There's another thread on this very issue around a couple of years ago. Believe coolant gets into the pump electrical circuit ruining/shorting the connections requiring the pump replacement.
I've looked around. Will likely just replace the pump.There's another thread on this very issue around a couple of years ago. Believe coolant gets into the pump electrical circuit ruining/shorting the connections requiring the pump replacement.
Since this is the 2nd 2015 HC with this issue that we've seen here, talk to your service mgr and ask him/her to chat with their District Svc Manager about covering under warranty. You can also contact the SRT Hotline and start a Case.I've looked around. Will likely just replace the pump.
When this happened to my challenger it was because the intercooler pump shorted out. I took the air box out and underneath there is a hard to get to connector that had corroded.Mine is doing this as well. What was the outcome ?
I tried to get this connection loose and just couldn’t get both hands on it. Guess I’ll pop the fender liner out tomorrowWhen this happened to my challenger it was because the intercooler pump shorted out. I took the air box out and underneath there is a hard to get to connector that had corroded.
As a preventative, could an owner of a 2015 fill that connection with silicone grease before putting it back? (before it became a problem.)I tried to get this connection loose and just couldn’t get both hands on it. Guess I’ll pop the fender liner out tomorrow
Could it be a 2015-only problem?I had this happen on a 2015 Challenger Hellcat. The wife went through an automatic car wash and it shorted out the intercooler pump. The pump still worked but would not shut off unless I pulled the fuse.
It should be a Dielectric Grease which is designed to do exactly what you want:As a preventative, could an owner of a 2015 fill that connection with silicone grease before putting it back? (before it became a problem.)
It’s right under the air box but I couldn’t get it disconnected that way. I had to pull the fender guards out@srtadam great pics, thanks. I’ll inspect mine when I put the car up in the fall. I would try cleaning the contacts with a wire brush first if possible and snotting it all up with dielectric grease before replacing any harness. Is the harness right there after removing the airbox or do you have to fish around for it? I’ve read its a pita to disconnect.
