2001 Dodge Caravan
The motor on the passanger side window has gone out, or at least as far as i can tell, the window can come down but will not go back up . Is it a difficult job to replace myself?

I replaced mind on a Dodge pickup. It's not hard to do. I priced the motor online at about 160.00, went to junk yard and got it for 75.00.
When you get the cover off the inside door panel, see if you can get the window up and out of your way. Not much hand room if the window is down.
I put a piece of wood under the window to hold it up while removing the motor.
You will have three bolts to take off, the wiring snaps apart at the motor connection. You can get a socket on the three bolts to remove them.
It's about a 300.00 dollar job at the dealer, go for it.

If the motor moves in one direction, it's not bad.............The change in direction is dictated by a change in the polarity of the current..........which is controlled by the switch
