Default Driver Side Power Windows

The driver side window on my 2000 Grand Caravan all of a sudden stopped working. I have never had a problem with this before. Is there fuse I can check?
Any ideas?
At least it is stuck in the up position!

My father-in-law has a 2001 Chrysler Voyager (basically the same as the Caravan). He had the same problem with the drivers side window not rolling down. I think he had to have the motor for the auto window replaced.

Why do people say if they can do it or not??? Any body mechanicly inclined can do it with the tools required.A first timer will break things and not know how to remove the regulator assembly from the holding.
U will need to get a regulator and motor assembly. Look at the part and ssee for yourself if u want to mess with it.

I had this problem on my 1999 Caravan. It was just the window motor. I had to take the door apart (remove the plastic interior) and pull the motor. As far as I can tell it was just a dead spot on the motor. Replacement Motor was around 80 bucks. Took a couple of hours to fix. Hardest part was getting the door off and on. The Haynes manual does a pretty good job of explaining the procedure, but as always with Hanynes, YMMV.
