The check engine light turns on and the MPH gauge drops to 0, but the engine RPM gauge does not change.
Well yes but no,the speedometer signal comes from speed sensor in the transmission then goes through the ecm/pcm via the tcm (transmission control module, then on to your speedo,if the speed sensor goes bad usually the speedometer will work crazy if not at all also the instument clusters also go bad causing failure too find a new tech dude

SOURCE: 999 Dodge Durango stalling and getting the NO BUS
Hi,
I had the same problem stalling losing all power shuts down and dangerous. I first thought fuel systems because it would crank but not start. After a a bit it would start up go for awhile then die again with" no bus" showing on the dash. After reading on line about so many others with the same problem I ordered a computer for 249.99+ tax recieved it out of FL(solo automotive electronics ) a few days later and installed it my self (very simple 5 min job) it fixed the problem and now seems to run and shift smoother(and no stalling) . I read countless stories of dealers failing to solve this problem costing people from $800+ for parts and labor that were not needed and then finally replace the PCM (computer) I hope this help save you some time money and frustration.

Change the oil! The 318Cu in V8 (5.2 liter) engine has a problem with sludge build up on the oil pump pickup tube screen. This engine requires oil changes at or before 3500 miles with a high detergent oil.
SOURCE: No bus
have ran into this problem before. the cluster was the problem. was a big thing with the jeeps. best bet is to get a used one from a salvage yard. the mileage is saved in the ecm. and is cheaper then a new one.

I need to get a smog done here in calif. but the tech has showed me where all the sensors are INC reading when he plugs into the computer. I think it is the ECM but with the MPH gauge dropping to 0 I was wondering it this could be coming from the transmission computor.
Thanks for any help, Bob
I take it a new ecm/pcm is in order. And I can't find a new tech because that is me. Just wanted to make sure before I spend the money for it.
Thanks for the reply, Bob
