I left the key in the ON position all night. My husband jumped my van off this morning and now all of my instrument panel is non-responsive. RPM's, speedometer, gas gauge and panel lights will not come on. Is there a reset I need to perform?

It was the OBD port reset. Unplug the pin connections under the dash. Turn the car ignition to ON. Check under the fuse box, you will see a green plug with a white bar. If the bar is tripped, press the bar in, slide the red lever down and the plug the pin connections back in. Gauges and lights should immediately come on and door ajar/ key alert "ding" will sound. Good to go! Thanks for responding!!
