Hi Pros,

My van is stuck in first gear.

On my dashboard, the tachometer is working but the speedometer isn't. The odometer isn't incrementing either. Also, all of the 'PRND3L' indicators are hilighted so I can't tell visually what gear I'm in.

Any insight on how to correct this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

Most likely you have lost power to the TCM
check fuses, and wiring

check TCM for codes another common issue is
tranny solenoid pack
