Vehicle Detail
Hi, I am selling my 2006 Dodge Sprinter 2500, with only 170k mi. I am the third owner. The original owner drove it all the way up until late 2014. As you can see from the Carfax, he always had the van serviced at the dealership he bought it from. He spared no expense. The second owner was the dealership so no worries there. It is in excellent mechanical condition and runs great. It does not have the check engine light on. The exterior is in very good shape for its age with only a couple small spots of surface rust. The interior is also in great shape. The seatbelts all work but a couple of them are missing the grey housing covers. This would be a great candidate for an RV/ Camper build. It has the 3.727 rear differential ratio. It's upgraded to 8553 lbs. It would also make for a good work van, Daycare van, or Sports team van for someone. The original owner and I have only used this van for carrying passengers. You can see from the pictures that the seats are in great shape. It has mostly highway miles.This was my second Sprinter and I have been very impressed with it. The suspension and handling of my Sprinter seems better than the last one that I owned. It is easier to control at high speeds than the last one. The engine has good acceleration but my first Sprinter seemed a little quicker. The doors all work great, much better than my first Sprinter. I really like how you can stand up in the back of these high roof Sprinters and not hit your head. There are some minor issues that I wanted to bring up. The front AC works good, but the rear AC has not worked since I bought it. I never needed the rear AC so I did not try to fix it until last week. A friend and I troubleshot it for a day. The first thing we did was check the fuses, terminals, and connectors. They were all good. Then we hooked the rear AC up to an independent power source and we were able to get the fan running. After a couple hours of tinkering and research we are pretty sure that the problem is with the Climate Control Unit in the dash. This is a fairly expensive part at $400 but the good news is that there are a couple of guys on ebay who overhaul your unit for only $99 shipped! Here is a link to an excellent thread on the Sprinter Source Forum about fixing the rear AC: search "Dodge Sprinter rear AC problem. I intended to fix the rear AC before selling it, but I have run short on time. My loss is your gain. It is probably only a $99 fix, but with a lot of bad luck it could be a $500 fix. When I bought it the power steering fluid reservoir was almost bone dry. I filled it with power steering fluid and the power steering has been working okay ever since. The power steering pump sounds loud to me but it still works. When making a big turn you notice that a little extra effort is required when you have the wheel turned close to its turning limit. It is a pretty minor thing but I wanted to let the next owner know. The key remote works on all the locks accept the side door. Just wanted to mention that it has electric mirrors and they work. The tires are 6 month old Goodyear Wranglers with 80% tread. The flooring is in great shape. The 2002-06 Dodge Sprinters have a much better reputation for reliability than the later model Sprinters. After 2006 Dodge and Mercedes installed blue tec emission fluid to all their Sprinters. I am selling it because I no longer have a need for it.For recent maintenance I changed the fuel filter, air filter, oil, and OEM coolant. I have the receipts. It has the upgraded spare tire carrier that makes changing a tire much easier than the standard cable drop version like on most Sprinters. It has the factory rear backing sensor that lets you know how many inches the back bumper is from an object. It also has nice aftermarket running boards. They work great and make getting in and out much easier than normal. Note: The partition that is shown in one of the interior photos is not included. Serious Buyers Only Please! Minimum feedback requirement of 3 to bid. If you have less than 3 feedback, please send a message for approval. No loans. I have sold motorcycles, cars, and trucks on ebay in the past and have never had an unsatisfied buyer. Please note in my feedback that I recently sold a $500+ set of motorcycle boxes and that I bought a Prius on ebay recently also. After the end of the auction the buyer has 24 hours to make a $400 Paypal deposit. The remainder of the auction price is due within 7 days. I can assist with shipping by dropping the van off at a shipping company within 30 miles of Des Moines, IA. The van can also be picked up in Gulfport, MS. I am a pilot who flies regularly between these 2 locations. The van must be paid for in full via wire transfer before I drop it off at the shippers. I will overnight you the title. I can also pick you up at the Des Moines International Airport or Gulfport/Biloxi International if you want to fly in and drive it back. I just did a 1000 mile trip with it and would trust it to drive to either coast. If you want to have it inspected at your expense that is fine. Thank you for looking at my auction!

Through my research I have learned that the Climate Control Unit acts as a micro processor which controls both the front and rear AC compressors. When the rear AC switch is turned on, the climate control unit is supposed to signal the rear AC compressor to turn on. The stock climate control units on these Dodge Sprinters are famous for breaking/ partially breaking in the 100-200K mile range. Here is the info from one of the repair service companies who fixes them for $99 shipped://////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////Does Your Air Condition Heater Temp Control Not Work Properly Anymore?Known Problems: - Cannot control temperature- Fan does not work properly - AC Compressor does not engage - Mode Knob or Temp Knob stuck- No signal to Condenser fan Now there is finally a solution! REPAIR KIT that will eliminate all common problems in those Climate Controls . After years of research and several thousands of those controls repaired I created a REPAIR KIT that will eliminate all known problems in those controls. You will ship me your failed climate control.I will provide free installation. I will also replace burned illumination bulbs and do a final test on the control.Your Control will be shipped back to you within 2 days.///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// First, I would highly recommend that you download a copy of the service manual. There is an excellent chapter (Ch 24) on the rear AC that includes a detailed description for the rear A/C controls and how to troubleshoot these components . Your problem could be a number of things - bad control module, a/c clutch relay, high pressure and low pressure switches. What happens when the switch for the rear system is turned on - do the circulation fans turn on? Check the easy and simple things first - fuses, terminals and connectors. I also agree with mendosy - time for a new mechanic. The rear compressor should have never been wired to the front compressor. The ATC (climate control) is a micro processor and expensive to replace ($400.00 new) just for somebody's careless mistake. Bruce P.S. The rear system holds 6.5 lbs of refrigerant. Was your system serviced by weight, or by a guestimate by the number of cans used? Unless the system was properly serviced, it may not operate because of the pressure being too high or too low.__________________ 2004 US T1N 158" 2500 Passenger, High roof, Rear Air, 2.7L, - the "Crew Bus"Last edited by bc339; 07-12-2014 at 08:26 PM.

I have read chapter 24 previously, but I could not find a cause for the radiator fan issue. When the rear blower switch is turned on, the fan turns on and both speeds work. The compressor does not engage. The blue wire leading to the compressor has no power coming into it and I can't find a wiring diagram to tell me where it leads. I've checked all fuses, relays, connectors and switches, as well as replaced the transducer and front blower resistor. The rear needed 6.17lbs of r134a, which was 8 12oz cans. This was serviced by certified AC specialists. When I was talking about the 2 compressors being jumped, this is how it was connected: The blue wire for the rear was cut, and the blue power wire from the front compressor was powering both rear and front compressors. Symptoms of the 2 AC head units: old broken unit - radiator fan never turns on. May smoke after several hours of use. new unit - radiator kicks on after 30s, but only toggles between high and off. When the key is removed, the fan stays on high. You can even power the front blower until the wire harness is disconnected.

I found out that the mechanic had to jump the rear compressor with the front compressor to get it to turn on. This probably caused the AC control unit to fail, which leaves the radiator fan on high when the car is shut off. I have to disconnect the AC control unit in order to get the fan to stop. Perhaps this failed because the front compressor was on and the rear blower was not on while being wired together? Root cause: Do you have any suggestions as to why the rear compressor does not engage when the blower (1-2) switch is turned on? I'm not a mechanic, but I did make sure all fuses and wires were working and properly grounded. I ordered another climate control unit to replace the damaged one and maybe this will fix the problem? Maybe the coil in the rear clutch needs to be replaced? The rear air does work great when jumped to the front compressor, and even though the AC control unit seems to function properly, the radiator fan does not shut off when the key is removed. Parts replaced for this issue: -Rear and front compressors -drier/accumulator -blower motor resistor -climate heater/AC control x 2 -high pressure switch sensor -r134a x 9 cans - vacuumed and charged, high/low pressures are correct, both front and rear blow cold when on I appreciate your time and assistance. Thank you.The rear air system is a totally separate but it relies upon a signal which is interlinked by way of that rocker switch on the centre dash board. There are a couple of derivations for your year most were made by Maxaire of Texas. To determine this derivation slither under the van and look for a condenser/fan unit flat pancake mounted (horizontally ) against the under frame aft of the transmission. There will be a receiver dryer and pressure control switch usually mounted on the high side hoses attached to the body structure where the side sliding door sill/aperture is formed. Again (ref my other A/C posts) the wiring/operation is like a Freightliner big rig sleeper HVAC; in short a daisy chain from the under seat fuse area by using two add on relays AND a separate 30 Amp fuse. Basically when rear A/C is commanded the rocker switch (and not bridged or jumped from the front a/c compressor ---crazy ) a signal is sent to the relays which is controlling the rear A/C compressor via the binary pressure switch attached to the receiver drier. The other derivation is basically the same but is housed up in the roof pod again the wiring is set up as the under slung version. The principal issues on both of the units are condenser fans slowing due to partial seizure or are binding up. This overloads the fuse and relays, and eventual shut down of the rear air due to current load and fuse blowing. The other is wiring short downs controlling the system. Both a/c compressors pull less than 1.5 amps so cross connecting the systems might work as a jury rig set up but current load will fry any integrated circuits when current loads rise above the design point parameters . These fans are made by a Cleveland OH manufacturer for the the most part in 11 inch sizes, and direct replacements you can get from hot rod shops. So with out going into chapter and verse on the different systems that might be on your van, I think you need to investigate further on what type of system you have and use the basic tips I have given you to run down possible problem sources.

Thanks for your time and info!OK I know the system you have by the description. That 7.5 amp fuse is for the compressor clutch activation circuit and is linked to the pressure control switch on the receiver dryer. 7.5 amps is a common fuse selection for this style of A/C compressor drive design. The guys missed it because they are unfamiliar with truck A/C systems. Taking a tap off the front A/C system was asking for trouble quite frankly. The MB spec A/C clutch control activation for the front system gives a direct signal command from the internal control electronic board; designed for a singular unit, any peak overload (like jumping it to a an extra compressor) would take out the internal driver unit once peak load surge was reached. Installing a re-man /new controller should remedy the front A/C system issue you now have. As a suggestion I would recommend doing an amp draw on both A/C systems A/C clutches and all fans once it has been operating for about 30 minutes especially if it blows that 7.5 map fuse again. Use an Amp clamp on the front and a plug in unit for the rear system at the fuse holder. The essential part of any repair is to go back and make sure you haven't overlooked something either by oversight or something in the making. Seems like you have nailed it down though.

He said they were both burned in the same place, where it controls the condenser fan. I have the new AC head unit, but I'm hesitant to plug it in. I was looking over all of the wiring one more time and the ground for the front compressor looks suspect. Here is the pic: Looks like an inline resistor that is broken? For reference, here is a pic of the rear fuses: Dennis: For the amp tester, is this what you are talking about? http://www.ebay.com/itm/231282259992...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT So I run the AC unit for 30m, turn the car off, plug this in, turn the car back on and read the amps/volts? Can I use a regular digital multimeter instead of an amp clamp? Not sure I found the right tester. After talking to the mechanic, he said he jumped the compressors as a last ditch effort to get the rear compressor engaging. Really not sure if the condenser fan was working correctly before the jump, which is why I'm hesitant to hook up the new AC head unit. If the condenser fan did not work before the jump, then this points to another issue that could possibly damage the 3rd unit. 07-28-2014, 11:43 PM #1004$printerBus Join Date: Oct 2012Location: South-EastPosts: 36Thanks: 6Thanked 7 Times in 6 Posts Re: Rear AC Compressor IssuesI hooked up the new Front AC Climate Control unit and everything is working flawlessly. Thanks for all of your help! Now onto other issues...On Oct-18-16 at 11:16:13 PDT, seller added the following information: Hi, someone asked about how the transmission shifts/sounds. It shifts normal between gears and does not make any sounds. You can see from the carfax that the transmission fluid was changed at 43k miles. That was the schedule 1 service and the schedule 2 service looks like it was done at the 83k mile mark. The dealership probably did not have enough lines to list everything they did. I will give them a call and make sure it was done then also.
