2003 Cavavan Starting Problem

Hello peeps,

   I have a 2003 Caravan (White) pfff  lol,  I wanted to move it and
it started 2 or 3 times buy shutting down after 2-3 scs of start...   i

added fuel thinking i lacked it.  I tried again with NO starter  coming

on,  saw a  "P (numbers)"     *can't recall*  where the millage is.  i
unpluged the batt.
to see if it would make a change but now since i know "P (numbers)" was

error code,  i get a "P 1684" which is       "A {Dumbass} disconnected
the
batt"...{----} still fuming.   i get no starter coming on still, Fuel
pump is audible.  can it be that fuel filter clogged and it sends a
high pressure reading to CPU and keeps the starter from turning ?
How can i get or can i get previous error codes ?
I hear a "click" sound coming from engine fuse compartment,  and still

no starting.  Mind you,  i can care less about the old codes,  i want
my van to start.    How much does the blue book 2003 Caravan say ?  lol

You need to read what you just posted and see if it makes sense to you.

Oh Glen  hello,  i am French and frustrated abt this issue.

Its started 2 to 3 times by shutting down right away.  I tried again
with NO starter turning.  I added gas.  I can hear the fuel pump coming
on.  Can a clogged fuel filter keep the starter from turning ?
Automatic shut down is switched by what ?

Aahhhh so im American and your going to frustrate me trying to figure this
out? Ok I will take a shot at you grammar.
You say it started 2 or 3 times and shut right down? Now you tried again and
the starter did not turn? Here is the confusing part......... Why would you
add gas to a problem that wont crank? If it doesn't crank what does adding
gas have to do with this?
And after it wont crank what happens? does it have to sit for about an hour
before it does it again? Does this vehicle have a SKIM KEY (vehicle theft)
Is the key gray?
And what does a fuel filter have to do with a car that wont crank?????  What
you are describing to me sounds as if you are having SKIM problems.
Read and answer my questions Please!!
