1995 DODGE CARAVAN worked perfectly until recently

1995 DODGE CARAVAN 6 cyl. worked perfectly until recently when it would not start unless the shift lever was giggled a bit while in Park.

When turning the key to start there was only a clicking sound. Giggling the shift lever while in park then allowed it to start normally. From then on it would start okay until the van had been idle for awhile. Giggling the lever allowed it to start right again.

Mechanics look at the van today and could not diagnose the problem. They said the battery and alternator worked okay.
They were also quite busy with other work though.

You need to replace the neutral starting switch on the transmission,it is a screw in type and has a connector with three wires on it,or start your van in neutral.

2006 dodge caravan, 6 cyl. relaced cole, sparkepugs and wires in oct. 2009. Engine is reading #2 cyl. misfire again. Why

Firts time swap spark plug & ignition coil between two different cylinders and read again if the same #2 cyl. misfires !
If #2 cyl. is OK and another cyl. misfires then spark plug or ignition coil is out of order and must be replaced.
If #2 cyl. misfires again then #2 injector must be checked !
If ignition coils & spark plugs (complete set for 6 cyl.) are replaced then you must check #2 injector !

Car does not shift when cold

you can try a bg trany flush and also have the shift pattern reset, what you do is unhook battery for 3min, then connect batt back start and put in low gear start to drive and shift up as you would what it to shift do the same until you reach drive then it should shift that way unless theres atrany problem, but try that bg flush first,hope this is helpful.

My 1995 dodge caravan needs warmed before going into reverse

Trans is internally worn and only sealing properly when parts are hot. I would change fluid and filter just to be sure pressure loss is not from filter but if it does not improve, start saving up for a rebuild.
