On my 1997 Grand Caravan I will occasionally lose my electronic instruments-speedometer, tach, temp gauge, fuel gauge, mileage display, etc. It always comes back sooner or later to normal. Im getting a code 66-no ccd from TCM. What would be the most common cause of this instrument failure? TCM, BCM, ?
Thank you for any help
I just had a similar problem with my 2001 T&C (although I did not check the codes). Engaging the turn signals or hazard lights would intermittently cause a power failure to the instrument cluster. I swapped related fuses, relays, light bulbs, etc., cleaned all contacts, took apart the multi-function switch and cleaned it, removed the instrument cluster and cleaned its contacts, etc. The problem went away for a day, and then the instrument cluster went out altogether. I took it to a dealership. They replaced the instrument cluster, after which there was power to the cluster but still flickered. They replaced the multi-function switch and BCM, only to find that the instrument cluster still flickered. Eventually they found a ground contact in the engine compartment that apparently was corroded. They cleaned it, and now the whole system functions as it should. (Still not convinced I needed the switch and BCM... They charged for those parts, but not labor for installing them.)
Good luck. Frustrating problem.

That loose connection they found was probably the orange wire being loose at the battery. was the battery recently replaced??
