I have a 2000 Silhouette Premiere (same basic platform as Chevy Venture/Pontiac Montana) that recently had problems with the automatic power door. The door got to a point where it would manually move very little. I removed the rear quarter panel trim and examined the cables and the actuator assembly. In the actuator assembly the cables were bound and the plastic sheathing was ripped off the cables. One cable was almost to a point where it was going to break. I was able to remove the cables from the actuator with some wiggling. Looks like I need two new push/pull cables for the door. Has anyone replaced the cables? Any tips for disassembling the actuator motor to install the cables?
Thanks
