If it's the intermittent gauge syndrome here are two tutorials that others have posted. It's a simple procedure that takes about two hours to do. Plus you get to go up close and personal with what's behind the plastic covering on your dash!

Wow I really enjoy the photo show. I didn't know how complicated it was until I saw it in detail. No wonder I take it back to the dealer.
Well I had made a complaint to dodge about what happen as they sent email to me to do a survey. The next day the manager called me. And he agreed that I should not be charged for another diagnois test to be done. So he told me to bring it in today as last week they were to busy. So I took it in this morning and they drove me back home. Said my van should be ready or look at by 4. Well they call me back at 2 this afternoon told me there is a problem with the circuit board and it has to be replaced. I don't understand why they didn't get it right the first time. As in my post before the computer froze up and had to be rebooted. But when I got it home it was doing it intermaintely. At least work most of the time. lol Well the bad news was I wasn't getting my van back today. Luckily my sister in law stop over and took me to the store to get a few things. They said they had to order the part from Chicago. We are in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and I should have my van back tomorrow. Also they got it covered from the extended warranty from warrantech. I have no deductible on it either. The sad thing is my 6 yr/100, 000 miles warranty ends June 2008. I only have 54,700 miles on it. But this warranty has really saved me alot of money over the years. I just wish I can continue the warranty on it longer since I don't have many miles on it.
Well I am finally getting it fixed hopefully the right way! And thanks everyone for all the help!
