Car Forum / Dodge / Dodge Cars / May 2006Intermittant problem with power sliding door on '01 Grand Caravan
I'm having trouble with the power sliding door on our '01 Grand Caravan. It always closes ok, but won't always open. Hitting the "open" button, either on the console, the doorjamb, or the remote results in the door kicking out as if it's going to open, and I can hear the motor kick in, but then the motor stops without moving the door. It seems to do this more frequently when it's cold out (Chicago winter), or when the van has been sitting overnight. Google turned up this newsgroup, but I haven't yet found a previous message mentioning a problem like this. Suggestions appreciated. > I'm having trouble with the power sliding door on our '01 Grand > Caravan. It always closes ok, but won't always open.

If the door just pops without even sliding the latch is normally bad. if the door pops open and moves a few inches what the problem normally is......the electrical tape (track) in the bottom of the door has a broken wire.

Could it just be that it needs to be cleaned and greased? Or could the spring that pops it out be getting weak? > > If the door just pops without even sliding the latch is normally bad. > > Hi, thanks for the followup.

I don't have the original post to follow up on. You must have posted long ago and are now just replying back. There are no adjustments on the sliding door latch for a power door opening problem Glenn Beasley Chrysler Tech |
