Why would the Speedometer stop working on a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan?

Answer 1

I have a 2003 Town and Country where the speedometer stopped working. Apparently a low battery conditon caused the needle to end up on the wrong side of the peg. Perhaps this will work for your '05 Caravan. Look closely at your needle to see if is on the lower side of the peg (i.e. the peg prevents it from moving up to indicate your speed), if so, this may work. By holding down the trip reset button (no key needed) for 5 to 7 seconds, you can initiate a dash diagnostic. Release the button once you see the odometer start to flash codes. Nearly every light on the dash will light up at some point as well as the gauges move around (kinda scary if your not expecting it). At the end, the needle should return (via the long way around) to the correct side of the needle. Good Luck!
