i have a 2004 dodge neon sxt and im having an electrical problem. the car keeps flashing "fuse" which should mean it has a bad fuse. the interior dome light and the power door locks dont work and they both connected to the same fuse. i checked the fuse and its not blown, i also checked all the other fuses and they are all good but the is still flashing "fuse". i also checked the fuses under the hood and they are all good. what could be the problem?
The dome tight is actually a combo fuse/light. If that light is burned out; 1 the locks won't work, and 2 the odometer will flash "FUSE" and 3 the "DOOR" warning light will stay on - try replacing the bulb. If it stays on with all the doors closed, more then likely one of the switches that are built into each of the door latches is not making the correct contact to shut off the dome light/dash light. The correct fix is to replace the defective latch. The other option is to just cut the wires that feel the switch inside the door - then the car will think that door is always closed and the lights will not come on when you open that door.

how do i bypass the anti-theft system on 2004 dodge neon
Here are some ways to bypass or reset the anti-theft system:
1. Insert the key into the ignition and try to start it up, it won't. Leave the key in the ON position for at least 10 minutes, you would notice that the security light blinks and goes away. Now, switch of the car, wait for five to ten seconds, and start.
2. With all doors and windows closed, put the car's key in the driver's side door to unlock it. Hold the key in the unlock position for at least 30 seconds; this tells the car that the right key is being used.
3. Disconnect both battery terminals for atleast two hours. Put the car key in the ON position and then connect both battery leads at the same time. Wait for 15 minutes, and the car should work fine.

need location of fuse box containing cigarette lighter fuse
On some vehicles the cigarette lighter fuse is attached to the cigarette lighter assembly itself. Check if you can gently prise the cigarette lighter assembly out of its location in the dashboard, or remove any panel that may allow access to the rear of the cigarette lighter and look for the fuse (it may be an in-line one in the power lead to the cigarette lighter or it may be physically attached to the cigarette lighter itself). Failing that, the fusebox is normally under the dashboard on the driver side, but some fuseboxes can be found under the dashboard on the passenger side. There should be a diagram under the fusebox cover that shows what circuits each fuse protects. If a fuse has blown ensure that another of the same type and value is used to replace it.

dodge neon code p0456
What does that mean?
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) at different times performs various tests on the EVAP system. OBD II Enhanced EVAP systems are in place to keep fuel tank vapors from venting into the atmosphere, and instead purges them into the engine to be burned. Regular pressure tests are conducted by the PCM to monitor the sealed system for leaks. The PCM monitors the EVAP system pressure by watching the fuel tank pressure (FTP) sensor. When the sensor indicates a small leak in the EVAP system, this code is set.
FB.init("dd7d9e9681341cde77587bc6a2029f6f");
OBD-Codes.com on Facebook
Potential Symptoms
There will likely be no noticeable symptoms other than the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). This is because the EVAP system is a closed system and only controls fuel tank vapors, not engine management.
Causes
Usually this P0456 code is caused by an incorrect or faulty gas cap. Filling the fuel tank with the engine running could conceivable cause this code as well or if the cap wasn't properly tightened. Any of the following could also be the cause:
Possible Solutions
First, using a scan tool activate the vent solenoid, sealing the system. Then monitor the fuel tank pressure (FTP) sensor. If the system is sealing properly, the number will stay consistent. If is isn't, the pressure sensor will show that as well. If the system slowly leaks, use a smoke machine and watch for smoke exiting the system at any EVAP component. Any where there is smoke exiting the system, that is the faulty component. Do not pressurize the EVAP system with air pressure. Doing so can damage the purge and vent solenoids in the system.

My oil light comes on intermittently, usually only when I am stopped, but not all the time. I figured it's warning me my pump is about to go out. I want to replace this myself but I'm not sure where it is located.
Thanks.
Oil light that comes on while in idle means the oil pump screen is clogged or damaged, cause low oil pressure to the engine. That part is only $30. It could be a bad oil pump though, if that is the case the pump can run you $100. Either way you need to get it fixed ASAP it can cause major damage to the engine in a very short period of time!

The Dash lights and rear running lights went out at the same time. So I figured it was a fuse. The problem is, I no longer have my owners Manuel to check which fuse I need to replace. Can some one help please.
