#30 of 31 Hard Sliding Power Side Door by handson34 Oct 03, 2009 (1:56 pm)
I have a 2002 Grand Caravan Sport,and the power sliding on the right side is hard to open by hand,it works fine using the power. What I need to know is if there is a clutch in the motor to let it be opened by hand,and if so can it be fixed without replacing the motor. Replies to this message: shipo (Oct 03, 2009 2:40 pm)

Replying to: handson34 (Oct 03, 2009 1:56 pm) A fairly common problem... The disengagement clutch between the track gearing and the motor has failed. Unfortunately the motor and the clutch assembly are manufactured as a single unit and that is how they're sold. I bought mine from www.dodgeparts.com a couple of years ago for a hundred and change (I don't remember exactly). The installation is a two-beer job with only a couple of skinned knuckles.
