Default Power door lock question

Hello everyone, I have a 1996 Dodge Grand Caravan, the passenger side door the power door lock acuator makes the noise but the **** doesn't go up and down nor is it locking or unlocking. Can it be taken apart and fixed? Or do you think replaced? Also are there any other dodge vehicles that use the same door locking device that could be subsituded? It seems to be a complete unit with the motor and locking pin. Thank-you for any help, Linc

Thank-you, There are some on ebay for rams, dakota's, ect, SO I was wondering if any of those would work. None for the caravans right now, guess I'll have to wait, or check the junk yard. Thanks again, Linc

Sliding door actuators are only on T/C and caravans, dakota or rams will not work.
