Inexpensive replacement!

Right sliding door latch actuator for Dodge Caravan was an exact replacement. Chrysler uses a very poor design for this drive. The part works fine but it was flatbread to replace it. The price was good. The presence of the AVP minivan without opening windows on the sliding doors somewhat facilitated the replacement work. The fact that the original drive failed in the unlocked position also made replacement easier. This is a very error prone part. The locking rod is very long and thin. I reassembled the door 3 times before I was able to fix the manual door lock stem interference. This job took about 3.5 hours if I had the right tools on hand. There are several videos on YouTube for sharing. It is very expensive to do this work at the dealership. We'll see how long the replacement lasts.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Big and bulky
