About the 2006 Dodge Caravan
Model year 2006 is part of the fourth-generation Caravan (RS) (2001–2007). Most procedures are shared with the other years of this generation, but engines, options and wiring changed from year to year, so the manual is made for the 2006 model year.
Check the model year on your VIN: on a 2006 vehicle the 10th character of the 17-digit VIN is “6”. Vehicles built for North America always carry the model year in that position; on some European or Australian vehicles it may be left unused, so in that case go by the registration papers or the build plate.
At about 20 years old, a 2006 vehicle is in the age range where wiring, rubber hoses, seals and corrosion repairs take most of the work, and where original factory information is hardest to find.
Same generation: 2004 Dodge Caravan, 2005 Dodge Caravan, 2007 Dodge Caravan.
