The body control module has failed.

SOURCE: 2000 buick lesabre no heat.

The heat is generated by a heater/small radiator in the dash. That small radiator uses hot coolant from the engine. The temperature is adjusted by varying the amount of hot water flowing thru it with a valve. That valve is commanded by a lever to which a cable coming from the temperature button is fixed - this mechanism no longer works causing the valve to remain shut so you end up with no heat.
You must access the back of the rear console to inspect and replace the failed part: the button, the cable, the lever or the valve itself. Of course you must do that with the engine cold.
The entire procedure is explained in detail - with pictures and diagrams - in this repair manual

SOURCE: odometer, tachometer, speedometer, and gas gauge suddenly stopped working.

Sounds like the body control module has gone bad. It has a relay that caries considerable current to all of these accesories and wears out.
It can also be a solder joint on the circuit board where this relay mounts.
Hope this helps, Robert

I can't believe no one suggested perhaps removing the battery connections and cleaning them and reinstalling. Your battery or charging system may still have issues, but sometimes this with a good jump connection will get you going again.

When you try and start your truck without a jump, what are the battery voltage shown on the gauge, there are times when the battery are just in too bad of a shape that even a jump wont help. Without the jumper cables monitor voltage indicator, it should not fall below 10 volts.

Good luck

Make sure to check the engine compartment fuses and the inside fusebox, if all the fuses look good then try to unhook the battery and then connect it back on and start the van and see if this helps. the radio is it asking for a code, if this radio has antitheft then you will need to install the code to make it work, look at manual and it will tell you how to do this. the code is entered using the preset staition buttons, there should be a card in the glovebox with the radio code if it has antitheft. if you find no bad fuses then you may have short out the cluster jumping it, but most of the time it just needs a fuse or reseting by removing neg battery terminal for about 2min, good day let me know the outcome.

I have a 2000 Grand Caravan that will ONLY start with a JUMP ........ the starter clicks and WILL start the VAN the battery is GOOD and new it was checked 2 times by 2 different places ..... the...

it sounds like you may have a bad starter solenoid and the extra voltage from the jumper vehicle is enough to complete the circuit through the solenoid to allow the starter to turn over.sometimes the solenoid contacts get very dirty and can`t complete the circuit on its own without a jump.i think these have a bosch starter system on them and you can replace the contacts only in the solenoid.

no codes found because your checking the PCM,
your problem is you need codes from the TCM,the computer for the transmission,since you replaced the speed sensor the other two things that affect a speedometer and transmission are the input and output sensors,they both screw in the transmission.
