thing happens with my Chinese diagnostic tool and my ZR 13s. Last time I got it to connect, it wouldn’t connect to the ECM or BCM. I attached a video of the symptom. I have an OBD two breakout box and a voltage tester if someone can advise on how to test the pins.

 

I found this somewhere on the site, I think donbrew posted:


I’ll try this procedure to see what’s not communicating

 

Keep going.

 

Ok, I tightened with my 3/8s ratchet and all my strength until they all literally stripped. They reached a point where they started to slip inside and I was confident they were stripping. I did this with all 4. Hopefully this is the issue

 

Filing under, “Happy now?”

Ya know, someone needs to just post a torque spec for those.

A buncha codes all at once is always a power problem. Betcha dealing with the starter problem did in the battery.
