Not to take anything from your mechanic, but it looks like he's had mostly GM
training, and probably has mostly GM experience. You may be better off with
somebody who is experienced with the Chrysler systems. Being familiar with a
system is a big advantage.

He designed a current probe? Any decent automotive lab scope kit will come with
one of those, and they're not $400.

Again, he may be good, but this problem has been going on for quite a while now
with no fix in sight.

Does he have a DRB?
