Here's a very strange starting problem.
03 Caravan.
Started it no prob. this a.m.
Drove 20 min
Parked for 1/2 hr.
Started up three times but only ran for 10 secs. then died.
Left for 1 hour, started just fine and has started numerous times since then.
I'm not naive enough to think that this is the end of the problem.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

I missed something important. After dying three times there was no more power to the starter....just a click like a dead battery. Since then has been starting fine.

Perhaps a long shot but a number of us have had issues with the ignition switch. Try shooting LockEase or any product with liquid graphite into the switch and see what happens.
