Default Caravan driver's window motor

The motor will work slightly to try and raise the window, but it doesn't do anything in trying to get it to go down. I thought for sure the motor was more than likely the problem. Evereything else looks good, regulators and all. A friend of mine that is a mechanic, told me it might not be the motor. What else could it be? It's getting power to the motor and will go up but not down. Any help? I can replace it myself if that's all it is. I just want to make sure, before I go spend the money on one.

Thanks!!!

If you're getting 12vdc at the motor with the switch up and down change the motor. You could try lubing the window edge guides with a silicone lube first. In the long run you're better off changing the whole regulator assembly, motor and all.
