When replacing the oil pan is there any special way the bolts go back in like in an order or can i just put them in however?
Any large cover or item that is attached to anything that heats/cools and moves (AKA an engine) should allways be put back on with a "star" pattern of tightening , as this will "walk" the cover back down evenly and not allow any bunching up , also some items have specific length bolts , these bolts should be noted in disassembly and returned to that location , water pumps are especially critical of this type of pattern as bolts on them even provide sealing sometimes
if a mfg has a specific pattern that item needs to be replaced with they will specify it with a note of somekind example given (refer to dwg 2-21 for torque sequence)

It should show the diagram on the radiator top panel...or up on the hood. If not, go to the library and look it up in a manual.

SOURCE: 2006 Town & Country ABS light stays on
when the abs light comes on your car is letting you know that it has shut down the abs system because of a problem. so you are braking with regular conventional brakes which is perfectly safe. any time a component of the antilock brake system malfuntions the abs system is shut off and the light will come on to let you know. the most common problem is that the wheel speed sensors go bad. a trouble code will be stored in the abs control module you can have the abs module scanned to see what the problem may be. But dont worry you car is safe to drive. you just dont have the antilock brake option.
SOURCE: How do you change a passenger mirror on a 2006
If you're lucky, on the inside of the door, will be a triangular panel
right behind the mirror that you can pop off. If you're not as lucky
and it's one piece or the panel is blocked by the door panel, you'll
need to remove the door panel to change it.
On the inside trim,
you can remove screws (these screws may be covered by filler pieces or
may be visible, or they may require you pry a plastic piece off that
covers the screws) that are by the door handle,
arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the
panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want
to break them. You'll need to lift the door panel upwards in order to
get it off the window ledge. Then you'll need to manipulate the panel
and disconnect the door handle linkage from the door handle and
disconnect the wiring for your controls. Then you can remove the bolts
holding the mirror onto the door
