Welcome to DF
Do you know if the van still has any warranty on it? Because the problem seem to a bus failure. There could be many problems with the CAN Bus curcuit.

 

No i'm doubting i can get warranty, it has 47000 miles on it or 75000 km and it originally came from Arizona and was imported to canada and i am now the third owner.

 

Is this an easy fix at a dealership, and what would be an estimated cost? The guy never put AS Is on the bill of sale so I think I will be trying to get my money back.

 

I don't know what the cost would be. Or how long it will take the dealer to find the problem. But if you take it to the dealer, be sure to ask for the shop foreman to repair the van. Thats because the foreman in most case is the oldest tech working on the cars. I'm next to the oldest in the shop where I work at. So I can say that.

 

The interior BUS is not fault tolerant. Meaning that any BUS circuit issue will make just about any damn thing happen to any interior module. That's why the symptoms look so insane. You're seeing BUS signals banging heads. The biggest source of issues i've ran into have been the door wiring harness. Mainly the Driver's side. In the hinge area there will be a couple broken wires inside the flexible rubber. I think the harness is around 130 bucks now. The Journeys have a recall on them now and i'm sure the Vans will not be far behind...it's the same stinkin harness... lol. So, if that's it then save your receipt for when they do recall the vans.

On the 2008 there were also some issues where the seats would be bolted down on top of the wiring harness. Most of them have been addressed because they were the early builds. Haven't seen one in ages.

 

Thanks guys, going to get it in today so we can actually use this unit.
