I was driving home from work and suddenly the dash lit up like Christmas Tree. Info warning stated stop/start unavailable and fuel cut off unavailable. Stop/Start light on, yellow triangle light on, various airbags lights on, seat belt light on. Car drives normally. HELP

Is it a 2 door 500?

If so there are 2 x likely failures..

1, Hatch wiring at the tailgate hinge
2, Battery to Chassis cable (under the bonnet)

Well I suppose it had to happen sometime. Went to visit some friends for a couple of hours, got back in the car, and turned the key to find the dash lit up like a disco. :mad: Initial assessment is that I've got the orange warning triangle, flashing mileage, airbag & seatbelt 'do not drive'...

What age the car?
As above and possibly the battery
Tailgate wiring my best bet

11 years in service,

Hatch wiring most likely

Did that look like something you can check?

Auto Electrician checked wiring in hatch area. All ok. He then found that there was no communication with airbag module at all. He removed module for me. I’m going to send it off for repair and hopefully this will cure the problems

Makes sense, fuel cut off controlled by the airbag ecu.
