When I turn on my van stability control and traction control light come on and the light for my gear shifter doesn't show what gear I'm in. And when I drive the van doesn't shift gears. Any ideas what could be wrong?

Good morning,

The yellow ABS light should be on as well. That is the module that controls the other systems. There is or are codes stored in the system for faults. I need those codes.

Not shifting can be related to this but I will know more when you get me the codes.

You can have a parts store read them for free. Let me know what they come up with.

Okay, this is for the body control module. This module will control all the issues that are current.

Most likely you will be replacing it. It is a module that must be programmed.
