Have a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT and the Drivers side window keeps getting stuck in the up position. I unbolt the motor and the tension gets released and it works for a few times. Every time I do this the motor is hot and I have tried lubricating the tracks. Do I need to replace the motor? .

The problem you describe sounds more like the track for the window. Lubing it will not accomplish much. Many just replace the tracks. The motor gets hot may be because it is getting high resistance from the tracks.

Also. You will need star pattern drivers to remove the window and motor from your door. If you have all the equipment it should only take you 1 hour.

SOURCE: i need to change the alternator on my 2000 dodge

I have to use a 15mm open/closed end wrench on the tensioner pulley. Use the closed end of the 15mm and pull toward you and use the end of a cresent wrench to use for additional torque. You can slip the belt over the fixed pulley (not the tensioner pulley). Give yourself more room by not using the hood bar and use instead a broomstick on the right side to prop the hood open. I recommend a goodyear gator belt too. Good Luck, you'll need it with a caravan. Its on the left side. its the easyest pully to see.

Drivers side quarter window on 1999 Dodge Grand Caravan opens when switch in closed position and closes when switch in open position.

The arm that opens it was attached incorrectly from the sound of it. Either that or at some point the had to repair the wiring harness and the crossed the wires.

Driver side window on dodge caravan stopped working in the down position, is there a way to manually get it up?

Try wiggling harness that goes from post to door by hinges, or open wire loom up and see if any damaged wires. If worst comes to worst, I'd remove interior panel and try jumper wires directly to motor connector at least to get window back up. You can use a 12 volt or 14 volt cordless battery. Reverse polarity, reverses direction of the motor. FYI.

Blower fan on my 2005 dodge caravan squeaks on low and high speed not all the time but on and off. is this a sign my blower motor is going out or is the fan just dirty.

I would have a repair shop, put an oscilloscope
as well as a stethoscope
on the motor, to tell you the answer

Nothing to do with dirt

Most likely they never use their scope for that,
but that is were we are at with todays cars

If you spend nine grand ,you may as well

2005 dodge caravan leaking on the driver side and passenger side floor. the rain water is dropping from corner of the roof.

The rear ac evaporator box is not draining very well,and it is blowing the condensation up threw the vents,most likely.The drain should be under the rear passengers side wheel well.

Check to see if the wire in door jam is stretched or broken. This may cause a break in power to window motor. Check the motor with power probe to see if motor is working.
