Speedometer stopped working, fule gauge went to Empty (had just filled the tank 11 miles before) Odometer/trip counter milage display is blank though the word trip still shows. Wipers stopped working, AC though lights come on the switch does not function, Head lights are on no matter what the switch position. When the engine is shut off and key in accessory postion, the trip milage shows though it has not changed. Radio works at all times.

Red spanner warning light

Brake Light. Make sure you are not driving with hand brake on. Check brake-fluid level. Top off brake fluid if low and make appointment to check brakes. Driving with brake light can be dangerous; deal with this soon. Call tow truck or drive carefully and slowly to shop.
ABS (antilock brake system) Light. Indicates either low brake-fluid level, stuck brake caliper or faulty ABS. Check brake fluid and make appointment to get brakes checked. Call tow truck or drive carefully and slowly to shop.
Oil Light. Either engine is very low on oil or there is no oil pressure. Pull over and turn off engine immediately. Check oil level and add oil if low. Turn engine back on to see if light has gone off. If oil light is still on, bad oil pump (no oil pressure) is likely. Call tow truck.
Check Engine Light. Car's computer senses engine problem. Difference in performance may not be noticeable, but make appointment to have car diagnosed. This usually cost around $65-$75 to do. OK to drive. If problem is serious, computer may switch to limp-home (low-power) mode and you won't have option of waiting to bring car into shop.
Air Bag Light. Get air bags checked. Problem could prevent them from activating in accident. OK to drive, but not safe in accident.
Battery Charge Light. Alternator is not charging. OK to drive, but turn off any unneeded electrical devices (radio, heater, defroster) and avoid starting engine more than necessary. Bring car into shop soon to avoid getting stranded. When alternator is not charging, battery loses charge and car stops working.
Emissions Lights (O2 sensor, EGR, check emissions). Depending on car model, these lights may indicate problem with emissions sensor or may light up at certain mileage, usually 60,000 miles (100,000 km). Get sensors checked. OK to drive. If problem exists, car might get poor gas mileage.

I have a 95 town and country the gauges are not reading correctly the oil pressure reads really high when driving for about 10 minutes then levels out I just had an oil change my fuel gauge will sometimes...

If the check engine light is not on, stay away from sensors for now. First when is the last time you have had a tune up? PLugs , wires, air and fuel filter. Stalling at a stop can be from the air filter, fuel filter (clogging up), It can also be from the catalytic conveter, these also clog up. It can be from vacuum leaks, this usually has a rough idle also. It wouldn't hurt to check for codes, intermittant codes don't always pop the light on. On some vehicles the o2 sensors can cause a rough idle and stall at stops, ut they usually set a code/ light.

I have a 1999 town & country and the oil light keeps coming on and the oil was just changed

either the level is low (check it) or they knocked off the wire to the sender unit. Take it back to whomever changed it to check the problem, but DO NOT DRIVE IT if it is low on oil.

Oil pressure warning light comes on when slowing to a stop. Goes off when you accelerate.

either your eng. oil pump is failing or just so low on oil that the pick up tube cant pick any oil up, check eng oil level first, if level is ok....then your oil pump is definitely failing
