Dodge journey battery saver mode

I recently purchased a used journey crew, all inspections cleared, 1 month in while driving the car entered safe mode. Once I was able to pull over and place in park there was a complete loss of power, no lights, no gauges not even a door signal. After being towed, the fob still doesn't work, still no power the next day. So how can we assist you? You only stated of having it towed, has anything been diagnosed like the state of the car battery and charging system? Some specifics like how long is recently purchased and miles on the DJ would be helpful for further assistance from fellow Journey owners here. Battery registered as good condition.

Dodge journey battery saver mode

The purpose of the "battery saver mode" is to prevent running down the battery by accidentally leaving on the lights or some accessory while the motor is not running. Things turn off automatically after about 10 minutes. That way you don't come back to a "dead car" after parking it with the lights left on. Incidentally, cars without this preventive feature will usually start after a few minutes after turning off all electrical loads and waiting for the battery to recover. I hope this helps. Yes, this does help. My alternator Dodge calls it a generator in Alldata just failed this morning, and while it did not fail completely, it would drop to But no red dash light, only the "Battery Saver Mode" message. And the battery was still good. And FYI Journey owners, if your vehicle has keyless entry, pay very close attention when shutting the engine off. If you stop, give the off button a quick push and exit the vehicle, you may have accidentally pushed the button twice, and left the ignition in the accessory on position.

Matt answered 9 years ago. Battery saver mode? You mean the battery light, right? Sounds like a charging system issue. There may be a problem with the alternator or battery. GuruZG42M answered 6 years ago. Luis answered 5 years ago.

What does it mean. Does it associate with my battery being dead last month? Is it an indication of weak battery! I called dealership about it and they schedule me for next two weeks! I just wanna know if forum member gave experience like this also! Vehicles with EVIC warning display can display a battery saver message. Thanks for sharing.. Im just confuse about it. Since i have schedule to dealership next next week should i ask them to replace with the new battery?

It's still under 36, miles so it should covered under the basic warranty. Took the car to the dealer this morning and after 2 hrs they did not find any history of the battery saver mode and said that alternator and battery passed with flying colours. You said daqh was going off, did this happen while you were driving? Got it fixed today with a whopping bill of lol for brand new battery it killed and the alternator.. Is there an easy way to find this out for a specific vehicle? And the battery was still good. Share your experience with others.

I tow the car changed battery and cables but it showed same lights and not starting car and show the massage Ignition or other accessory is On. This happened twice until we figured out what was wrong with it. I adjusted, restarted the car and no more error code, checked the voltage and it was If the battery didn't get too low, it will likely come back to life with a few days on the trickle charger. Once I was able to pull over and place in park there was a complete loss of power, no lights, no gauges not even a door signal. Ya know when all this crap was happening with my journey, I was almost ready to burn the bloody thing and take the loss cause I was so pissed off that no one could find my problem. I am showing that have a amp alternator so therefore your vehicle would not be included in this recall at this time. I was frantic and didn't know what the hell was going on My radiator fan relay went out so the fan wouldn't shut off so my Journeys battery would die. And the battery was still good.
