2002 chevy venture11/29/2023 ![]() This van is the roomiest vehicle I have ever driven! Interior quality is very good much better than the Malibus of the era the seats hold their form very well and are extremely comfortable on longer journeys. Overall build quality is pretty solid, but if you've seen the crash tests on these vans, you'll know not to trust it TOO much. I've never owned a minivan before, so I wasn't really sure what to expect, and wasn't even sure that I would like it, but after delivering pizzas and driving a total of 3,000 miles in just one month of ownership of this van, I think I'm going to keep it for a LONG time. I found my Venture on Craigslist for $450, and after doing the aforementioned procedure, it's been one of the best vehicles I've ever owned (and the best deal by far). If you follow those steps, you'll never have to worry about it again! General Comments: After about five minutes the engine started to build pressure, the overheating stopped, and I haven't had a single problem with it in the 3,000 miles I've driven it since then. Which can sometimes actually be a good thing: I bought my Venture with 116,000 miles for $450 because it had that problem (pouring antifreeze from the rear-passenger side of the engine), and instead of paying $1500 to have it fixed, I just drained the Dex-cool (orange) coolant, replaced it with regular antifreeze, and put Bars Leaks Liquid Copper stop leak straight in the radiator. These vans also have the typical problem with the intake manifold gaskets, just like all other GM V6s of the early 2000s. Both are extremely common with Ventures, and are actually not all that hard to replace I will be replacing them shortly. Pull the old one out and stick the new one into the slot on the fuse box.Rear wiper doesn't work (seized motor), and fan blower resistor only works at speeds 4+. Changing the relays simply involves accessing the fuse box and locating the right relay in it. You have to take off the inside door panel and vapor barrier to expose the parts so you can work on them. Working on the parts inside of the door is a little more complicated. Put the connections on the new switch and push it back onto the armrest. You pop the switch up off of the armrest and disconnect the electrical connections on it. How hard is it to change parts in a Chevrolet?Ĭhanging the switches is relatively easy. When the tracks move further apart, the window lowers down. The window sits in brackets at the top part of the frame and when the racks move closer together, the window rises. The framework is made up of two tracks of the same length that are riveted together to form an “X". The regulator is the name for the framework in the door. The shaft will move clockwise to raise the frame and counterclockwise to lower it depending on whether you press the “upâ€_x009d_ or “downâ€_x009d_ button on the switch. The motor has a shaft on it that is connected to the framework in the door frame. How does the motor work in a Chevrolet Venture? The little switches opening increase the amount of energy going through the relay to the motor so it can raise and lower a window. Little switches open up in the relay when the device is activated. The relay is located in the fuse box and it is connected to the switch and the battery. A relay is used to stop this from happening. Too much power going to a switch will overwhelm it and cause a burnout. The switches are a little delicate and don’t need a lot of power to work. Why do the Chevrolet windows need a relay?Ī motor needs more power than the window switch alone can provide to operate. The motor will go forward or backward to open or close the window, depending on how you press down on the switch. The switch sends the energy to a relay where it is then transferred to the window motor inside the door. When the switch is pressed, electricity flows through the fuse to the switch. The switch is connected to the battery via a fuse in the fuse box. How do the switches work in a Chevrolet Venture? There is also an individual switch located on each passenger door that controls the window for that door. All the windows can be controlled by the master switch. There is the master switch, which is located on the inside of the driver’s side door on the armrest. There are typically four sets of switches for the windows on a Chevrolet Venture. How many window switches does a Chevy Venture have? Whether you need a window motor or window regulator, OEM or aftermarket, its important to find auto parts that are compatible with your auto. Standard windows use switches, relays, motors, and a framework to open and close the windows. The Chevrolet Venture uses standard power windows. ![]() Window Motors and Parts for Chevrolet Venture ![]()
