If the CEL is on the first thing you need to do is have the code checked, which you can do by taking the van in to your local major chain auto parts store that offers to do it for free. Write the code(s) down (should be a P followed by some numbers) and Google it. There are a few websites out there that have decent listings of the problems that can cause any particular code.

Just from the symptoms you describe I would guess your A/C compressor or compressor clutch is seized or otherwise effed, but you should definitely get the code pulled before throwing any parts/money at it.
