This video will show you how to replace the driver s side sliding door motor and cable mechanism on a 2005 toyota sienna.
Open sienna sliding door.
I have a 2010 sienna and its sienna sliding doors seem to open very well with the indoor door open button.
Press the open button on the remote key fob to open the sliding doors.
Open the door with the remote a third time.
My method is cheap about 4 6 70 after tax and shipping in minnesota each do.
They were time consuming high risk and more expensive.
Wait 10 seconds then open the door with the remote again.
The other end of the handle pivots on a plastic rivet.
Use the small socket to push the three tabs of the rivet in and down simultaneously.
This happens when the latch motor fails which is fairly common in toyota siennas.
I feel that my car s symptoms are quite opposite of what s described.
This design covers 2004 to 2010 sie.
Once the third cycle completes the power door battery is reset.
I am having problems with opening the door when i try to open with the outside handle.
The only way you can get the door open is to pull the handle and then hold it for two or three seconds.
Luckily replacing just the latch motor is an easy and inexpensive solution.
Fix toyota sienna or any car power sliding door the fastest and cheapest way.
When your doors dont slide automatically when hitting the buttons there are a few troubleshooting options available for you.
Close the door and wait 10 seconds.
