See how easy it is to replace the power window and door lock switch on any 5th generation Dodge Grand Caravan. This will need to be replaced if the window or door lock buttons have stopped working which is a common problem with these minivans. Once the replacement part in in hand, the new one can be replaced in 5 minutes with 1 tool, saving a lot of time and money from taking it to the dealer.

Wow, I've got the exact same button broken on a 2014 Grand Caravan. Our garage can't take us until next week so I'm so happy I can fix this myself! Thank you!!
Glad it helped, thanks for watching! 🛠️
Thank you so much. The auto shop wanted $400 to fix this, but I fixed it myself for $20
That's awesome glad you were able to do it yourself and save some money! 🛠️
@@TheEclecticHandyman ..she owes u one my guy :)
That was an easy fix like you said!! Wow, I had no idea. Thank you for always explaining your steps very specifically! 👍🏼🤗
Yes just about as easy a repair as it gets on the car, thanks for watching AZ! 🛠️

Thanks! My fix was 1" of electrical tape to cover a frayed wire.
Glad it helped, thanks for watching! 🛠️
Thanks for the video. 2020 DGC SXT. Left Sliding Door, and window stopped working. Door lock still working. OBD Code Reads: U0201 Lost communication with left door module. Two 30 amp fuses OK. Any suggestions.. much appreciated..
Thank you
OMG maybe you can help me. I had to replace my window regulator on my 2019 caravan and when I got everything hooked back up the driver side pannel doesn't work. All the other window switches work, but the driver window switches and both lock switches on the drivers and passenger sides don't work.
I've seen this before and it happens when using a replacement switch assembly that 'appears' to have the same buttons and configuration, but it's actually not the same part. Dodge for some reason made like 45 versions of this same switch assembly across all their cars, so it's super important to get the exact same part number when replacing. If you did get the exact same part number and it's still having issues, there may be a wiring or electrical issue downstream.
This would definitely save a lot of money and also save time on not having to go to a garage.
I hope someone with this minivan, or even a car like it can follow the steps and save some money! Thanks for watching Rita! 🛠️
What I want to know is how to pop a back window button out and replace the passenger window button with it!
@@cmonbone Yeah that's a tough job because these switch components are all assembled plastic and not made to be disassembled and replace individual parts like buttons. Best bet to be most cost effective is to look for your same switch housing part number on eBay and buy a good used one at a fraction of the cost.
Well, I did it. I found a TH-cam video on how to pop the rear one out and put it in the front and it works.
Where did get the part from
Thank you
You can get a good deal if you just go to your local junkyard and get it from the exact same car
Yep great suggestion. Most the ones on eBay seem to just be online junkyards selling parts 🛠️
❤Very Helpful ❤
Most non working buttons are from a broken ground wire in the driver's door harness between the door hinge
The 2-3x I've had this happen (I've owned 3 of these vans), the wiring has remained intact it was the switch that failed. They are all plastic + electrical components and wear out over time (especially the driver's side).
What about an 08 dodge grand caravan? Is there a replacement for that?
Yes, use the old part and find the number to match or go online to find a replacement for your specific model. The 08' is an older generation so it will be a different part, but you can find it for your specific application.
Me too 10, 12 19
Yes such a great car/van! 🛠️
