Car speedometer quit working

My 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan's speedometer stopped working today.  The tachometer also winds out to 3000 rpm and I cannot tell if the transmission if shifting.  Is my transmission going out?  Is it safe to drive short distance (like to a repair shop!)

    2004 Grand Caravan Speedometer and Tachometer quit working after jump starting the dead battery. Any ideas?

  • Rich_laroche Oct 27, 2008

    Driving and transmission seemed like it was slipping, tach and speedometer went crazy and then the speedo stopped working all together. Have had no problems with the transmission lately but how do i fix the speedometer? Can I do it myself? How much does it cost?

No upshift and no speedometer means the output speed sensor is bad on the tranny

My dodge grand caravan today threw a 700 engine code transmission module, car wont go over 25 and only has powered acceleration for first 5 seconds car is on.
700 is a generic transmission code. It went to limp mode, that's why it drives like it does. Have the codes read with a newer /better code reader or a scanner. Find out what other codes are in there.

Speedometer not working on my Grand Caravan 3.3l, 2000.
common problem on those is the speedometer unit itself. plenty at junk yards or you can have yours rebuilt. first check connections behind the speedometer. they are all electronic, no cables.

Model 2002 dodge grand caravan sports dashboard not working speedometer, tachometer and fuel gauge
If you look under the dashboard on the driver's side, there is a fuse panel. Under this panel is the BCM(body control module). There may be a bad relay in the bcm. Worse case scenario is a bad BCM. I hope this information is helpful to you, Good luck.

2000 Dodge Grand Caravan Speedometer and Tach not working
sit in the drivers seat close the door. with the key off hold the trip odometer button in then while holding the button in turn the key on. if done correctly this will put the MIC (mechanical instrument cluster) into a self test. if the speedometer does not move like the rest of the gauges during this test the MIC must be replaced. if the speedometer does move it is likely your problem will be fixed, however, if the speedometer does move but it does not start working properly then further diagnostic will be needed.

I have a 92 dodge caravan and everything works in it but the guages just quit working the fuse is still good and the lights are still working in the dash
OK, check the sending units that provide the gauges information. these sensor/modules may be malfunctioning. If the speedometer and tachometer are not working, it may be because of the cables.
