Default Electrical Issue/Battery Reset

I am going to admit I know NOTHING about cars so this may sound a bit kindergarten. Twice now I have gotten into my car (2004 Durango SLT), during mild rain (I live in Oregon), once within 5 minutes of driving it just fine and yesterday after about 9 hours of driving it just fine and all of the electrical was acting crazy: wipers going even when off, lights on constantly cant turn them off, no turn signal, gear indicator doesn't change when going from park to drive and so on, key fob won't work, all of the indicator lights are lit up... I do have brake lights and reverse lights. Of course I try restarting and that does nothing but to finally stop the wipers, usually in the up position (also very annoying). The only way to fix it is to unhook the positive thing on the battery for a min or so, re-connect it and everything resets and works fine.

Anyone know what might be the issue?

the first issue is that you failed at the basic task of reading the rules before making a post in an area where it doesnt belong. (link to the rules below, they are even posted in a thread titled "please read this before posting in this section" and tells you everything you need to make a corretly placed post which will get you the assistance you need)

the second is, your CTM is on its way out, i would be looking to replace it.

Rules are rules I know but dang MOD...that was just rude and a good way to deter noobembers signing up.

Besides the CRT it could be the leakage of water under the hood 2004 are notorious for that.
I find the link and post it in here regarding the fix for that leak.
