Thank you so much!! That's it on my mother-in-law's 2005. I'm on my way to her basement to look for wires to splice in there. I tell you what man, my father-in-law died ten years ago and she really misses him and she needs people around to help with little things here and there but I live out of state. So you've helped out a sweet lady today, God bless you for your effort to document all of this.OK. Doors fixed. Below is my workup for anyone else having the problem. Mine was a wire problem.
First here is a picture of the track...
This is probably a temp fix as I forsee more breakage in the future.
Hope this helps some of you.
I had the same thing happen in my van I just pulled some of the fuses under the hood for the trunk and the two side doors laying the tracks vacuum and spray them with a little WD-40 or silicone and just use as hand doors although they are a little heavy and I have to use a prop sometimes to hold up the rear and use my key to open the trunkI would like the link to the other site. Both power doors on or 2001 T&C Limited have quit working totally. they are very hard to open as well.
The wiring harness with the drag link chain is Dorman 747-310 on the driver’s side and 747-311 on the passenger side. I’ve been disappointed by the longevity of so many Dorman parts I’m disenchanted with the brand in general, so i’m more likely to re-wire the thing myself from connector to connector using new contacts or connectors instead of splicing. The right wire to get has many fine strands rather than a few thick ones. The wrong wire is CCA (copper coated aluminum) from China.I had the same thing happen in my van I just pulled some of the fuses under the hood for the trunk and the two side doors laying the tracks vacuum and spray them with a little WD-40 or silicone and just use as hand doors although they are a little heavy and I have to use a prop sometimes to hold up the rear and use my key to open the trunk
