That van has 3 on it 1 is Transmission range sensor

anouther is the Output side

and the last is the Input side

whitch one did you change also check voltage at the connections the one you need to change is The output speed sensor on the transmission is also the vehicle speed sensor. The output sensor is the two wire sensor on the front of the trans all the way to the driver side

Press and hold the trip reset button, on the odometer, until you get a code about 10-30 secs. Then release. Your gauges and lights should light up and gauges move around once it does its thing every thing should be back to normal.
