1996 Dodge Caravan 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

One day while i was trying to roll the window up it made a loud roaring noise and started clicking and stopped moving and hasn't moved since. that was the driver's side window. A few days after that my passenger side stopped working and now the back windows wont close. the control panel on the door doesn't control anything. HELP

Hi:
The grinding sounds like the gears on the motor may have gone bad. As a result, the motor may have shorted causing a fuse to blow or damage to the switch. Check the fuse first and if it's good, you will have to remove the door panel to check the switch and the motor.
