Last night i sprayed everything with silicone spray with no luck.
Sienna sliding door stuck.
The automatic sliding passenger door on my 2005 toyota sienna won t open.
The door is supposed to unlatch first before it triggers the motor to pull it open.
The electric motor s circuit will become overloaded and this will trip the fuse and prevent the door from being closed entirely.
At first the door won t work properly.
I broke the handle off last winter and got the opportunity to figure out how to replace it which wasn t all that difficult and sure enough today it s 6f outside and the door is stuck.
This happens when the power sliding door isn t able to latch on properly due to something blocking it.
Most common problem is the motor of the latch fails.
Frayed cable the cable in the side door is prone to fraying and then breaking.
The sliding door latch is not working see the picture of the latch unit.
We have an 05 sienna and like everyone every winter the side sliding doors freeze.
We can think of a few common reasons.
If you pull the handle on the inside or outside it doesn t open the door it behaves just like it is locked.
