2002 DODGE CARAVAN ALL OF A SUDDEN TURNS OVER BUT
If it is turning over, this means that the battery has power. I am not sure you will accomplish anything by jump starting a battery that has power in it. You need to figure out what your engine does not have. It needs 3 main things to run....fuel, spark, and compression. If an engine has all 3 of these things at the right time it will run, take away one of these and it will not. I would make sure you have fuel pressure at the fuel rail and make sure you have spark to your spark plugs first off.
2002 DODGE CARAVAN IF MY PROBLEM IS THE STARTER
Nope, the starter relay controls the starter, if the starter is turning the engine over then it is working and you have another problem. Either you aren't getting fuel or you aren't getting spark. Or possibly compression, but I would think it is one of the other items before it would loose compression.
Why is battery light on
Most times when tour battery light is on in dash, it means your battery is not being charged by the alternator , most like had a bad alternator
Could a missing flow straightener prevent a/c from cooling?
No . it will not affect the cooling. If the compressor was replaced because of internal failure it is possible that there is metal stuck in the TX valve orifice preventing full fluid flow to allow the evaporator to work properly. Basically how an ac system works is this . There is gas in the system. A compressor turns this gas to a liquid in the condenser. This is achieved by the TX valve restricting the flow to the evaporator ( bit under the dash). As there is a low pressure in that unit from the compressor trying to suck the gas out then the liquid is converted back to gas ( boiling off quickly from the heat in the car) which cools the air around the evaporator . The process is repeated . IF the tx valve becomes blocked or overloaded by excessive compressor oil then you have problems with cooling.. Have it checked out by an accredited ac specialist shop as the differating pressures between the suction and high pressure sides of the compressor will reveal why it is not cooling.
Weres the knock sensor locatedon a 2002 dodge caravan
ok you did not say what size engine but a knock sensor is not use on the 3.0 v6 engine,the knock sensor is mounted on the side of the engine block and detects a knock in any cylinder during combustion it sends a signal to the pcm,then the pcm retards the ignition timing
