The Rampage Contractor Center Console # RA39423 could be a great solution on the floor and turned around so the cup holders face the seats instead. This depends entirely on the floor space available in your Dodge Caravan. The dimensions are 18-1/2" Long x 10-1/2" Wide x 8" Tall so taking some measurements there to confirm you have more than this length, height, and width available to accommodate the unit.

Dodge Caravan Turn Signals not Working Once Wiring Harness Installed
You do not mention the model year of your Caravan, but I can give you some general things to check. Although it is not very common, I would make sure that the bulbs are not burned out, and that the appropriate fuses are not blown. Depending on the model year, if the T-1 Connector plugs inline with the existing taillight wiring, it is possible that one or more of the connectors have worked their way loose. I would make sure that the connectors are still firmly seated and that the locking...

There were 3 possible transmissions that could be on your 2000 Dodge Caravan. The 41TE is a 4-speed and its return line is the one in the front of the transmission. The A31TH is a 3-speed and its return line is the one on the top of the transmission. There is another 3-speed, A670, but I cannot find the information on which line is its return line.

Jayco offered the 1999 Eagle 10-UD Pop-Up camper trailer with and without brakes, so I presume you have the version without any brakes.

Trailer Running Lights Not Working On a 2001 Dodge Grand Caravan
Since your trailer is working correctly with another vehicle the problem most likely lies in the wiring of the Grand Caravan. Turn the tail lights on and use a circuit tester, item # 3808 if needed, to check the trailer connector. If the taillight circuit is not working, you will need to follow the wiring back into the vehicle until you find the converter, the black box that the trailer wiring is coming out of. Test the brown wire on the trailer side of the converter. If the wire is working...

Trouble Shooting No Brake Lights on a Trailer Connected to a 1996 Dodge Caravan With 7-Way 30717
The first thing we need to do is narrow down where the problem lies. Disconnect part # 30717 from the 4-Way that was originally in place.

Can the Ventline Ventadome Trailer Roof Vent be Installed in a 1 Inch Thick Roof
After inspecting roof vent # V2094SP-30 and the included bezel, I have come to the conclusion that you would just need to trim 13/16 of an inch off the bezel on the end that sticks into the vent. This should allow you to flush mount the vent and bezel in your 1 inch thick roof. I also recommend installation kit # 344270KITW which comes with the hardware, tape, and sealant needed for installation.

Trailer Wiring Harness Taillight Converter is Blowing Fuse on 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan
The converter has most likely shorted out and needs to be replaced. This will typically occur when one of the lighting circuits on the trailer shorts out, but you can certainly begin by examining that power feed to the converter box from the battery. If that power feed checks out okay, you'd want to replace the existing converter with part # C56331. On the trailer, trace each of the lighting circuits from the trailer connector back to the lamps. Look for loose connections, broken or pinched...
