Honda Odyssey Power Sliding Door fix - CHEAP
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ส.ค. 2024
- Showing how I repaired a non-working power sliding door on a 2005 Honda Odyssey. This repair would normally cost several hundred dollars if you purchased the OEM parts and performed the repair yourself. If you paid a shop to do it, it would probably cost close to $1000 or more (I know from experience). Save some money and do the repair yourself.

Tools needed:
Small flat screwdriver
10mm socket + ratchet
Needle nose pliers
Razor knife
Blunt object to pry with (slim block of wood)
Phillips screwdriver (needed to disassemble the latch)
Soldering iron amzn.to/2wnzEQ5
Wire strippers

Great video! I saw the odyssey thread, but your video made a couple points clear about the tin foil testing for code and how to test the microswitch to make sure it was what failed. Saved me a ton of time and money, thanks!
Larry Mecham great!! Glad I could help. Thanks for watching.
@@DustinRogersinMO sorry I wrote a few on the public comments.
Would your door open or close at all automatically ?
And just wouldn't suck shut at the end of closing cycle. I'm almost certain its to do with doors ,I cant imagine both door motors, Hinges , latch switch assemblies go bad on both doors
dunngee I replied to your other comments. See those.
@@DustinRogersinMO can you tell me a part number for that cover by driver's left foot which covers hood handle and fuse box (you removed that ) I lost mine ,thanks
Grucha Killa not sure on a part number but it’s called a kick panel. Should be able to find one by searching for that.
This video is awesome. But before doing ANY of this - try the following first.
Click the power door switch to off (cover the red dot). Open the door MANUALLY. It'll be stiff, but you can do it. Close the door MANUALLY. Do this a couple times. Switch door back on (so you can see the red dot). Try operating the door normally (electrically) now.
BINGO! Worked for me! It's been about three weeks now...
Wow, just tried this and it worked for me. Hopefully it will last for awhile. This door stopped working after the battery went dead. I hope it was just a “reset” that was needed.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Does the car running doing this?
Your the man bro. I love finding people on TH-cam that take the time to really go through each arduous step explaining things, saving us time and money from trying to figure things out on our own. For real, my hats off to the people that have saved me 100s of hours to do other things in my life. For instance, in just a few minutes I can see exactly what I need to do to fix my two jenky doors on this Odyssey instead of me out there with a hammer and chisel and probably eventually a sledge just to get the bottom of it. THANK YOU
brian matheney glad I could help. Thanks for watching.
THanks so much. Have 'repaired' both our sliding doors, about 8 months apart. They both would close, and then relax and let go, allowing a lot of road noise in.
All i needed to do was lube all the mechanisms. First door took me about 3 hours, the second about 1.5 hours. Zero cost.
Can't believe how many odysseys this vintage out there you see with this problem.
My I can’t fix my I need help
Can you be a little more specific about which parts you lubricated?
@@ashprid84 Everything! Anything that looks like it is mechanical and is supposed to move, associated with the latch. Sorry, I can't really recall after all this time, but it should be common sense, that's all i can add. Just make sure it is a good quality lube. Some recommend silicone grease spray.
@@ivanchicken2909 thank you for your reply! So I had my tire pro check it out and he said it appears the door is coming off the track. I was thinking of trying the lube. The other one is starting to act up 🥲
Just did this to my van, works like a champ! You sir, are a scholar and a gentleman!
Thanks for sharing the video and explaining how this works from an engineering standpoint. I agree with you that the local shop will throw a bunch of parts on it and will not know exactly what’s causing the issue. 17yo minivan starting to show its age. I just replace door lock actuator on our 2008 CRV so I know how difficult it is trying to remove and install that while working around that window track. It’s a pain. Thanks again for sharing this video. I do have a soldering iron and know how to fix this. 25 years Engineering Technician experience will come in handy here except old eyes slowing me down a bit. 😂
Just did your repair a week ago on an '05. Just like you found, no continuity on the switch. Bought 10 switches on ebay for a few bucks. Door has been working now for about 2 dozen opens & closes. While I had the unit out, I went ahead & lubed everything that moved or rotated; used Fluidfilm. Thanks so much for posting this. It's still helping folks some 3 years after!
jj parody great. Glad you got it fixed and saved some money. Thanks for watching.
@@DustinRogersinMO Again thanks for the video. Mine quit working again after a little less than a year. I pulled the unit out again & replaced the "cheap" switch (even though it continuity-tested ok) with a Honda OEM. Still to early to tell if it will work long term. Is yours still working? Thanks.
@@jjparody8257 we traded our van in for something different a couple years ago. It was working up to the time of trade in though.
Thanks a million Dustin. Your fix was spot on about the little blue switch being bad. We bought 10 of them on Amazon for $7. One thing we would like to add is how to do a reset when everything's done. We got ours put back together, and the door was getting absolutely no power. So we took out fuse #7 and replaced it after a few minutes. Then we turned the dash switch for the power doors OFF, then opened the door-in-question ALL the way, then turned the dash switch back ON, then went over to the door and activated it by lifting the handle, as if to close. And, viola!, it DID close -- and has been working flawlessly ever since. We can't thank you enough for saving us the $1200 the stealership wanted (and which we were never going to pay). By the way, we also cleaned the rear latch really well, like many threads suggest. Good luck all you Ody Owners!
Jules Shepard great! I’m glad you saved some money and fixed it yourself. Thanks for the note on the reset after the repair. I did the reset by clearing the codes prior to removing the latch assembly. Pulling the #7 fuse is the method of clearing the codes without getting into the diagnostic mode via the instrument cluster/trip reset button. Thanks for watching.
I have adult deficit disorder. This video is at perfect speed!!! 😂. Thank you.
I just completed this fix. It worked like a champ. I did it on my other door last year and it didn’t work. I thought I might have done something wrong. After taking this side apart the other was indeed froze up. I had to buy a new replacement. This fix cost my $8. Thanks for the video.
Outstanding Video! Thanks for posting for others to view and learn. From the error code determination, to the door panel removal, to the switch replacement, this was exactly what I needed to repair my non-working power sliding door (2006 Odyssey). Big time $$ savings. Thanks again!
Nick Witte great. I’m glad I could help. Thanks for watching.
BRILLIANT!!!!
My symptom was that it would close, crank tight, sit for 3 or 4 seconds then uncrank a little such that the door would crack open. I was able to switch the door to 'manual' (the slide switch above the door switches on the dash). Open and close the door manually a few times from the outside. Switch back on and now it 's working again. for now, anyway. But I will bookmark this EXCELLENT video in case I need it in the future.

Just finished replacing the entire rear latch assembly on my 2007 Odyssey. Just want to say thank you for the informative video saved me a ton of time of money! Even buying the new part for $250 and a few hours of my time was worth it
This video is great! I love the speed. It only took me about an hour to make the repair and my door has been working perfectly for months now.
A few minor tips:
You will also need a center punch (or thick nail) and a hammer to start the drill a hole.
You will need a drill bit. I don’t remember the size.
At Ace Hardware look in the stainless-steel sections for screws that small.
Nice video 👍 Our 06 Ody keeps draining our new battery within couple of days. Pulled the #7 fuse and amp reading went from .32 to 02 ma. The wife previously mentioned that there was always an audible constants beep once the car was put into reverse or drive. Turned out to be the door alarm warning that indicated the sliding door were open and no warning in the instrument panel. I think this micro switch might be our culprit. For now I have the fuse removed, but, we lost our interior lights when doors are open, remote keyless entry, and our security. Told the wife we’ll have to deal with it until I can perform this task. Wish me luck...Once again thanks!
Soy Eldiego I’m having the same issues with my ody, have you fixed yours?
Would like to know whether you fixed yours...
Great work, Dustin. I've been a Honda dealer tech since 2002, and I am impressed with your handy ability to get the job done. I have the same problem (B2038) tonight on the left side of my 2005 EX-L. I diagnosed it down to that switch and your video popped up when I searched the part number on the original switch (Matushita ABJ39242). Since the worst case scenario was $250 for a new latch, I said what the hell, and opened up the microswitch. I found a lot of powdery corrosion on the contacts inside, and packed full of grime. Gonna clean them up tonight and see if I can revive the switch.
Did you revive the switch?
Yeah lets us now lol
@@rudyshoplopez7366 Jerry gave me a hint of a probability of reviving the switch. I opened the switch and noticed a bunch of black oily dirt which caused back contact. The metal parts inside of switch is stainless steel and should work if it is clean. I cleaned it very well, and put the cover back. I also used a little silicone to seal the gap on the below the cover to prevent future dirt from getting in. Reinstalled everything back. Now the door works perfectly.
Thanks for this video, Dustin. Just completed the switch replacement in the passenger side sliding door.... AND IT WORKS!! Maybe go back to your vid and put a card in when you call out the bolts to remove. They are 10 mm. I only now saw that you mention this in the text below your video.
Really enjoyed your video! I found that the microswitch on the latch on both of my doors wasn't engaging. I was able to clean the spring that forces the metal against the actuator and actually bent the arm on the switch just a tiny bit. For now, both doors are working fully!
Zachary Walker great. Hopefully it stays working for a long time.
As time consuming as it was to get to the switch, I think I would replace it instead of hoping bending the arm is all I needed. Good luck! Oh, I see you posted 2 years ago -- is the door still working as it should?
You're a genius! Thank you for the video. Kind of entertaining to watch. Dealer cost $1900 to replace the motor, cable broke for 2014 odyssey. User error I guess. Parts is about $400. So labor cost drives it up. We're stuck with the dealer, I'm not a mechanic. Just to get an idea what is in the door panel.
AWESOME video first of all! this has probably been the most helpful/informative and well put together video that I have used that has actually had the content that I needed to accomplish something important my daily life. My mother has an 2009 Honda Odyssey that she bought second hand andthe passenger slider as not operating correctly. You can clearly tell by looking at the beige headliner that this has been a problem for some time. The headliner had signs of getting wet from the door not sealing al the way shut because whoever did close it far enough. Si i did all the steps to reset the door and it just starts working!!! The look on my moms face was priceless! She is so happy with me now man and its thanks to you brother! Keep the great videos man! You are much appreciated right now!!
Glad I could help. Thanks for watching
Dustin..great video....saved me a lot of money by replacing the switch..wife is very happy door is working again..great job thank you...
Mann well done! Thanks for showing this so in depth. Im excited to go home and test the code on mine. Its throwing the light every 2-3 fines its opened. My wife has been pulling the fuse to reset it constantly. This repair will gain me some serious brownie points lol
You should seriously start a GoFundMe page or something. You're a hero in the Honda community. I'm working on the same repair to my 2009 Ody, and I've seen dozens of people reference this video.
😆 awesome. I’m just glad that people find it useful and can get it repaired without spending tons of money.
Thank you for this! I couldn’t figure out what circuit it was on and you solved my problem! Quicker and easier than I thought it might be!

Great video, Dustin. This is exactly what I was experiencing, so I watched the video a couple of times, ordered a bag of switches from Amazon for less than $10, and fixed the door on a Sunday afternoon. It's like I had done it before because I knew what to expect.
Julian Giggs glad you got it fixed. Thanks for watching.
Did you end up taking out the door or just Change the fuses
Great teaching and results, it would seem that for $1000 the "professionals" could at least resolve the problem but sadly the public is poorly served by either unscrupulous or incompetent dealers or other service garages. Thanks again for sharing this info.
Just did this on a van and it works great....THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!! Also loved the links to parts.... saved me time and money.
Glad you got it fixed. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the video! Watched the first ~1 minute and your suggestion to just pull the fuse and put it back in fixed my non-functioning right hand side Odyssey sliding door. Cost = $0. Time = 2 minutes (1 minute of video, 1 minute to implement fix). Can't beat that!
Same just now!!!
Very grateful for this, BUT some caveats!
I got the b2088 code and subsequently installed the original recommended switch. After the repair, my right door worked intermittently and in different fashion (when closing it took longer to do the last pull in bit), and my left door stopped working, altogether. I was not happy.
Resolution: b2088 code was still showing, hence switch was still problem. It needed the arm to be bent out so it was more easily activated. Left door issue was the typical occurrence of where it needed to be reset: set dash sliding door switch to manual and then back to electronic, and press both door close buttons, or whatever the procedure is.
So, I would highly recommend you get the direct replacement switch from Digikey, if you have the time. I didn't and needed to fix the issue quickly. Thank you, thank you!
You're a saint. I have both codes. I'll be ordering switches and do both doors as soon as they come in
Thanks. I hope your repair went well.
Brilliant, comprehensive, the best that can be expected from a DYI novice. I will start the trouble shooting now that you got me over the (not knowing what to look for) hump…
This happened to my fathers van, saving him a $1,000 would be terrific! Thank you for this video.
Quoc Wong good luck with the repair. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for replying Dustin! It’s rare that folks do that. I definitely appreciate you reaching out. I should be doing it next week for dad.
Exactly what was wrong with my door. Saved me tons of money. Thanks.
Awesome video you pinpointed my problem. Went to the junkyard found the same body style picked up a couple sensors from the same door. 3 to 4 hours labor working well thanks!!!
thank you so much for this video. this was by far the most informative, the easiest to understand repair video to watch. Also the amount of money you saved me i cant thank you enough. Im having the same exact problem with my 2005 honda. once again thanks
I’m glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. You saved me time, money and frustration. This is exactly what was wrong with our door. Now it works again 😊
Dustin, thanks so much for this! My 2012 just started the infernal beeping, and Google brought me to the Odyssey forum, which brought me to search TSB 16-074 - Power Sliding Door Beeper Sounds While Driving, which brought me to you! But dayum, it's now October 29, so I have to clear my garage first to get the van in to check it out further.
Here's hoping this is the problem because what should be a 3 hour job is gonna be an 8 hour job ...
Patti Maska good luck with your repair and the garage cleaning. If your garage is anything like mine, you’ll be lucky to have it done before spring. 😁
I followed each step here. It took me like 8 hours trial and error and it works. If you live in NYC area and you are not very handy maybe I can do it for you for few hundred bucks if I can find time. PM
Peter Flaherty glad you got yours fixed. Hopefully you can get some others fixed in your area. Thanks for watching.
Fantastic video!! If my odyssey didn’t have 215,000 on it and wasn’t all banged up, I would do this. So, for now,we will do it old school way and muscle the door open.
Dandy video! I got quoted about 1000bucks for toyota sequoia rear latch, 450 for the fully assembled latch....an extremely intelligent friend messed with this switch you showed but he figured out, in the end, it was just dirt!
Thanks I was having my driver side door not opening it started today I saw the slide door light on my dash saw your video pulled my 7.5 fuse under driver panel. Put it back light went off and door works again. 👍🏽 we’ll see how long it last but it’s working now. It’s an 2007 had it for 8 years never had this problem but thanks for the help
These vehicles are getting so complicated I just want to buy a horse.
_In Soviet Russia horse buys YOU!!!_
Lol.
Great video, saved big $$$. FYI, ABJ362860 is a direct replacement for the switch. No drilling or soldering and plenty of wire; just need two small wire nuts to twist to the car wires.
Fantastic Video...Just got rid of my odyssey with 215,000 on it. I didn't want to put anymore time into it. Again...Nice Video!
Sir thank you for this video. It was everything that I needed. Your fix was my fix and it was infinitely cheaper and I was able to handle it easy because of your instructions
Shane Gliser great. Glad I could help. Thanks for watching.
Great video! You sure helped me out. I would not have figured out how to reset my doors after fixing the power latch actuator. God bless you.
My rollers are bad, HOPE this never happens. If I do I'll watch your video about 10 more times. THANKS FOR UPLOAD!!
toshibavoodoo good luck with the roller replacement. I never had to do that one. Thanks for watching.
Exactly what I needed. Thanks for the close ups and the link to the switches in Amazon. Once I reset the computer on the van everything was back to normal. thank you very much!!!
Did not know that about the door code! Thanks. Need to check this out in my van as I know the cable was cut, but the side door light is also on so not sure if it's related or something else
Fantastic video! Thank you so much! I just finished the repair in about 4 hours, using an original $10 switch (no drilling or soldiering needed). BTW, you don't need to remove the whole trim around the window. Just the unclipping the lower section was enough for me. I didn't find a good way to pull the clips that hold the metal cables. Pulling them out damaged them a bit, and I didn't find a way to push them from behind.
Do you have the part number
original swith can share please.
Great video man and i have watched ALL of them. Love your style - thanks for taking time to show this to the rest of us.
harrellNOAA glad I could help. Thanks for watching.
@@DustinRogersinMO Update - I tried the tin foil trick, but I have a 2015 Oddy and you get a different result. The trick just turns the power on as if you turned the key to the first position. There was another slot that looked different, it has several connectors that are counter sunk so I left them alone. Too bad I could not get to the code numbers like you did. But my door has been a bear to fix and so I am going to pull the switch and test it anyway.
Thank you Dustin Rogers for the great video. You are a lifesaver! The Driver side rear door went out on me, and with your video, I was confident to complete the job. I would say, it may be better to get the exact switch from Digikey as Valentin Valtchanov suggests as I had to replace both switches, and the second switch is hard to replace with the Amazon sourced. Also, with wires would make it easy not to have to deal with tight wires with the existing wiring. Thank you for giving us the video.
Thanks for watching. Glad you were able to get it fixed.
Thanks for the advice, I like your video, I will try it out, thanks for your explanation
Thanks i found the problem with the help of this video and now I replaced it in both doors and they working now. Thanks again!!
My understanding is that you might as well clean and lube the assembly while you have it out. Thanks for doing the video... see you on the ODY Forum!
Excellent guide! Thanks for that. Your struggles made the job allot easier for me to complete the repair.
Thanks. Glad it was helpful.
Aaaas your take-apart was Most Excellent, & helped me Lots to get that B(eauty) out, here's an Add.
Spring-loaded arm sticky, fails to activate upper microswitch N.O. as latch closes (should strike just short of grab-slot vertical) White wire won't connect black -stronger spring would be great, some hopes, but clean & lube while there, that alone fixed my "close, 3-second reopen"
Great video. Thank you very much. My van had the same issue with driver side sliding door and was able to fix it exactly as you had instructed.
aprieciate the vid. Figured mine out. In many cases its not the switch but a tiny spring loaded lever that activates the switch. White greas thickens over time so it will not spring back all the way into place.
Main levers, servos and reset still work but the rear latch switch does not activate because the tiny lever inside is stuck. Just shoot good old wd40 way up into the rear latch assembly and walla... all is like new again. Hope this helps somone.
Btw when the switches do seat it should also stop the annoying 400mh battery drain as well.
zzzonezz interesting. Thanks for the tip. Hopefully it will benefit someone.
Dude this was a great help. Thank you for doing this video. It saved me lots of time and money.
The window track I used a small pry bar and it slipped in easy.
ronald titley great! Glad I could help. Thanks for watching.
I was able to make the same repair to my door. Thank you for sharing, it gave me the confidence and the instruction I needed.
Just fixed my '05 Odyssey driver side sliding door. They sell the micro switch on eBay for $30, exact fit, no hole drilling. After 2 days for driving, the light hasn't come back yet. Yes, the window track is pain in the neck to squeeze the latch assembly thru, even after I took off the bracket.
Francis Phuong Sweet. Glad you got it fixed and saved some money. Can you share a link to the switch you ordered?
@@DustinRogersinMO www.ebay.com/itm/05-10-Honda-Odyssey-Power-Sliding-Door-Latch-Assembly-Micro-switch/173843208315?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
Great video. Just one tweak: no need to remove the cables in the far ends, you can remove them at the near ends of the assembly.
This was a fantastic video! I've probably watched it a half a dozen times. Thank you so much! I was able to order an exact replacement, and got the switch swapped out pretty quick. I had to do some additional troubleshooting, and resetting to get the door to operate after I installed everything, but it has worked out. Thanks again!
Thank you, your video was a great help, I had code b2088 and the problem is now fixed.
I'd like to add that I was able to open up the original blue micro switch and clean it out. The stainless steel arm is able to slide out and once you do that the switch pops open in the middle if you pry it gently with a small screw driver. Once its open you can easily clean the electrical contacts. Mine was caked in dirt so the contacts would barely move. I used a small needle and some brake clean spray to clean it out and then I sprayed some silicone spray to lightly lube the contacts. The micro switch parts easily clicked back together. Tested with ohm meter to verify it worked properly before putting it all back together.
Nice! I hadn’t considered attempting to fix the switch. Thanks for the technique.
Perfect thanks! Ordered the digiswitch through your link.
Fantastic video. Thanks. Very helpful on that tin foil trick and removal of trim and latch mechanism. I think this is what’s wrong with my 2010.
Its a great video Dustin! This gives me more info and idea on how to fix this issue. I have not started to fix my odyssey but im sure your video will help a lot of DIYers....thank you so much!
Thanks for watching. Good luck with your repair.
Dude. Great video and instruction. Very helpful. Enjoyed your style and manner of explanation. You have a knack for this.
I found a direct fit microswitch priced right on eBay. It fits and works flawlessly.
Can you share the link?
Link or part number of what you found please
I did exactly what you said and it worked perfect ! You saved me a lot of money man thank you very much.👍
sherwin b great. Glad you got it working. Thanks for watching.
Great video. You know you're stuff. Had to watch it on 0.75x speed tho.
Thank you very very much. I pulled the fuse and reinsert it. Both doors work again. 👍👍
Very helpful video. Saved me almost $1000!
You have to pull the center pins on the shade hook clip down before pulling them out or you will break them! There is a spot for a small screwdriver to wedge them down .
Yep. I show that at 6:00
Great video, the left door behind the drivers seat stopped working. I checked for the code and the code came up for the switch. I replaced the switch and the door wouldn't operated until I took out the no 7 fuse and put it back in. After that the door would only open 5 or 6 times and stop again until I took the no. 7 fuse again. I saw that there is a 2nd blue switch so I'm going to replace that to see if that works.
My friend is having same problem, I hope this works for him, thanks Dustin
Hopefully it helps. Thanks for watching (and sharing)...
Thanks for your video! I noticed that your video was fast motion. But great video!👍🤩❤️😊💖💕💞
Thanks a lot for the great video, indeed your video help me a lot to follow your steps, I found all the parts in Frys electronic, keep up good works.
+Amir Entezari Great! Glad I could help. Thanks for watching.
Very creative, but also very effective fix
I doubt the switch went bad. If you clean it with contact cleaner and re grease it with dielectric grease it should work.
You are amazing!
A wonderful guy.
That's how you do a repair video. Thanks man
Glad to help
I gave this a try today and sadly it didn’t work for me. Same code. I guess I’ll go buy a new one tomorrow and replace it. It was a solid try to save $$$.
Sorry it didn’t work out for you. Hopefully the new latch assembly takes care of the issue. Thanks for watching.
Your video is brilliant, however, it is a mile or two further than I can manage as a challenged auto repair person! My fuel door, same drivers side as stuck closed sliding door, also won't close. Could these be related?
Huge thank you for making this video. It was huge help in fixing my issue.
Brandon Yarbrough fantastic, glad you got it fixed. Thanks for watching.
You're a life saver
Seems like this will be a working solution for me as well as soon as I put everything back together tomorrow. I just wanted to ask about the longevity of the fix. Is it still working for you?? Thank you though for taking the time to document all this and very recommended video and solution. Thank you!!!!!
Chris Alvarado yep, still working, although the door rollers on mine are starting to get a bit noisy, so I foresee myself replacing those before too long.
Dustin Rogers I just replaced the door rollers on mine both sides jus two days ago. If you can get through this fix those are a breeze and well worth it. Good luck when you get the chance to replace those.
Pulled #7 fuse - took care of it - nice call!!
Charles Roeder hopefully the issue doesn’t return for you. If it does, check out what codes it’s throwing.
Darn! wish i saw this earlier. I just replaced the entire assembly on both doors last year and it cost me a few hundred bucks.
2008 Odyssey. Pulling the driver's side number 7 fuse worked for some reason. Did some research in the process.
It worked for me too, temporarily. After 3-5 open/close cycles the light on the dash came back on. Hopefully yours will stay fixed though.
This is a great video !!! Thank you so much , i've looked for this problem to fix for a long time .
Sam M. Thanks. Good luck with your repair. Hope it goes smoothly for you. If you have any questions, ask. Thanks for watching.
i am thinking of coming off that #7 BACK UP fuse receptacle in the block with a circuit that includes an in-line fuse holder for the same 7.5 amp fuse and a switch to be mounted somewhere convenient. You just have to remember to turn that switch OFF whenever you turn OFF the ignition. Leave the doors in manual if necessary. To hell with all that door disassembly ( which you will probably have to do to both sides as things like to die in pairs). This is why I am wary of bells and whistles .... great when it's new, potential to be a real pain when they get old..... and I always get them when they're old.
Dave C the driver side failed about a year prior to this one. I paid an independent shop $1000 to fix the issue. When the passenger side failed, I wasn’t going to pay another $1000, so I did some research. Going in without knowing the exact process, while also recording video, the process only took 3 hours. Doing it again would take 1/2 that time and then you wouldn’t have to worry about it for another 12 years.
@@DustinRogersinMO I hear you, but it's my sister's van and we live 1500 miles apart. I visit on holidays and try to fix all the family's issues with limited tools, resources and time. Right now she is disconnecting the battery at shut down. She doesn't want to be pulling the fuse all the time as that is a pain and will eventually ruin the fuse receptacle. I can mail her a little circuit to plug in so she is just flipping a switch and not popping the hood all the time. That said... awesome video. I like the increased playback speed and clear instruction. One of the best I seen. So good, if that van sat in my driveway, I probably would do it the right way since you did all the hard cussing and scratching part for us...
Dave C long distance repairs are tough. There are a couple other issues that I’ve read about that could be the issue. The fuse circuit will work, but if you plan to try to fix on your next visit, I’d have her check the body codes ahead of time to make sure it’s one of these codes. That way you could have the switch on hand. Thanks for the nice words and thanks for watching.
Our 2005 odyssey the rear sliding door would not suck in all the way. Turned out we had to take the cover off the door and blow the little motor inside out with an air hose. Gravel roads are rough on sliding doors and it was just dirty.
Thank you Dustin for the video and your time. It's very helpful indeed.
+Micheal Chen thanks for watching
WOW! I've been told it would cost 700+ to get the assembly fixed on my door! I've just let it be, with almost 200K on my van. I wish I was as mechanically inclined as this guy! (ok, well . . maybe half!)
Angie Popoff unfortunately most repair shops, especially dealers won't do this particular repair because they have to be able to guarantee the repair. This is a DIY solution that can save a ton of money. Find a friend, neighbor, co-worker, etc that knows how to solder, as that is probably the most difficult part of this repair. The rest is merely unbolting pieces. Good luck if you attempt the repair and thanks for watching.
I have the same problem.
But being unable to get around physically I just don't use my back doors.
At 230+ miles it's just not worth fixing although I do wish cars would go back to non motorize parts .
Besides turning people into lazy robots , it makes the chances of more things going wrong in a vehicle . Nice video.
Do other makes have this same problem ?
Great video man I appreciate your time I'll be doing this on my Honda Odyssey also
Where are you located, I would love for you to work on my Honda Odyssey 👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Great job
Does anyone else have issue with video playback speed on this video? I have to cut the playback speed to 50% otherwise he sounds like a chipmunk.
Great video though! It helped me fix my door!
I sped the video up during editing to keep the length of the video shorter. Adjusting playback speed works perfectly to adjust it to your desired rate of consumption. :) Thanks for watching. Glad I could help.
