    My 1999 Chrysler Town&Country had some strange indications. The gear
    wouldn't shift up, the engine service light came on and the speedometer
    doesn't work.
    After searching the internet on a solution I disconnected the battery
    in order to reset the computer. The engine service light is out now
    buth the speedometer and shift problems are still present.

    Can anybody help me on this issue?

    Thanks

    Putting out the service light isn't a "fix." What was the code before
    you did that, or did you just wipe the computer to get rid of the
    light without fixing the problem? If you did, you've just opened up a
    can of worms for yourself, as you'd wiped out diagnostic information.
    Must be "dutch logic" at work here!

    No speedometer and non-shifting gears would indicate (most likely) that one
    of the two speed sensors on the transmission is bad. Though there is the
    SLIM chance that there could be a wiring problem to one or the other...

    Een veel voorkomend probleem. Vervang de speedsensor op de bak.
    It's a common problem. Replace the speedsensor on the tranny.
