However on occasion the door will not close once its open.
Sienna sliding door wont open but tries to.
Soo i opened it.
The door opens fine using keyless door button interior and exterior door handles and overhead buttons.
Youtube is removing me from their partner program because my channels don t have enough subscribers so i m g.
So the sliding door on my sienna got stuck and would not open from inside nor outside.
Passenger door ended u not opening from the inside and outside so i decided to figure out what happened.
Here s a video of me demonstrating the problem.
This should work with 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008.
Toyota sienna vehicles with this problem.
This is a common problem on your vehicle and other years also you can try spraying a lubricate on the latch to see if it will free up also problems with the cables on the doors up to a couple grand or more to have repaired per door.
All of this is pointing to the motor inside the door that essentially pulls the handle for you when you remotely open the door.
The electric motor s circuit will become overloaded and this will trip the fuse and prevent the door from being closed entirely.
When your doors dont slide automatically when hitting the buttons there are a few troubleshooting options available for you.
The outside door handle goes dead and every other way of opening the door results in the door trying to open even further and then stops.
I wind up having to manually close the door.
This happens when the power sliding door isn t able to latch on properly due to something blocking it.
Migrated this video over from my other channel.
