Would anyone have a clue what would cause a 1997 Dodge Caravan not to shift out of 1st gear, able to drive...just wont shift

try changing the outputspeed sensor. I have a 2000 caravan with 193000 miles. It was doing same thing, change the sensor and now its work right. I thought I needed a new tranny.

The speed sensor sends a signal to the speedometer to show the correct speed and it sends a signal to the transmission telling when to shift. If the speed sensor is bad the speedometer will not work and the transmission will not shift correctly.
