Radio, wipers, windows, heat not working when i start

Asked by Debra Feb 20, 2018 at 10:51 AM about the 2002 Dodge Caravan Sport FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Okay.. So we've been having some issues with our
van. Haven't drove it in about a month and a half.
We get in it yesterday and nothing would turn on in
the van. About a mile or two down the road
everything worked. Came back home and it
stopped working again. My husband replaced the
altenator and battery both were bad. Which we
already expected. But now, everything inside the
van will work with the key turned but not started.
Once i start it they all shut off. Also when he
replaced those the check engine light went away..
Until he gave the side of the radio consol a hard
tap, radio and heat came on for a few but the
engine light also came back  ..  Have any ides
whatout could be?

I had seen on another page, some people said it was the Hazard Fuse. Did you ever get this fixed? What was the problem?
