My dodge stratus's timing belt went out and I got it replaced now my speedometer don't work and also the car won't shift out of first the car sat for almost a year and now it starts and runs but don't shift gears. I checked the tranny fluid and that is fine and i'm not sure why the speedometer and the tranny don't switch from first. I have park, reverse, and only the first gear in drive on an automatic transmission

Sounds like a bad speed sensor. I recommend replacing both. The pair should run around 80$ in parts, and an hr of your time replacing. They are located on the driverside of the transmission, usually easier to acess from under the car.
