Sienna sliding door stuck.

If you push the open button inside the car or on the fob you can hear the motor try to open but the door doesn t budge and the motor stops after a second. When your sienna side door won t close one possibility is a circuit overload. Latch motor failure sometimes the side door will struggle to open when you press the button to automatically open it. The automatic sliding passenger door on my 2005 toyota sienna won t open.

This happens when the power sliding door isn t able to latch on properly due to something blocking it. We can think of a few common reasons. The door is supposed to unlatch first before it triggers the motor to pull it open. Frayed cable the cable in the side door is prone to fraying and then breaking.

Last night i sprayed everything with silicone spray with no luck. At first the door won t work properly. The electric motor s circuit will become overloaded and this will trip the fuse and prevent the door from being closed entirely. We have an 05 sienna and like everyone every winter the side sliding doors freeze.
