I am dead!!! My mom and Dads' Town & Country is old, a 1996, but my dad loves it. He keeps it looking new. He will never get rid of it. I am 20y/o and screwed up. I slammed the driver side door and when I tried to roll it up, the back came up. Not the rest. I took the door apart, and there are cables all undone, and I don't know what the hell to do. I don't have a lot of money or time. They will be back in three days. I called the dealer, they said $300.00. I'm toast. Can anyone save me from this death sentence?

the regulator is broken. the cable broke and came out. it happens all the time. it wasn't because you slammed the door, it was old age. the only thing you can do is replace the regulator. if you were smart enough to get the door panel off you should be able to replace the regulator. its pretty self explanatory. you may be able to get a regulator at a parts store, i'm not sure on this van. the one from the dealer won't be that much if you do it yourself. if you have them do it, its the regulator plus 1.5 hours labor.

Listen Dud, Sprinkles is right. You didn't break the regulator. I have replaced enough of those thing to fill a dumpster. They have plastic parts in them that just wear out. However they are expensive BUT I do not recommend you changing it by you're self. The new one can fly apart on you if you don't handle it just right. And it's A BEAR to get back together!

if your dad loves chrysler he knows they have this problem . i will bet its not the first one to be replaced on that car. it has probably been going for a while, they get old and bind up. call a local junkyard since cost is such a factor or call auto zone and get a price. but this should not be the problem you think its going to be call him and tell him now, that will give him time to cool off before he gets to you!!
