Greetings,

1. Check to be sure the power sliding door is unlocked and securely closed.

2. Turn the ignition key to OFF.

3. If the power sliding door override is on, press the textured end of the power sliding door override switch to turn it off.

4. Remove fuse 29 from the underhood fuse block. Leave it out for 30 seconds.

5. Reinstall the fuse and wait 10 seconds.

6. Turn the power sliding door override on by pressing the end of the switch with the override symbol on it.

7. Press the power sliding door switch to open the power sliding door.

8. Open the door all of the way.

9. Wait five seconds and close the door by pressing the power sliding door switch.

10. Wait five seconds and repeat Steps 7 through 9.

11. Check that all the recalls click here and here and here, related to the Power Sliding Door (PSD), have been performed.

Good luck,
Bob

Hi,
thanks for the reply, i have tried this allready but the door only moves manually. the motor makes no attempt to move the door. if the door is open or closed and you press the open/close button all i can hear is a click or switch sound coming from the rear of the car.
Any more ideas?

Were all the recalls done? You may want to give your vin# to the dealer and they can tell you if they have, that would be first, then recheck.
