I have a 1996 Chrysler 3.8. town and country mini van

The oil pressure light probably came on when the engine stopped.
You would have lost your power accessories then too.
Someone will need to figure out if you have lost fuel to the injectors and/or spark to the plugs to know where to look for the problem.

My 1999 chyrsler town and country mini van 3.3 lt engine is having problems. This Morning my speedometer quit working and my car is not shifting gears. It wont switch gears properely and the service engine...

The output speed sensor may have come unplugged or got damaged. It is at the front of trans close to the drivers side tire. If you lay on the ground in front of the tire you should be able to see it.

Trans slipping

Yes, they will swap over, but you may have trouble with the higher torque output of the 3.8 if you like to "get on it" more than the average van owner.

Could a bad 02 sensor affect shifting in my 1996 chrysler town & country? When I started having problems I put a scanner on it, and the only code it put out was for a oxygen sensor. Could the 02 sensor...

Yes, the car will probably shift harder (if it has an automatic transmission) and it won't shift correctly when you try to accelerate at speeds over 30 MPH (it will downshift too many gears).

Van is not shifting out of 2nd gear?

I am going to assume you have the overdrive trans. This trans defualts to second gear if the trans computer detects there is a problem.

This problem can be anything from internal falure to sensors that are bad. You have to scan it for trans codes. It could be a simple input or output speed sensor. that is the easiest. however you have to start with the scan.

Most Advance and Autozone parts stores will scan for free.

Hope this helps and hope it is not internal.

02 Chrysler Town and Country Service Engine Light

If your torque converter is starting to come apart it could cause severe damage to the rest of the transmission. If it is affordable I would try a second opinion though.
