Automatic Sliding Door Reset 2005 Honda Odyssey

[@OTBMaster]

I tried this and it didn't work. Then I read a comment with a suggestion to pull the fuses on each side (driver/passenger). I tried that and also waited for longer with both fuses out. I also opened both doors... Then both doors didn't work! So I turned the door to manual and closed the driver side (which had always been working fine previously), then it worked again. So I manually closed the passenger side, and immediately heard the motor drawing it closed for the last inch - fixed! It wasn't doing that previously. Thanks for your video, and to others, don't give up immediately, I had to try those things and give a more thorough attempt and it worked. Very relieved.

[@brianwiggins1344]

I read about the fuse method some months ago on a couple forums, but hesitated to try it, for whatever reason. I started looking again for a solution, this time for a van maintenance place. Good thing I came by this video; I forgot about the fuse method. I would have wasted who knows how much money. I did the fuse method just like the video, and it worked exactly as explained. Thanks a million.

[@donwillie9044]

I just want to say, I have been working on this door for over 2 hours trying to figure out why it would not work after I changed out the sliding center hinge. Honda wanted $89 for the hinge and I bought it on the internet for $18. I have been going crazy trying to figure out why the automatic feature would not work. I found this KZbin video that is easy to understand and works perfectly. It is amazing to me that Honda would make something like this and not tell you how to fix it. The Manuel says to take it to the dealer. What a joke! Thank you for this video! You made my life so much easier today!

[@claysonoutdoors6185]

we have gone all summer without the passenger side door working because someone really pulled on the handle and door too hard and it stopped working. We thought that it dislodged a cable or the motor burned out, but it was just this one simple homing trick that did it. Thank you so much for showing this. It saved us a lot of money.

[@samanthareynolds4770]

2023 and this video is still helping people! Thank you!

[@bpyoungtx]

It works like a charm. It took us 5 minutes. Our is 2005 Odyssey passenger side sliding door. Save us a lot of money & time. Dealers, repair shops & mechanics wish this video does not exists. Thank you so much. You are a life saver.

[@emilyng908]

This worked on my 2007 Odyssey, THANK YOU!!! I watched so many vids are kept switching out the fuses for the sliding door and nothing ever worked. Thank you again!!

[@donbayan1057]

Thank you for taking the time to make and share this video. My trouble was “slide door” light came on after closing right passenger sliding door. I pressed control to open it and it would not do anything. The left sliding door will not open as well. I searched on KZbin for fix, found videos that talks about pulling fuse #7 from driver side, which worked to cancel “slide door” light and fixed left sliding. Right sliding door still not working. I found your video and you mentioned fuse on side of front passenger sit. I pulled it out, waited 10 seconds, and it did fix the problem, but “slide door” light came back on after 2nd try of opening right sliding door. So I pulled out fuse #8 on the right side and then pulled out fuse #7 on left side to reset both. Pushed back fuse #8 on right fuse box and then the fuse #7 on the driver side. Both sliding doors will work but after restarting engine it will trip “slide door” light again causing the right sliding door to stop working again. I will give it another try and drive the van, hopefully it will reset the system

[@OTBMaster]

I don't know if it was your suggestion to do the fuses on each side, but I tried that and also waited for longer with both fuses out. I also opened both doors... Then both doors didn't work! So I turned the door to manual and closed the driver side (which had always been working fine previously), then it worked again. So I manually closed the passenger side, and immediately heard the motor drawing it closed for the last inch - fixed! It wasn't doing that previously. Thanks to your comment, I gave the whole fuse thing a more thorough attempt and it worked. Very relieved.

[@DanJohnston-o8u]

Thank you so much for posting this fix. It worked on our 05 Odyssey and we are so happy we don't have to take it to the dealer!

[@jetzabelruiz2513]

My passenger side sliding door (2006) had not worked for over a month and was told many times that only a mechanic could fix that. I followed your video step by step and WALA, it works!!! Super excited, thank you for this post!

[@MirandaBradley]

I have never loved a you tube video more! Both of my children are in rear facing convertible car seats so for the past month I have been climbing in through the back to put my 1 year old in his car seat. After watching your video, my car door opens! Halle-freakin-lujah!!!!

[@stever948]

Awesome! We have a 2008 Odyssey that I just replaced the roller assembly on, and couldn't get it to work in automatic mode I spent a half hour searching bad internet and finally someone who knows what to do. Followed your instructions and it worked great the first time. Thanks for the video!

[@NKadi2]

Thanks for taking the time to share your quick fix instructions. You saved the day!! People like you certainly make a difference and have a positive impact in our society and in our lives.

[@write2vino]

This is exactly what the issue was for me. I just followed the instruction and it worked like a charm. It was the Monday morning thing and I said....man now I have to take this to a dealer and pay them some hefty money to repair this sliding door issue. In my case it was sliding door on driver that didn't work and the "Slide Door" light was 'ON' on the dashboard. Many thanks to this video.

[@steveleyva1396]

Wow! Thank you. Got my doors working again. Super simple instructions. Well done.

[@BarboursAutoHelp]

Thank you so much for sharing. You just helped a mechanic! I just purchased an 05 Odyssey and the first time I opened the door I caused a problem. I knew there had to be some kind of "reset" or "initialization" procedure to get it right, but I did not know how to do it. (I'm a Ford mechanic by the way). I appreciate it!

[@jmilesmu]

Awesome! Thanks. Worked great....second time after I realized I was reading fuse box label wrong and pulled wrong fuse. This was after spending a lot of time and frustration replacing/aligning new middle rollers just right. Your reset video completed the job. Dealership quoted me around $500 for repair. I paid about $75 for replacement rollers (both doors), spent some time researching how to videos on you tube, spent a few hours total on labor, and everything worked out for a lot less than dealer!! Thanks again!!!

[@AndyNarendra]

What the heck?! We've been living with this busted door for over three months, took it to two mechanics, and had a $1000+ quote. I just took your advice and fixed it in 1 minute. Can't thank you enough!!!!!!!

[@Alms6487]

Thank you so much for this video! I did the search on KZbin, found your video--then played it for my husband on the TV. He left to the garage to fix it and came back in less than 5 minutes!! Our Odyssey minivan sliding doors are working now!

[@3guys1girl]

Outstanding. I was having the same problem with the driver side door and couldn't really find much on line. The dealer probably would have charged me $100 to do this. The door works now. Thanks for the great video.

[@Jar_Fishing]

Worked like a charm. No telling how much I would have paid dealership to do that. Thanks!

[@NeilGarthly]

Thank you!! Thank you!! Thank you!! It's been over a year that my door didn't work. I took it to two Honda dealerships and they couldn't figure it out. Can't believe I had to wait a year and a half for a 30 second fix. The door works perfectly!!!

[@pamacord424]

Thanks!!! This worked great. Because we have a 2005, we were sure the motor had stopped working. Decided to try this first, you saved us about $400. Thanks again.

[@rodneysmith247]

The middle row 2nd from the front yellow power door fuse has reset my door several times by pulling it out for 5 second and replacing it but this time it wouldn't work till I saw your video and got my door reset again. Thank you so much 🙂

[@johnraymond1520]

That worked! Thank you so much I've been beating my head against the wall trying to figure that out. And it was on the passenger side on ours too. it's sometimes opens but then it doesn't want to shut but at least I can get it open now and close it manually. We own a transportation company so it's important that all the doors open. Thank you again

[@kasnaiboa]

You the Man! I followed yours intructions it worked Thank you

[@ananthap1]

Thank you very much for this video. It solved the problem I had with my honda odyssey passenger side sliding door not working.. Your instructions worked like a charm.. Very grateful to you for sharing this video.

[@bvr6295]

Wow. Its working now. Believe it or not. For getting fixed this small issue, i went several times to garage. I have to wait and waste almost a day in the garage. Oh my god..... Its working great now. It took less than 5 minutes to fix the problem. Thanks for the video.

[@prodd1982]

You just saved me a trip to dealership and added a stamp to my man card. Thanks for posting

[@markrankin3297]

I had to join KZbin just to say thank you so much for sharing this information. I could not believe it when it worked for me. My wife is leaving on a trip and I was watching all the videos of tearing these doors down to the last nuts and bolts. This is a very valuable bit of information. Thanks so much. You are my new best friend!

[@TA-px1nu]

Thank you so much you helped me fix my door. I've watched 30 videos and yours was the only one that helped. Thanks again!

[@JoshuaJLutz]

Thanks to you I was able to help my in-laws with the same door problem. It took 2 minutes using your steps. Thanks a ton!

[@PhuocNguyen-qm9uh]

say man thank for the tip i was going to take it to the shop to get the motor fix but your video help me out and it worked you saved me $300 easy fix thanks

[@coachhebert8468]

Grest video, worked like a charm. I lived in Costs Rica and without ykur video, i would have had problems finding someone to repair my doors.

[@FrayDamien]

Oh my gosh thank you so much! I have a 2008 odyssey and my driver side, back slide door was "stuck". It wouldn't open automatically nor manually. I was sure there was something major going on. I tried your easy to follow method and now I'm our family's hero! Thank you so much!

[@dddd018]

Just did it, in about a min ! I couldn’t believe it was the “Back Up” fuse needed reset. I had tried before with the secondary fuse box under hood with fuse marked ‘Right Power Sliding Door’ but ...... ☹️. Much appreciated 😃🙏!! (2010 Honda Odyssey)

[@MattClark77]

You're a lifesaver - this worked perfectly. We had tried the other posts that referenced the sliding door fuses too, their procedures didn't work. Thanks!

[@rapharaj8587]

Thank you so much for sharing this info. I'm glad I declined the dealership offer for a good amount of money because of financial constraints when all that is involved was just resetting and ensuring the HOME position by this process. Thanks again for this info - God Bless

[@LuisBiggsRealEstate]

I had to pull both 7.5 amp fuses on my 2007 Odyssey after it got a Krown underspray .. actually had to leave them out for a good while then the doors latched again properly. (Backup on the left side and illumination on the right.) I had actually pulled the 20 amp fuses as well and then nothing electrical worked after that for a short while .. not even the electric locks.. directly with the switch or by the remote.. don't panick if that happens to you too. It seems to all be working again now.. It happened to both doors at the exact time, I am rather confident that it is an electrical issue and not mechanical.. Thanks for posting this video.. Cheers..Luis

[@1abanee]

Thank you so much! I watched your video, did exactly what you demonstrated, and it worked! Just an FYI there is a fuse remover in the fuse box located in the engine for the 2005 Honda Odyssey! Great vid and appreciate you much!

[@misterkike2003]

IT WORKED ON 2005 ODYSSEY TOURING. I tried other videos and repairs but they did not work for me. Thank you very much!

[@justinkinney910]

By far the quickest fix I've ever had to do. Much better than the transmission I replaced in my girlfriends 06'. Lol

[@FamPoo]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for making this video! We had given up trying to fix our doors because of repair quotes over $1000. Thanks to your instructions both of our doors work again! Thank you!

[@ken5ism]

Thank-you so much...You just saved me $101.99 at Dealership for diagnostic test. Fantastic work.

[@muchlatersooner]

From the video.... 1. Pull fuse # 7 (a red 7.5 Amp fuse for the "Back Up" circuit) from the Driver's side fuse box. 2. Move the sliding door switch on the dashboard to the on position. 3. Put the ignition key in the ignition switch. Even with the Driver's door open, you won't here the beep-beep-beep nagging you that your key is in the ignition. 4. Turn the key from the 0 position to the II position. The car will now be "on" but the engine will not be running. 5. Move the sliding door switch on the dashboard to the on position. 6. Turn the ignition key back to the 0 position and remove the key. 7. Replace the # 7 fuse. 8. Put the ignition key back in the ignition switch. Congratulations, your door is now "homed."

[@tkkonirc]

muchlatersooner thank you! this worked for me

[@TheDERoyal]

I was ready to blow the van up! I tried all the other tricks and figured I was the exception. I went out at 11:20 at night to try this one last time so my kids didn't have problems tomorrow at school. Low and behold, THE DOOR OPENED! If it wasn't for Jesus, I'd be going to hell for sure after all the cussing I went through. THANK YOU and Jesus!

[@leftblank6036]

you said on step 2 and step 3 to turn the door switch to 'on' did you mean on step 2 for it to be off?

[@jhugh8726]

Worked like a charm! If you need a fuse puller there is one in the fuse box under the hood on the passenger side fuse box!

[@mannycarrillo8782]

Great video 👏👏. no need to turn off the sliding door switch. With the ignition off just pull fuse and wait 10 secs, put the fuse back, turn ignition to acc position and door should work.

[@billmoon1855]

this video came in handy for me just a couple of days ago, I was having a problem with the sliding Doors on a 2005 Honda Odyssey, and after I watched the video I done what it said and they worked great. So I just wanted to say thanks for posting the video.

[@ken5ism]

"Big UPs"!!! You just saved me quite a bit of hard earned money. Dealer was going to charge me $75 just to diagnose this issue. Thanks a-lot, Bro.

[@baronvonmike]

Thank you so much!! Our RHS sliding door just magically stopped working. All fuses were good. Found this video and it solved our issue. I guess door just needed to be reset.

[@stevehaugen5835]

Thank you so much for this!! It worked immediately. Only thing I would add is manually open doors before starting. Then after replacing fuse turn key to II position then manually close doors. Then switch button to ON position for sliding doors and test. The 1st attempt with the doors closed had no change. The 2nd attempt with doors open (as discussed in other forums you referenced) but not closing doors resulted in neither door operating with power. The 3rd attempt I manually closed the doors and thought OK give it one more shot. And wallah both doors open with power!!!

[@dougward6953]

This worked perfectly following your steps with the doors. thank you!!

[@hankyg329]

I had this exact problem & this was such a simple solution. I am grateful you posted this to KZbin. Thank you.

[@jaredagoble]

Thank you for posting this! My passenger sliding door works again and it took me less than 5 minutes to fix it!!

[@danielkirkhart]

Thanks for making this video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Saved me a trip to the dealership and probably several hundred dollars!

[@katieburton7246]

Thank you so much! This worked and it literally took 2 minutes. My power doors would not open or close by any method (key fob, dash button, pull handle). The hardest part is just getting down under the dash to get at the fuse box. Problem now solved! (Odyssey 2005)

[@AlexThePhenex]

Thank you so much for this very very helpful video. I just purchased an 05 Honda Odyssey and had that issue of my right sliding door not functioning until I tried this video

[@geevuon8165]

Amazing. It works flawlessly for my 2005 Odyssey EX. You saved me a trip to the mechanic. Thank you.

[@NataliePalmerbooks]

Thank you so much! Our passenger side door hasn't been sliding for so long and I kept putting off taking it in. I'm so glad I found this video before I paid an arm and a leg for something so easy!!

[@waynevannice8463]

This just fixed mine...thanks so much. I wish I would have seen this before taking the door panel and plastic water-block off :)

[@shaunfg]

Thanks for the video!! People like you have saved me hundreds maybe thousands of dollars!

[@amandachandler7492]

You are awsome!!! Thanks so much! Dealer wanted 500 bucks to do this! We didn't have the money...can't thank you enough!!

[@teamindia87]

Honda Dealers are crazy!! Gave my father an estimate of 870$. Oh by the way they included 10% off coupon. To fix this problem. I ended up paying $150 for checking the problem or else wont give him car back. Wtf. After following this video problem was solved. Thanks so much for saving my father bunch of $. Appreciate u sharing this video.

[@rickboucher6061]

Thanks! Daughters 2001 and fuse is in engine compartment, not numbered, and removing both power seat and backup did the trick!!

[@kaylonvalleyent.ezgrowland5958]

Thank you, you saved me a lot of unnecessary work. Didn't know they could be reset.

[@hyunsookim8345]

Thank you. Your instruction were clear and worked like a charm. My doors are fixed.

[@miagoodson372]

Thank you SO much!! I haven't been able to use my driver side sliding door in MONTHS. Now, I'm back in the game. 🤗

[@VWtech562]

amazing brother, I have an 06 touring. I just pulled fuse, turn key to # ll, turn off sliding doors button, turn key to # l position, turn on sliding doors button, re-install fuse, and it worked on first attempt.

[@joseasisclosoriano6057]

[@ecman1986]

I went down the same path and decided to look in youtube. Thank you very much for taking the time to make and post your video. For me it was a less than a 3 minute fix. :)

[@leatricedavis7899]

thank you so much you just save my husband some money. it's worked and now we thought we was going to have to take it to the car dealer.

[@ocarrillo2722]

Thank you very much, it worked. I was afraid that the motor was burn. You made my day

[@zeitgeist57]

I was also confused with instructions on Odyclub...thank you VERY much. Your instructions worked perfectly for my 2010 Odizzle EX-L. I appreciate the tutorial.

[@albertdevita8577]

Woohoo! Thank you, thank you, I thought we were in for an expensive bill from the dealer. And, thank you for digging to find the correct info for 2005 Odyssey, which, is what we have and love.

[@JimmyLeeHook]

I feel like I should send you a check or something. That was very helpful. Thank you for the excellent information and for taking the time to share it. Wow. Update: it only works\Ed for the first three open/close cycles. Not sure what to do now. I have to keep resetting it over and over

[@philipcharles8012]

Nice!!! Worked like a charm. To all - there is a fuse puller in the engine compartment fuse box Thanks

[@garygummerman1862]

Thanks so much!! Worked as a temporary fix! Now I just need to replace the sliding door rollers that have failed.

You are an absolute godsend. Thanks a lot and keep them coming buddy.

[@juliancalavera]

omg, i dont know shit about cars and i just bought a 2005 Odyssey with not working sliding doors, and i just did this and is effin working. You rock dude. 😀

[@dustinwebster6349]

Thanks for clarifying that for at least the 2005 Honda Odyssey, it is the driver's side #7 fuse for "back Up", located on the driver's side, not the #7 or # 8 fuse on the passenger side. I wasted a bunch of time chasing my tail based on other instructions that were constantly saying passenger side.

[@marcusjlewis]

Thank you! This worked!!! I tap danced in the parking lot.

[@tduong29]

Thank You! this helps. Some say its on the passenger side, some say its under the hood, but neither is the correct one. The correct one is Fuse # 7 in the DRIVER kick pannel fuse box.
