The driver side power door will open only a few inches and stops. We have to manually open it the rest of the way.

Caravan 3.8L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 124,500 miles

Remote door locks and power sliding doors quit working!! Running lights would flash like normal, but locks would not budge! Since the driver's door is the only one with a key lock, it becomes a pain to lock up the vehicle. Dealer said they wanted $90+ just to look at it and could not give me any items to check. I specifically asked about blown fuses or wiring issues.

I found similar problems through google.com on this web site and fortunately one of the suggest fixes has actually worked ... at least for now.

I have a problem with my passenger side sliding door. It does not open using either the overhead console switch or the door jamb switch most of the time. Occasionally it will work with both switches, but 99.9% of the time it won't. Does anyone else have this problem or a solution?
