2011 toyota sienna sliding door won t open.

The 2011 toyota sienna has 6 problems reported for sliding doors malfunctioning. Found instructions for reseting the power door battery on sienna it requires that you disconnect the battery wait 5 minutes and reconnect press open button on the remote key fob to open the door close the door wait 10 seconds then open the door with the remote again close the door wait 10 seconds open with the remote a third time. Using your vin check here nhtsa recall status. So the sliding door on my sienna got stuck and would not open from inside nor outside.

Average failure mileage is 21 500 miles. Passenger door ended u not opening from the inside and outside so i decided to figure out what happened. Easy fix to a faulty back door sensor. Turns out a very small piece broke off that was prev.

Iirc all sienna s from 2011 2016 were under a sliding door recall. The electric motor s circuit will become overloaded and this will trip the fuse and prevent the door from being closed entirely. If your van is pending then take it to the dealer and they will fix it as the recall involves replacing sliding door cables amongst other things. May not work for all 2011 toyota sienna s but it seems to work with the le with no factory alarm.
