Sienna sliding door stuck closed.

When your sienna side door won t close one possibility is a circuit overload. This happens when the power sliding door isn t able to latch on properly due to something blocking it. Even disconnecting battery and trying to pull up want move. Try pushing on the door from the outside near the rear of the van to fully close it.

You may then be able to get it open. The door is supposed to unlatch first before it triggers the motor to pull it open. Anyone have this problem and any idea how to fix it help. Most common problem is the motor of the latch fails.

If the door is loose it may not be fully closed. The electric motor s circuit will become overloaded and this will trip the fuse and prevent the door from being closed entirely. The no 1 problem is the lock release actuator goes bad and doesn t work anymore what the symptom will be of that going out is that the door will not open with the buttons but if you pull and hold the handle pulled the door will open. Sienna 6 cyl 85 000 miles the driver rear power sliding door is stuck in closed position and does not open either in automatic power mode or manually.

The door got stuck after the power cable was. Using power switch it goes up or down about 1 2 in. This is an issue you want to diagnose first because it s quite easy to do so. The sliding door latch is not working see the picture of the latch unit.

There are two very common problems with the power sliding door on your model sienna that we see everyday.
