Re: 1995 caravan trans troubles
It is in what they call "Limp Home Mode." All this means is the TCM found something wrong. If your trans fluid is clean you may be able to fix it. There are a few things that are possibilities. The input and output speed sensors, (when the output sensor is bad the speedo doesn't work) the PRNDL switch or there is a problem with the solenoid pack. There could just be a dirty connection on one or more of the sensors. The harness plug on the solenoid pack can get wet if it is loose. If you do not find anything here, try changine the fluid and filter. If this doesn't do it, you can rebuild the solenoid pack for about $17. It is very easy. You can buy the kit here:
