#Chrysler200 - Авто та транспорт
Never had this issue before transmissions became computer controlled.
lol, IKR
I have this exact car 194k mile no issues never been to the garage just oil change for the pass 7 years
Thats amazing. You got lucky. The 2.4 engin has issues from the factory, they burn more oil than they should, and most low oil sensors dont work. The air valves are run off solonoids that need oil. If your engine runs low it shuts down
I have the 2.4L & it doesn’t burn oil. It has 118,000 miles on it
@@KristaJewell it does. All modern engines do. Manufacturers made piston rings smaller to reduce friction. The 2.4 more oil get through than the standard 1q between oil changes. The second is that there's an odd quirk for that engine where on deceleration a small amount of oil is sucked from the valve cover into the air intake. Chrysler has a software update that "fixes" that problem.
I have this car but 200s Engine is horrible
I just bought one of these last week, 2015 chrysler 200 and it only had 35k miles on it. It's still practically brand new inside and out.
He is absolutely right. I had the same problem with my Chrysler 200. It cost me 500 hundred dollars. It’s called a proxy alignment
Brother please communicate back to me, usually commenters are bots but did it really cost $500? And did u take it to a dealership? Im having the same exact issue with mine pls respond
@@esaitellez6323you can do it yourself with a laptop, dongle, and alfaOBD
Believe or not, every car going to have its problems, some cars are better then others and the newer the cars gets, the more technology, the more difficult things gets with vehicles. I believe that sometimes, you can buy a car new or use and not have any problems but someone else can buy that same year making model and somehow have the worse experience, that’s the whole point of recalls, use of bad faulty parts or it’s been put together to quickly with out making sure that the car is functioning the way it should. Long story short, if you like a car, test drive it, do your research or even rent it for a week or so just to get your own personal experience over someone else’s, if it’s a bad car in your eyes, you know what to do. If you enjoy this car, go for it. If you like, I love it.
I drive an old truck. For me almost everything is dyi. Unless it involves a spring compressor.
Do Yourself It
Lol my dad installed a home light switch in his old truck for his headlights😭
My car did that and it was a diy job. The odometer was blinking which meant it needed a proxy alignment. I did it in my driveway with my mother. A Bluetooth obd reader, a smart phone and an app
Hey where did you get the reader from ?
I really like the style of these models but after seeing this, I'm not so sure. Too much computer! I have enough problems with Microsoft at work!
All that means is take that thing to a Toyota Dealership and trade that POS in.
So let me get this straight. The customer likely added a speaker sys to they car and had to tie into the battery and didnt get the connection secured properly, now this confuse the computers and bamm, proxi alignment off. lol, are you suggesting the car is junk at this point and should be traded in? Computers dont come out of sync on they own buddy. Most electrical problems are self induced. Your hate for the FCA or Chrysler brand showing. Its ok to love Toyota, im sure if this same cust took your advice and trade it in for a Toyota and he do the same thing, the results will likely be the same. Let that marinate for a minute.
@@OnlineMechanicTips that's exactly what I'm saying,I am transparent with my extreme lack of love for Chrysler, there is not a worse vehicle manufacturer that exist in this modern world.
@@dustinpomeroy8817 But the last quarter showed impressive sell numbers, so it seems you out numbered buddy.
@@OnlineMechanicTips and 81 million voted for Joe Biden and a ton of people eat and think McDonald's is good food,the majority of people in this country are horrible decision makers and don't research anything,even a 50,000 vehicle.Sales numbers don't prove anything but what is popular at the moment.The real number to look at is the cost of ownership. There will always be people who buy the cheapest they can get.
@@OnlineMechanicTips sales doesn't mean quality, people buy stuff because they feel like they can afford it. Pretty much everyone I've known who have bought Chrysler products have regretted their decisions, even the dealerships required multiple visits. I also drove a brand new dodge work van for directv a few years ago. Battery lasted 3 months but it took 3 dealerships to admit it was defective no matter how much I told them that it was. My 5th time to them and they just replaced it under warranty and voila. But eventually other problems unrelated came up a few months later
and this is the future of DIY :) Just like Elon does to Teslas :) SEMA is constantly suing to get access to these so DIY and outside shops can do repairs. :) They either lock the non dealer out or make the tools cost prohibitive to purchase... been happening more and more
Love your videos brother thank you.
Thanks for watching Willy
Sounds like you need to
Close the door in order for the light to stop
Flashing..the Chrysler will not move unless the door is shut(the driver door) safety reasons..my 2018 does that..has nothing to do with the transmission..shut the door and the light will stop flashing
Exactly, I was just telling somebody that. It’s a security feature that other cars doesn’t have.
If you listened, he shut the door.
@@kelvinkeme9397 why don’t you listen more and you’ll here the door sign going,I have the same vehicle,I know what I’m talking about..
@Freshcold1 My guy this has nothing to do with the door being open, in fact the doors was closed. Yes the feature you speaking about exist but not on this 2015 Chrysler 200. This transmission was bricked, meaning it was not connected to the other modules via proxy alignment. A simple re alignment with my good scan tool and walla. Of course we had to address why it happen in the first place.
@@kelvinkeme9397Yes, the doors was closed. This transmission was bricked and had to be aligned via proxy
This is why I will keep my 2001 vehicle.
You’re right brother appreciate the wisdom
Thanks for watching
That can sometimes happen when you try to put it in gear without pressing the brake pedal
No, proxi alignment not affected by doing this.
So I had the same problem. Changed the shifter knob, fixed it instantly
What problems it gave you
@@lemuelnubio566 it was saying shift to park and wouldn't start at all. Changes the shifter knob and started up right away
I appreciate that we’ll I’m having problems the first it couldn’t shift it said put in park but the knob wasn’t accelerating so I unplug the battery then it work so I had the dealership relearned it and I was going to drive it said put in park..how much did it cost for you to change the knob
@@lemuelnubio566 well I order one of eBay from dealership it's six hundred and seventy five dollars. eBay paid six five for the whole panel changed it out and started up fine no problems since.
Got my wife a 2017 chysler 200 it has 100k miles now. I've done plugs an all matience on this car. Took really good care of it. I want to drain trans fluid. But this car doesn't have a dip stick or drain. Seen a few videos on it. Have to make your own dip stick. An can only drain 3 quarts at time. Any suggestions. Maybe run the car an drain it through the trans cooler if it has one? What's your thoughts. Love the car never had a problem. But I want to change the fluid.
Have the same problem as I was driving
Anything is diy if you have the right tools
Absolutely
Does the Chrysler 200 need to be serviced, repaired, or fixed?
Alfaobd and a bluetooth obd2 reader (not just a code reader). It can be diy IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOURE DOING!
Wow, a chrysler with a transmission failure!?! Never heard of it before. 🙄🤣🤣
I had this same issue and I fixed it my self...... facts
How you fixed the problem?
What even was the problem?
How
MAF sensors maybe
Manually pull the lever which is located under that tiny box down the middle under open square take out box and lift the lever yourself and under the hood press the the drive park neutral yourself u can put it in gear that way manually and it won't blink anymore
No my friend, thats not the case. Doing that will not magically sync proxi alignment back up. I think we talking about 2 different issues.
I have these issues but more……my odometer don’t read mileage at times. I have two failed recalls an they won’t fix! Car goes into neutral on its own or it goes into reverse n just blinks.
WhT ur simply doing is revering the PRNDL without holding yo foot on the break first it’s gonna do that just tested it they flash also but they won’t even u put yo foot on it Friday before turning
No my friend. This car transmission was bricked...you simply wrong
@@OnlineMechanicTips Soo the service shifter is broken ?
No..nothing wrong with the shifter
If you bought a Chrysler you did it to yourself.
Did what? This car is bricked because of something the customer did. Thats not the car makers fault. And I'm sure Chrysler car owners not interested in symphony from the likes of you.
😂
Same year make and model was it actually the trans ? Or computer or sensor or fuse problem?
Gotta getta a scan tool
Mine is blinking in neutral when I try to put in park
I wanted a car like this but did u figure it out ? Yall have me worried ❤
Or it can be the door is open. When my chrysler 300. Does that when ever my door is open it won’t move nd blink
Chrysler dealership also said when he was trying to trade it in that it didn’t want to shift out of second gear
I'm in jamaica working on one having trouble need help plz
Throttle Body may need to be replaced give or take less than $500 DIY
Now how would a trottle body cause this problem?
Chrysler 200 means 200 trips to dealership before it dies on you
You can just always simply not buy one. Lol, that likely will solve that issue you have with Chrysler. The video for those that already own one.
@@OnlineMechanicTips I own a Jeep Cherokee I know how much it’s in the shop. You are a great mechanic though
Change the cabin air filter
I brought mines to the deal shop they told me any to much transmission fluid the day after the car started bck doing this so I wasted my money now it’s back in the shop they don’t know why it’s doing that
Mine was stuck in park/neutral had to go back to dealer to reprogram the computer 350.00 got robbed but no choice
How was you robbed? Some shops charge 2 hours labor for this. And btw, this don't just happen just because. So somewhere down the line, you bricked your system
What's up brother, I'm from Mexico and I have this fault in my car, how can I get you to tell me how to fix this fault?
Pudiste solucionarlo tengo la misma falla 😢
Not true alfaOBD does proxi alignments
Whats not true?
Or maybe just re engage the transmission with that little tab you have exposed underneath the shift knob😅
That does nothing dude. But you welcome to try it
Is Chrysler 200 C a reliable vehicle?
Its funny everyone trying to back chrylser up as a reliable brand. Its NOT an opinion that they build pos subpar vehicles. It's simply a fact
Where is the link
Differment?
This is the reason I was able to get this car so cheap Person was told by a transmission shop that he needed a whole new transmission and blah blah all this BS he had the car towed from Cleveland to Michigan and put it up for sale I come through to buy the car someone else had supposedly bought it so 3 days later he contacts me again to purchase the vehicle I get out there to look at it I give him a $1000 And was determined to drive this car home 3 days later I came back got my equipment off of eBay and Amazon ordered the dongle to plug into the car download the software on a app and did a proxy alignment myself and wala gotta 14 $15000 car for a $1000.... This car had 76000 miles on it I now have a 110000 miles on a year later..... Purchase my 14 750 BMW lI xdrive the same way.....$123000 car
"wala" hahahah nice adaptation
(traditionally it's voila LOL)
What piece did you buy because I have one. I’m looking to fix it!
All that means is that you have carburetor icing
explain
@@OnlineMechanicTips Sure. You pop the hood and you look for big silver circle in the middle of the engine. Unscrew the butterfly nut, now you have access to your carburetor
Yup cuz cars with fuel injection now come with 42 carbs 🙄
Do you have a video on how to change the transmission fluid in this car?
It’s supposedly lifetime fluid, but I heard that’s BS.
ua-cam.com/video/POUy4_EFS24/v-deo.html
@@OnlineMechanicTips Yeah I think I found it already lol. I’m going to do the spark plugs and oil change soon, but I know I should do the transmission service shortly after that. The car has 102,000 miles on it.
@@OnlineMechanicTips This isn’t a full length video on how to change the fluid.
Magic word is “software” can’t code your vehicle if you don’t have the software
Who makes the best 3/4 ton turbo diesel pickup in todays time in your opinion?
Ford plain and simple haha
Press up on the parking break right next to it 😂😭
What will that do?
That doesn’t work I had this same problem with my 2015 Chrysler 200 only way it can be fixed if the computer is relearned
Can you say Toyota do they still make The 200.🤔
Transmission control module
What about it?
Are you doing a relearn on the module when the shift light is blinking in drive.
@@OnlineMechanicTips are you guys flat rate at your shop?
@@richardfoster9499 yes, flat rate.
@@richardfoster9499 This car TCM was out of Proximity Alignment..That has to be addressed first
There is a Chrysler 200 with 120 miles near me but I’m worried of buying it because of stuff like this, people say it won’t be reliable
I bought one with 30000 miles in 2019, it's been a fantastic car for me. I've had no problems with it at all
My boyfriend has the 2016 200 literally is doing just this I keep trying to tell him I think it something with the transmission and etc but he doesn’t listen to me. When we shift it into drive its like it shuts off or loses engine power and it tell us to shift it in park I think then we turn it off and try to turn it back on a shift it back into drive. Doesn’t want to accelerate or go past 4 without straining then when we turn it on sometimes it revs all the way up on its own. Granted he is very irresponsible and hasn’t been regularly maintaining his car so now it’s like everything messing up 🙄🙄🤦🏾♀️
His transmission definitely going bad. It’s just a matter of time before it’s all gone !!
Where’s the video
Can you show or tell me how to change a fuse for the lighter in. My Chrysler 200 2016?!? Please!!
Sure I can, do you have the 4 cylinder or V6? Also are you subscribed to the channel?
@@OnlineMechanicTips thank you so much!!! 4 cylinder.
@@briand3420 Uhmmm, I asked you 2 questions ms lady
@@OnlineMechanicTips I got you!! No problem.
Oh it's a Chrysler say no more fam
I DIY, and sell it
One of the many reasons I drive old vehicles. If a gear is there and I want it, I get it… not this turn dial shifter crap.
lol, The rotary shifter not that bad.
Word of advice 😂 I learned the hard way lol my tranny was slipping I tried to drive home i hopped on the freeway and when I made it to a ramp it slipped and I didn’t press the gas my transmission went into park mode so basically it ended dying and using the parking shift to stop my speed safely but my brakes were working so it wasn’t needed my car basically committed suicide 😭
What if it’s stuck in drive ?
What kind of car? Also are you subscribed to the channel?
Not necessarily tru....i own this car and had this issue.....fixed it myself with a mxpluss and app I downloaded to do a proxy alignment....I made a video of it.
Can you mention me in that video champ? I’m tryna fix this problem with my car now
@@jayrodriguez1290 What do you mean by can I mention you

@@newtonraymond77 hahaha ur like so funny11! that ram pro master with a 626K pentastar would like to have a word with you.
@@TheSavage3.6 yeah man pentastar is a little high maintenance but really a work built engine
@@OnlineMechanicTips❤
Happened to me
On god bro… I rather just pay to have it fixed just don’t tax us all the time 😂
u can do it diy u just have to pay tech authority for the access to redo the proxy and u need a laptop or a nice scan tool lol
Well at that point you will be considered a tech. Lol
@@OnlineMechanicTipsna i made a video helped people fix this for 100 bucks
Stay far far away from Chrysler products. Great videos showing why
Most all newer cars converting to the rotary shifter and they all from time to time will have a problem. This problem was induced by somebody messing with the battery and poor connections. Has nothing to do with Chrysler..smdh at this comment
If that’s the case stay away from dodge and jeep tf
They messed up buying a Chrysler in the first place....
Why you say that though ???
No car it is.
That’s a really stew
Pit shifter smh 🤦♂️
Its the transmission
No its not
@OnlineMechanicTips it is, I've had the same issue ND it was the transmission. Either went out or you need to change transmission fluid.
Smh, no man, neither one of those will help this problem. You have to understand what's going on before throwing parts at it. On this problem on this car its different
@OnlineMechanicTips it will, take it to a transmission shop ND you will see. If you want it to keep driving unplug batter ND plug battery back ND it will restart again. It blinks ND don't let you drive to protect the car
@@pepitomtz Smh, a transmission shop wouldn't have a clue what to do with this problem. They will waste ya money and simply advise you to take it to a dealer. Thats simply because its not a transmission problem guy.
Brooo you need to change the oil
What will that do?
@@OnlineMechanicTips im having the same problem in my chrysler 200 2016 from the last three days. It shows my oil is 25%. I saw another video, in that he was explaining that oil shortage leads to this issue. Tomorrow im gonna go to mechanic and get the oil changed and hopefully it will be good again. I will keep you updated.
Yes bro its over 4 days now since the engine oil has been changed. So far its working like normal. No issues. No stoppings in between.
Anyone with a brain won't buy a Chrysler 200 in the first place I'd just part it out and be done with it
But this is a easy fix..lol
Why dude, don’t say that :( you make me feel bad, just got myself a 2012 200. The first got me is the battery location and the headlights, taillights now your comment thinking I made a mistake :(.
@@OnlineMechanicTipsmines doing the same so what’s the real issue?
@Tone5404 Did it set any codes? Also are you subscribed to the channel?
How did you fix it
The first problem is buying a Chrysler 200.
:(
That was brilliant. Now whats the second?
Newer is not always better with all this electronic junk.
You say your going to put a video in the comments section… never a video… maybe pin the comment? Love your videos and learn a lot .. but please give us the video!!! ❤
Samuel Jackson!
Good video.. I finally broke down and took 2005 chrysler 300c to the dealership, I commented on your video about the lighting bolt and the throttle body. Replace the throttle body and relearned it myself. Still had the same problem, dealership show throttle body codes amd door control codes. Just like the one you was working on. I'm wondering if that door harness is the problem with the throttle body. Anyway just leaving a comment..
O wow, I hope they get it diagnosed correctly for you bud.
First of all you swit high gears way too rough its a car not a computer.
Smdh, dude how do you roughly switch gears using a rotarty shifter? Lol. In other words, you cant.
I just recently replace mine but my old one went to 240k miles all diy maintenance. your comment is bullshit
What on earth are you even talking about?
Electrical issues again
What does that mean? lol, You the type that would blame a car makers product that you hate even on self induced problems by customers..You the type that would blame a sludged up motor on Chrysler, even tho the customer never changes the oil..lol..But i love your consistency..lol
Certainly no more than any other manufacturer, and much less than most.
@@kelsycunningham8452 Man they all have problems. Its just that some are exposed more than others. These vids are more so of the fca brand so if you watch it, your mind will lead you to believe "electrical issues again" even tho its a different car, different day or even a different complaint.lol
@@OnlineMechanicTips your mostly right every Chrysler I’ve ever touched they literally fell to crap I’ve been around those things long before there whining starters they used to have back in the 60s and 70s and I ain’t as young as you by far I’m just ragging on them but they do have electrical issues and you can’t help customer neglect it’s what makes you money im just picking fun

Another reason to stay away from Stellantis products
Whats the reason?
@@OnlineMechanicTips too many electronic/computer problems
@@practicalsigma No difference than any other cars. You just watch this channel and only see this.. Besides, this problem was customer induced. She caused this.

Duhhh what?
I had that problem after removing the computer
got the 2011 Chrysler 200. 242,000 miles, just ball joints and oil changes. She does burn some oil though
Go back to work. Lol
I hate the 200, even the pentastar powered ones. Every T,D, and H think it's a race car. It's got the same hemi engine....nope that's the 300 and they are junk too.
User induced.
explain
@@OnlineMechanicTips it's a joke. I know that's not user induced, it's Chrysler 😆 and I'm just waiting for the day it happens to me
@@Mike__P I can tell you how to speed up the process of it happening to you. Just tamper with your battery and leave the connection loose. It very well may happen to you. Thank me later
@@OnlineMechanicTips I've already had the battery completely die in my 200, to the point where trying to start it you can watch the dash lights come on and just fade to black. Thankfully nothing got messed up and the new battery got me back on the road.

Worst car anybody could ever buy smh
Wrong. Your comment opinionated at best.
@@OnlineMechanicTips Tell that to the ever declining purchase rate of the car brand, the discontinuing of the car model, and the large number of complaints about electrical issues...how are you gonna tell various ppl about their own experience of THEIR vehicle when its been readily reviewed in the same light by other purchasers?
