To reset the Dodge Caravan limp mode, You'll bring Your car to a full stop. Move Your automatic transmission to park. Change the key on the ignition to off. Wait for 10 seconds. Then restart for the vehicle. Also known as 'limp home mode', limp mode is a security feature in cars that activates when the engine or transmission control unit picks up a fault. Once it detects a problem, limp mode will cause the less important parts of the car, such as air conditioning, to switch off, and the speed of the car will be reduced.Limp mode is specifically designed to limit further damage and allow You to get Your car to a service center. If possible, drive directly to a service center.

My 1999 had this problem. Take out the two sensors on top of the transmission under the battery tray. They have magnets in them and metal particles stick to the ends and block the signal. Just wipe them clean and it should fix the problem. If not one of them may be bad. I think it was a 1 inch socket to remove them and since they were high up on the transmission no fluid leaked out.
