Hi, here are two possible solutions that worked for other owners having similar problems:

A solution on DodgeForum.com suggests unplugging the battery for an hour or so, then reattaching it, which worked for one owner.

An owner on AvengerForumz.com had a similar issue, which turned out to be caused by a loose fuse. Check your fuses to make sure they are all sitting tight.
