No start condition do below

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs,coil's resistances,distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it

understand what you are saying put on scanner no codes. fuel pump,cam/crank sensor and coil don;t explain why my gauges went dead.plus the no bus code. i am thinking something electrical. runs great untill dash freaks out.

What I've suggested was for this: van keeps on stalling now won't start, as for the gauges its defintely an electrical problem. Could be the ignition switch itself

The no start info is good advise but i think the electrical problem is the key with no gauges and odometer flashig no bus. As far as the ignition switch i already changed the electrical box for the ignition because i here they have alot of problems. do you have any more sugestions.please help me. have you ever heard of the no bus thing. my snap-on scanner says to check the iod fuse. but i could not find the location anywhere.I only found a relay marked iod and i changed it with no luck i pulled all fuses under hood and in van all where good.
