See if resetting your ECC (ECM) called the computer will get rid of these problems. You do it by unhooking both battery cables, waiting at least 15 minutes and rehooking the battery. No security thing, only the fact the computer needs new settings for the parts you installed.

What will cause the fuel pump not to get power on a 1997 Chrysler Sebring Convertible? No codes are coming up when scanned. the Crank Sensor has been changed & put a new fuel pump on it. Also, is there a way to check the computer without getting a new one? Please help! I have had 5 different people look at it & no one can figure it out! Thank you

SOURCE: 2002 Sebring Convertible Start/Fuel fuse blows intermittently

HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE AND THE STARTER HAS BEEN THE CULPRIT..HAVE NEVER REPLACED A FUEL PUMP ON ONE OF THESE VEHICLES AT ALL

Testimonial: "I replaced the starter. This job is quite substantial. Also found the nut connecting the cable to the starter coil was not tight. I think it is fixed."

SOURCE: 1999 Chrysler Sebring Convertible code P1495. I

Code 1495 = Leak Detection Pump Solenoid Circuit

Remove the connector from the solenoid (should be on the back wall, just to the drivers side of the air-hat). You will have the solenoid to check and the harness. What you want to measure is the voltage coming from the harness and the resistance of the solenoid.

Turn the key to the "ON" position but do not start the motor; the voltage at the connector should be at least 10V or more,.now, check the resistance of the solenoid (should be around 35 ohms).

Hope helps.

I have replaced the fuel pump, spark plugs and

I bought cheap $100 fuel pump instead of 200 and have trouble with gauge cutting in and out all the time. Also can't go below 1/4 tank or it will lose prime because check valve doesn't work. Check wires are on good and the numbering. Did similar work to mine. Mine was cutting in and out while driving. Loss power and then gained power back and rpm tach would go nuts. It was the crank sensor.

1997 Chrysler Sebring starts everytime but shuts off after five seconds everytime. Getting fuel and spark. What could be causing the shutdown?

It sounds like you computer system has gone into "Theft Protect Mode". There is most likely a problem with your security system and the computer "thinks" that the vehicle is being stolen. This can be due to the wrong key being used, or it could be a bad ignition switch or theft module. I would recommend having it diagnosed professionally. It would be very difficult to diagnose the problem without the required computer diagnostic equipment. If any of the parts of the security system are defective, the computer will have to be reprogrammed when they are replaced.

I would, however try a different key in the ignition if you have more than one - before having it towed to a repair facility. If another key works, you will only need to get a replacement key and have it programmed for your car.

Engine cuts out sometime when you come to a stop

When was last tune up? Plugs, wires, all fluids & filters - especially fuel filter??? I'd start there and run a good fuel system cleaner through it and avoid cheap fuel.

MY 1997 SEBRING STALLS WHILD DRIVING AND WHEN I COME TO AN IDLE

My daughter had this same exact issue on her 97 sebring as well. We checked EVERYTHING else before replacing cars computer (ECM) and wazoo it was fixed. We had replaced spark plug wires, plugs, O2 sensor, egr valve...etc and it was the computer after all that. So pull yours out and take it to car quest or autozone etc and see if they can test it. I would bet thats your problem. GOOD LUCK!! Let me know how it goes.
