Default 2010 grand caravan sxt & M13 fuse

Can anyone tell me what fuse m13 controls? I can't decipher the description from the owners manual. This fuse blew out and when I attempted to replace it, the new fuse poped and blew as soon as it hit the socket.

Thanks,

Fuse M13 is the battery feed for the cluster, the steering control module and the analog clock if you had one.

Thanks, Right now the only thing I can find that isn't working is the chime (seat belts, door open...) Can't get in until Tuesday, so we'll find out then what they find.

Default M-13 resolved

Turns out that the dealer nicked a wire (in a wiring harness) when they installed the backup camera. Started out by asking us if the camera was aftermarket. We said yes and they said that apparently the installer nicked a wire. When we reminded them that they installed the camer, they then said, well, must have came from the factory like that since we wouldn't have done that.

Problem resolved, covered under warranty.

Could someone tell me where the fuse is for the AC. Looked with the rest of the fuses and don't even see a label for the air conditioner.

If you are looking for a fuse for the a/c clutch, there isn't one, internal relay in the TIPM feeds the clutch.

Default relay label

How is the AC compressor relay labeled. I see most of the relays are a K and a number

There, I fixed it.


Please don't wake up 4 year old threads to ask an unrelated question. Start a new thread please and include your year model as Chrysler has been making vans for decades....thank you.
