You can replace just the gasket but the solenoid pack is what leaks replaced about 50 of them and have never had just a gasket failure

My 2000 dodge caravan just went into its limp mode for the transmission. It is staying in second gear and will not shift higher. What could be the reason?

The transmissions available in your caravan are problematic for having a bad solenoid pack. Once the transmission is set in the LIMP IN mode, then you need to take it to a dealer to get the code reset from the transmission and to get it diagnosed properly. I'm sure there will be a code such as, "trans solenoid stuck in LR" which means " low range" if the transmission went into limp in mode, then that simply means it defaulted to second gear only. Which is telling you to have it looked at asap. I'm sure if you repalce the transmission solenoid pack and gasket and perform the re-learn procedure, then your problem will go away. good luck!

Leaking fluid

Only so many places these trans 41 TE can leak on the vans. Lines on top, speed sensors(input, output)one is below the lines the other is to right of the lines. Dipstick tube, trans solenoid gasket, Oil pan & extension gasket. Wipe off & clean area very well. Lines leaking, check clamps first before replacing. Speed sensor leaking replace o ring, Dipstick tube replace o ring, Trans solenoid replace gasket, Extension plate replace gasket If the pan is leaking you change the trans filter & put a gasket on the pan. The book says RTV on the pan, but FelPro make a gasket for the pan $6.99. Use a Chrysler trans filter!!!! O rings for sensors, tube around $3 each, trans solenoid gasket $3, extension gasket $10, Filter $11 + gasket $7 & 4qts trans fluid if doing the filter or extension gasket.

Shift solenoid problem on Dodge caravan/ chrysler voyager. is it easy to change the parts and also the speed sensors input and output

Here goes.Remove neg batt cable 10 mm, Remove elec connector to solenoid 6mm. Remove trans lines from trans(sometimes you can get away with not doing this) Remove speed sensor connector small screwdriver just to get the tab to release. Use 1inch scoket to remove spped sensor (just needs to be loose) spin out by hand. Remove 3 blolts 8mm holding the solenoid to trans. When puting new one in make sure the area is clean, clean, clean. Use new gasket. Dealer gasket trans solenoid 04659982 & replace o ring on speed sensor part#06501657ab. The bolts on solenoid snug them down but don't over tighten them. The speed sensor is 20lb torque. The right speed sensor part is 06501658ab this one is blue the left is black. Hope this helps.

A604 solenoid pack interchangability

If I remember right the 2000 solenoid pack is slightly different than the '96. I've only seen that happen myself once. I just called my local bone yard and got a solenoid pack from the same year of trans. and did it that way.
