Sienna Sliding Door Button Not Working

I am having problems with opening the door when i try to open with the outside handle.

Sienna sliding door button not working.

In my case it was not the child safety button but things improved with a good squirt of silicon spray into the mechanism. This happens when the power sliding door. Here s what i want you to do turn the main button for the power sliding switch off then place the van in park disconnect the battery for 5 minutes then reconnect it turn the switch to the on position then turn the power sliding door main switch on and wait for 10 seconds then press one of the buttons to open the passenger sliding door and wait until it opens if it does then once it. At first the door won t work properly.

Average failure mileage is 58 000 miles. The cable in the side door is prone to fraying and then breaking. Wait 3 to 5 minutes then reconnect the cable. Press the sliding door control button on the sienna s dashboard so that the red line on the button is illuminated.

The sliding door latch is not working see the picture of the latch unit. Then it stops working at all. Also my door latch is broke on the sliding door on the driver. When you press a button to automatically open the sliding door it makes noise attempting to open the door but fails.

When your sienna side door won t close one possibility is a circuit overload. Two years ago i bought a used 98 sienna and had that same exact problem last summer 07 with the sliding door buttons sticking on the inside. I have a 2010 sienna and its sienna sliding doors seem to open very well with the indoor door open button. In this situation the best thing to do is to replace the cable.

But if you pull the handle and hold it for a few seconds the door opens. I feel that my car s symptoms are quite opposite of what s described. The right sliding door push button switch will not work to open the door all other switches work fine remote overhead push button etc after the door is open the inside push button works fine to close the door or partially open or close it also the courtesy light at that door doesn t light and when testing for voltage at the plug none is there.
