98 Venture extended. Passenger side rearmost wing window (power) won't close. Is there a separate motor for each side? What I would like to do is manually close it then disconnect wiring to it so it won't be a concern any more. Just spent $700.00 to have A/C fixed:screwy: ....no need for open windows now! Road trip coming up this weekend, hoping to get window "fixed" by then. Any ideas or experience?
Thanks!

Funny that you mentioned the stuck window. I went out to my van last night to find that the left side was open and the right side was closed.

I have had this happen in the past. So far I have been able to use the control button to open & close again (same thing last night). Possibly a loose or dirty connection - not sure.

Yes - there are separate motors for each side. If you want to see how the system works, take a look at the following page where I "upgraded" my van to Power Rear Windows (http://www.my-chevy-venture.com/power-rear-quarter-vent-window-motors.html).

Take Care,

I was always able to "unstick" mine by having someone hold the switch down while I firmly (but NOT excessively) and repeatedly tapped on the window with an open palm (usually around 6 or 7 gentle smacks would do it). It would work fine after that for months until it would happen again and I'd repeat this "repair procedure".

Thanks AJT1961. That did it....almost. The motor ran for about a second before the cam caught and actually started closing the window:banghead: , so it's 95% closed. Just a little "wobble" at the bottom corner but it seems to air and water tight.
Thanks for your responses, this site is a great resource, I hope that some time I can help somebody!
GergA, thanks for the pics. I think I'll disconnect the motor and not have to deal with it anymore.
Thanks again!
