'01 T&C Electric Window Motor
 

My '01 driver's side power window intermittently won't go back up. The only way to get it to raise is to open and slam the door closed, sometimes a few times. The window will then raise and work well for awhile. My questions are these:

1. What is required to remove the door panel?
2. How difficult is it to replace the motor (access to the motor)?
3. Is there a Chrysler (or other) service manual that is helpful to get to the window motor?

I really won't know if the problem is motor vs. wiring until I get behind the door panel.

Thanks for the help!

That special tool listed you can get and Autozone unfortunately it will be made in China. It is no big deal it's just a stiff piece of metal shaded like a"Y" that you can slip down to knock off the clip. You can get these service manuals thru Chrysler Corp Service Publications, CIMS 424-81-55, 25999 Lawrence Ave., Center Line, MI 48015. Call them, ask operator to get number. If they don't have it there is a company that handles these books that refer u to.

Window Lift Motor Test. 1. Conect positive (+) lead from a test battery to either of the two motor terminals. 2. Connect negative (-) lead from test battery to remaing motor terminal. 3. The motor should now rotate in one direction to either move window up or dow. a. If window happends to already by in full UP position and motor is connected so as to rotate in UP direction no movement will be observed. b. Likewise, motor connected to DOWN direction rotation, no movement will be observed if window is already in full DOWN position. 4. Reverse battery leads leads (steps 1 & 2 above) and window should now move. If window does not move, remove motor. 5. If window moved completely up or down, motor should be reversed one more time (reverse leads from step 4) to complete a full window travel inspection.
