Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The problem that i am having is with the gauges. my abs and check engine soon light comes on and the gauges go out. i can tell how fast i'm going i can tell how much gas i have and my doors will not lock themselves. i have had the computer reset. we have diconnected the negitive battery cable and reconnected it. we have beat on the dash till they come back on. these are only temp fixes because pretty soon here comes the lights out goes the gauges. the transmission was replaced 2 years ago because aparently after about 79000 miles the transmissions go out on these vans. we the transmission starts shifting funny is when this problem accures. i love my van i just cant handle its problems. we are not the only ones having this problem either everyone i have talked to has replaced their transmissions at 79000 miles and is having the same gauge problems i am having.
