Question
2003 Grand Caravan instrument panel problem...When starting the van the speedometer and tach go from zero to max, and slowly back to zero. The gear indicator and odometer go out, and the fuel indicator goes to "E". This all happens at the same time. When the speedometer and tach get back to zero they start working. Then the gear indicator and odometer come on, and the low fuel lite comes on just before the fuel guage goes back to the correct reading. This happens usually on the first start of the day. After that it works normally. What's going on? Thanks!

Answer
The instrument panel on your van is controlled by the body computer on your van and most likely have set a fault code in that system.You will need a scan tool to be able to get the fault code out of this system to be able to diagnois the problem.there are software updates that need to be done on this controller by the dealer if they have not been done and these will have to be done with a scan tool as well
