FOR 2000 DODGE DURANGO SLT PLUS. WIRE FOR HEADLIGHT DIMMER IN STEERING CONSOLE IS TOO SHORT WHICH LEADS TO THE WIRE PULLING OUT OF THE CONNECTOR IN THE CONSOLE.

ENGINE INTERMITTENTLY SHUTS OFF. SOMETIMES NOT EVERYDAY AND SOMETIMES 10 TIMES. SHUTS OFF AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, IDLING AND IN DRIVE AT A STOP LIGHT, OR GOING 40 MILES PER HOUR. IT SOMETIMES RESTARTS RIGHT AWAY, AND SOMETIMES IT CRANKS AND CRANKS, AND ABOUT THE 15TH TRY IT MAY RESTART. IT CUT OUT 6 TIMES IN THE PARKING LOT OF A MALL. THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF IS THAT I WAS PARKED IN THE SUN ON A HOT DAY AT THE MALL, AND THE ENGINE QUIT AFTER RUNNING FOR ONLY 30 SECONDS. *TR
