Replace Blower Resistor for 2000 Chrysler Town and Country
After all the speeds of my fan for the heater and a/c blower quit working except for only on high, I was surprised to find out that I could fix it with only an $11 part from my local car part store. The hardest part was just finding where the blower motor resistor pack went. I believe it is the same on a Dodge Caravan type mini-van as well.

Resetting speedometer on 2001-2006 Caravan
So your speedometer needle is on the wrong side of the stop pin on your 2001-2006 Dodge Caravan or Town and Country. This usually happens when the vehicle voltage drops to low and you turn the key on the needle will go up to and then roll over to rest on the wrong side of the speedometer, so you may want to ensure you have proper voltage levels as well. I'll show you how to reset it. First thing is put the key in the ignition but do not turn it. Ok so at the bottom of the instrument panel is the trip button, push and hold that until you see SoF *** then release the button. This is the software version in use. Next you will see E CodE this is the instrument panels diagnotics codes this tells you if your instrument panel has faults (important this is not engine diagnostic codes). If a code is displayed then write it down. In the link below you can find out what the codes mean. Now the next thing you will see is end then all the lights will come on and the needles will start to dance and it will preform a calibration let it go when your odometer returns to normal then it is done and the speedo needle will be reset.

2004 Dodge Ram instrument Panel/ Cluster (Part 1)
Cluster background lights not working, interior lights not working, cab light not working. Dealer said there is a module inside the cluster and the whole things needs to be replaced. Thats about $1000 at the dealer.
Update 12/2/10
I bought one used on ebay and sure enough all the lights came back on! I just plugged it in to test and am still driving with the original one in until the mileage is in sync with the ebay one, then I will make the swap. Watch Part II of this video to see how to take apart and put back together the interior of the truck for the complete installation of a new cluster.
