What would cause the rpm gauge on a Ford Windstar 2000 to stop working properly? It registers to about 1 rpm.

SOURCE: 1998 Ford Windstar Transmission to 2000 Ford Windstar

while it is possible to perform that swap, the newer 2000+ transmissions will have updated internals and such.

so will it work............. yes.

is it optimal.................no.

SOURCE: gas gauge not working right for 2000 silverado

the only thing that will cause this symptom is the fuel tank sending unit.

SOURCE: speedometer, rpm gauges not working

sounds like a fuse

Could be a ciggerette lighter fuse, usually cause this when it blows.

there should be a relay switch on the passanger side in the floor board up to the firewall or look in the manual for it.... if your car wont start cause its starvin for gas it could be the fix...find the switch or button and press it it restarts your fuel sending unit
