when i took it apart to fix bad light bulbs. fit worked fine, now i went to put it all back together now it dose not work every thing is dead but the lights. it even effects the trans and over head concle to. i plugged every thing in right had it back out 3 times. what did i do? this is not a good time for this to happen i need to get this fix plans to leave out of town Friday morning. i will look in to old threads to se if i can dig any thing up. but if you guys can point me in a direction i sure would appreciate it.

 

probably replace the cluster or fix broken solder joints on the plug. when you removed it, you could have damaged the already flimsy joint assuming you have a 96-00 van which you failed to mention

its me with the 2000 3.3 grand caravan. i just bought it last week. i did find a old thread about it. and found one where you was having some trouble with yours. i am going to recheck the pins in the back. and try to wiggle the plug and see if any thing will come to life. i see this effects every thing from dash,over head panel, to trans.

 

i did get just about every thing else working but now it is just the dash giving me fits now. should of left it in and just pop the top panel off the check eng was the bulb i need to replace. if i knew then what i know now!

 

"ever since I fixed my car, it's broke worse"

 

got it fixed back where it plugs in 3 pins had the solder busted, works great now. ready to take a 600 mile trip

 

not until you get the check engine light to turn off. 600 mile trip? taking a tour of Walmarts in your state? lol

 

no have to go to LA and back to Vegas we are taking 2 cars just in case something goes wrong as this is its maiden voyage. but every thing is runing good so we will see. thanks for all your help
