The brake light is a separate issue and is either a bad brake light switch or the switch is out of adjustment. The instrument cluster is a known problem and can be a broken solder joint or a bad ground connection inside the negative battery terminal. Do a search for caravan instrument cluster and you'll find lots of info
Transmission leak.
Hi Al, Im AL the owner of Big As Auto Repair
Transmission leaks on a Dodge Caravan can come from many places. Front pump seal, solenoid pack, axle shaft seals, pan sealer defective, hoses, trans cooler. Look around all these places to see where your leak is then write back so I can help you further. Hope this helps and please send people to my auto-repair-website at:

Why does the rpms on my 96 dodge grand caravan just keep going up when driving
It is common for rpm's to increase, as the acceleration increases...
That is when the transmission comes into effect, when the RPMs increase, the next gear is then shifted into.
if the RPMs continue to increase, then the transmission is not shifting.
It's possible that you have a transmission or torque converter problem.
Just put a new delphi fuel pump in my1996 grand
Not likely. It is also not likely that the regulator is in the fuel pump assembly. Some people mistake the check valve in the pump as a regulator. Also, some vehicles have a pump module which includes the fuel gauge sensor and that can be mistaken as the regulator by some DIYers. The caravan uses a return-loop fuel system. This means that the pump is cycling fuel from the tank to the fuel rail on one line and the fuel that is not needed at the injectors flows back through another line to the fuel tank. This is done to prevent the pump from building up too much pressure and allows the fuel flowing through the pump to keep it cool. Because of the looping system, there needs to be a flow restrictor (aka regulator) at the fuel rail to provide a constant pressure source for the injectors. The regulator is normally at the end of the rail and will have a vacuum line attached. Pull the vacuum line, place a rag at the vacuum port, and crank the engine. There should be no fuel coming out the port. If any fuel comes out of the vacuum port, the regulator is faulty. The regulator could still be faulty even if there is no fuel from the port, but fuel leakage is an easy way to be sure. If the regulator is not providing proper restriction to maintain pressure, then the fuel simply flows in a circular loop from and back to the fuel tank without enough pressure to allow the injector to do their thing,
Two new fuel pumps in my 1996 grandcaravan. Still
Are you getting at least 12 volts to the harness on the pump and also is it grounded good? Have you checked the fuse for the fuel pump and the fuel pump relay? Is the ASD relay coming on when you turn the switch to run position? Several more things to check to solve your no start condition.
What does IOD stands for
I found that it is probably a fuse called "Ignition off draw". Chrysler uses that fuse for radio memory, dome lights, etc.... This fuse is usually removed when the car will be stored for a long time so the battery is not drawn down.
