My Chrysler 300 keeps reading code 2174 - 2006 Chrysler 300

CODES $7e8 & $7e9 ? P0xxx example. What clicks ? starter solenoid ? Relay ? etc.... Do a starter system voltage drop test ,go to youtube an check out no crank - no start videos . Also check out voltage drop testing starting system .

Have the codes read. Could be the solenoid pack. Inside the transmission on top of the valve body. I've replace a few of these.

You need to see what diagnostic trouble codes are stored in the engine computer ! If engine light is on there are trouble codes stored . On Chryslers you can do this on the instrument cluster ! How to read DTCs in MOPAR cars Dodge Challenger Magnum Chrysler 300C Jeep...

You'll need someone to check the body computer for trouble codes to know what to do next. You may find an auto parts store with the right code reader to access the body computer, but most readers only access the engine computer.
Once you have the codes a mechanic can check those codes to find the problem.

un hook your battery to reset the computer , if it persits you may have to change the esp sensor keep in mind once you disconnect the battery it will clear your error codes and it can not be read later.

Hi there:
There are several possible causes, such as a bad wheel speed sensor to a controller locking up. Try asking your dealer about many TSB or Repair Bulletins out for a computer software flashes.



Keep in mind that you will need visit to Chrysler and they can read the DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) stored in the computer and tell exactly where is the problem.


Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

Take your car to the nearest auto parts store and ask them to read and erase your trouble codes. As soon as you throw another code get them to read it again to verify which code is alerting you. Remember that just replacing a part is not always a solution. A egr is not too expensive and easily changed by someone handy. Buy a haynes repair manual for around $25. It's a good investment and will walk you through most repairs. It will also give you a basic understanding of what could be wrong with your car so that you will npt be taken advantage of by an unscrupulous mechanic .

It may be one of several things eg. evap system leak or egr valve or purge solenoid or something else. You will need to read the codes.

Either your battery is shot and no longer will take a charger and your PCM is noticing low voltage or your alternator is not longer charging well enough to provide adequate voltage to your PCM. THese are 2 signs of the battery light

check battery and fuses
