#4149 of 4276 Romoving 2 cross bars on luggage rack-2000 Plymouth Voyager. by fantascp Aug 10, 2006 (9:40 am)
Hi:   My Son is going on vacation- He has a 2000 Plymouth Voyager Van- Can you remove the cross-bars on the luggage rack so we can use a Sears-X-cargo luggage container instead?   The 2 sliding cross bars are not far enough apart to allow the X-cargo to sit flush on the roof-   Thanks for any help.

#4153 of 4276 Stiff Power Door... by shipo Aug 12, 2006 (9:15 pm)
I did a search on this and didn't find any hits. Hmmm, could ours be the first? Not likely.   So, over the last week Mrs. Shipo has been complaining that the left side power sliding door of our 2003 DGC ES has gotten very stiff when operated manually. I tried it and sure enough, it operates perfectly normal in power mode, however, opening and shutting it in manual mode is rather difficult taking a fair amount of arm strength to slide the door along the track. Having never taken the mechanism apart my first inclination is to suspect a problem with the "Star Wheel" disengaging from the motor. Does this device have some sort of a clutch or does the motor free-wheel rotate in manual mode?   Any of y'all ever had this problem before?   Best Regards, Shipo Replies to this message: herbbeasley (Aug 19, 2006 11:04 am)
#4154 of 4276 t&c left power door trouble by cannis Aug 13, 2006 (5:03 pm)
Posting here for first time with other problems...but, have noticed recently that my 2001 t&c left power slider is also stiff when used manually...nothing like the old doors gone bad, but definitely made me wonder. No trouble with power locking (to complete close) and like Mrs. Shipo's, works fine in power mode...might help to know that hers is not isolated case...................MAIN TROUBLE: ... windshield replaced, next day outside thermometer reads all over the place, including way below zero...was hot day here ... trip to dealer for service, replaced sensor in front bumper ("was broken...hole in it") though I never banged the bumper...still not working when I drove it away, next trip and next trip to service and module replaced, then "burned out with short in wiring" so replaced again, then wiring "replaced" to bypass short...drove away, STILL not working...causes heat to come on, then air, then heat, depending on "outside temp" to deal with inside thermostat setting (i.e. 72F)...so, picked up Thursday eve, not working, driving it because I have to, and temp reading slightly less eratic (weather been cooler here), and tonight, missed family reunion due to coolant temp registering overheat, though engine not very warm, plenty of coolant...oh, passenger side power window has not worked properly for weeks...also, seat heaters replaced on recall notice few days before windshield replaced by local glass company, compliments of service center due to broken on their lot when I bought it (used). Extended warranty probably expired by now...70,000 miles, I think...though unsure if this electrical problem covered, anyway.    Any ideas? C-

Replying to: crupi325 (Aug 14, 2006 12:08 pm) I had my evaporator replaced, and they mechanic had to pull the dash. It's basically behind the dash along the firewall...

Replying to: crupi325 (Aug 14, 2006 12:08 pm) There is a very good possibility that you have two evaporators in your van, one in the dash and one behind the right rear wheel.   Best Regards, Shipo

Replying to: rob2003176 (Jul 16, 2006 5:10 pm) I had yhe same problem in my 96 grand caravan my bet is if you turn off the a/c and defroster it will go away. if it does the compressor is ready to sieze up. My fuel pump also went. not an easy fix it is in the fuel tank. about 400.00 for fuel module and 225.00 labor at the dealer. good luck
