2000 Caravan. 3.0 litre. Driver's side power window goes down, but will not go up consistently. After some delay, it will eventually go up or I will have to manually push it up. Any solutions?

cran i had the same problem on my 99. i had to pull the switch and clean the contacts. once i did that they seem to be working fine :).

Gulp. What do mean by "pulling the switch"? How do you get at it?

Pulling the switch means you have to remove the trim panel on the driver's door. First remove all the screws (even the hidden ones), then you can use a screwdriver under the trim panel to pop it off the retainers. Go slowly and if it sticks, look for a screw holding it in place. Once the panel is off, you can unhook the connector to the power door switch and take it apart for cleaning.

rick nailed it :), just be very careful when removing the door trim panel. once its off the cleaning is very very easy. just use a cotton swab to clean the connections once you get to them.

if that doesn't work (Didn't for me) you will need a new motor w/regulator

pretty easy to replace and cost about 40 bucks
