Honda Odyssey Power Sliding Door fix - CHEAP

[@lar4146]

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.

[@dunngee]

@@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

Your the man bro. I love finding people on KZbin 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

[@ivanchicken2909]

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.

[@ashprid84]

Can you be a little more specific about which parts you lubricated?

[@ivanchicken2909]

@@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.

[@ashprid84]

[@jjparody8257]

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.

[@jjparody8257]

@@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.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

@@jjparody8257 we traded our van in for something different a couple years ago. It was working up to the time of trade in though.

[@JulesShepard]

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!

[@DustinRogersinMO]

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.

[@ds6846]

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...

[@georgebeebe2385]

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!

[@mr.tuckers2848]

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. 😂

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.

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!!

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Glad I could help. Thanks for watching

[@ds6846]

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.

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.

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.

[@jerryadsit4247]

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.

[@kensimon4478]

Did you revive the switch?

[@rudyshoplopez7366]

Yeah lets us now lol

[@jayz7395]

@@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.

[@soyeldiego4878]

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!

[@BrendaKWalker]

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.

[@peedee4065]

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!

The beep means there is continuity through the switch. So if there is no beep, the switch internals are not making contact with each other.

[@mrjeemyful]

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"

[@zzzonezz]

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.

airplane george not sure what you’ve tried, but I’d try to manually unlock it from the inside (don’t rely on power locks). If it still won’t open, it’s possibly a broken cable from the door handle to the latch mechanism. If it’s that, it’ll be difficult to repair because it’s hard to remove the door panel without opening the door.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

It’s possible this switch is your issue, but to be sure, you need to check the error codes. If they’re the same error codes that I specify in the video, this switch is the culprit. There are some other error codes that pertain to door issues too.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Alonze Theodore you should be able to turn the power doors off via the switch on the dash to the left of the steering wheel. After that, you should be able to open it manually with the handle. You may double check that it’s unlocked (manually from the inside) just in case the power locks are also not working.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Alonze Theodore there’s a cable that runs from the inside handle back to the latch. It’s possible that the cable is either broken or seized in the cable housing. You’d have to pull the interior door panel off to verify one way or the other.

sherwin b great. Glad you got it working. Thanks for watching.

If I remove the #7 fuse without fixing the door will that stop the battery from draining?

[@DustinRogersinMO]

I never had the draining battery issue. It’d be worth a try, but I’m not sure if the switch that malfunctions which causes the battery drain is on that same circuit, or a different circuit. If you have a multimeter, you could test it to find out. You basically need to remove one of your battery cables and connect your multimeter between the cable end and the battery post and set the meter to measure amps. Note the reading. Have someone pull fuse #7 and see if the amperage reading decreases (meaning the faulty switch can’t draw current anymore). Keep in mind that unhooking the battery cable will cause the radio to lock and will erase your preset radio stations, etc. So make sure you have your radio unlock code handy.

I just took the window track bracket off but can't get the latch out. The latch has a wide piece of plastic that's behind the window track and the track doesn't flex much. The video is a bit light on detail there. Any help appreciated.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Yeah, hard to get a camera in there and I was just figuring it out as I went. Is the latch loose inside the door and you just can’t get it pulled out through the opening in the door?

[@aarohivijh]

@@DustinRogersinMO first of all thanks for replying! I stuck my cellphone camera in there and was able to figure out exactly how to flex the track and wiggle the latch to get it out. Putting everything back together now. Sincere thanks for the video and your help.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

@@aarohivijh glad you got it figured out.

[@qrs3655]

Mannn thanks for this vid. But is it my computer or is it ur video playing on high speed?

[@rockhavengamefarm3190]

Mine says NO only? No codes? But driver side sliding door doesn’t open and close. Do I need to replace the latch assembly and sliding door motor? Pls help thanks

[@rockhavengamefarm3190]

I already reset and check the fuse. Only driver side that doesn’t work

[@gbarth13]

When putting everything back together should the switch be pushed down or up how far should the arm be bent. Thank you for the video

[@DustinRogersinMO]

gabe barth ideally you wouldn’t have to bend the switch at all. The switch will get pressed as the latch mechanism moves.

[@gbarth13]

So the button is not engaged until the open button is pushed and the lock mechanism would engage it. Or is the button not engaged and as the mechanism moves it then engages the button.

[@gbarth13]

So closed when its ideal then open as the mechanism moved just went back and watched the video. Thank you for the response. Greatly appreciate the video.

[@gbarth13]

I am sorry to bother you again. I have been having all kinds of trouble with this door. It worked for about 3 days and I am getting the same code again. Is this switch ok to use. URBEST AC 250V 5A SPDT 1NO 1NC Momentary Hinge Roller Lever Micro Switches 3 Pins 10 Pcs. Once again thank you for the reply and all the help.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

gabe barth based on those specs, it should work fine for this application

[@laurabush1810]

What is the name of the part? Hard to understand of few things you say in the video. What is the website you use to replace that part? Thanks!

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Laura Bush all the info you seek is in the description

[@mouneimdelmi7677]

Thanks for your video it's so interesting and clear. I have a slightly different issue if you can help me please. After i reset the fuse, the door works fine for one time only (open&close), but after getting it closed the "slide door" light shows again and the door gets stuck from new. And when i reset the fuse 7 again the door works perfectly with all possible senarios (using the driver button or the handle from outside), so do you think it's a switch problem too? Model 2005 Thanks in advance

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Mouneim Delmi you need to check to see what errors it’s throwing.

[@mouneimdelmi7677]

Dustin Rogers Exactly the same as yours.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Mouneim Delmi if you’re getting the same error codes, the switch that I replace in the video is the issue....or at least one issue. There’s a possibility that there is more than one issue, but you won’t know until you correct this issue.

[@mouneimdelmi7677]

Dustin Rogers Got you. Thank you so much

[@praveenalackal]

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.

[@mjcotter13]

2010 Odyssey. Left sliding door closes, then "pops" ever so slightly back open. Red light is always on on dash. Door seems to always cycle thru closing then opening. Pretty sure it is the cause of battery drain. I was psyched to find your video. Only problem: I'm only getting code B1222, which has something to do with rear climate control. I'm not getting your codes. Anyone have thoughts? Will very much appreciate the help.

[@jonnyt7388]

My 2008 Odyssey rear sliding door will not open. Not from inside or outside. Door is not locked shut. Every video requires sliding door to be at least partially open to do any work on the doors. Cannot remove inside door panel or anything. Any recommendation on how to troubleshoot a sliding door that is not locked but will not open?

[@desi4lyfe379]

Did you ever figure out the problem?

[@alanandrebekahweaver4609]

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.

[@daroodurmul5789]

i over pulled the handle to closed the door the handle became frr from inner side....do you have video show how to engage the handle again?

[@michaelcamargo6251]

Very helpful video. Saved me almost $1000!

[@shelby3822]

Did your van stall at all? Buddy has an Odyssey with broken door that stalls/doesn't start occasionally wondering if it's related

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Shelby ours did not have this issue, but I’ve read about some other door issues that cause a parasitic drain on the battery.

[@RVSparky]

Hello there, great video did same thing works great both doors work now. However I noticed that when the door closes there is now about a 3-5 second delay before the latch motor pulls the door to latch. Both doors were having the same issue every 3 cycles would stop. I changed drivers door latch motor switch first worked great but with delay, the passenger side (before I repaired it the door would close and maybe 1 second then would latch) After replacing the switch works but it also now has the same delay. Any idea whats causing the delay?

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Don Brown not sure what would cause the delay, as a switch is just a binary device. It’s either on or off. This particular switch is basically a limit switch to signal when that gear has reached a certain position. The circuit is closed until that gear activates the switch, at which time it breaks the circuit.

[@RVSparky]

I think I figured it out. Ill go back and make a change and let you know.

[@kensimon4478]

One of my doors shuts but after 4 secs pulls out of closing and has door open warning in the dash... it won't stay locked..

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Ken Simon you’ll need to check which error codes it’s throwing. If it’s one of the codes I show in this video, this repair should fix the issue unless there are multiple codes being thrown by your van.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Don Brown any luck on the repair?

[@bintzy8]

Hey Dustin! I am heading to the pick and pull parts tomorrow. What is the exact name of the OEM switch that’s malfunctioning? Thank you

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Albin Lagartera Honda doesn’t sell the switch separately. It’s built onto the sliding door rear latch assembly. You can purchase a nearly identical switch from Amazon (see link in description). If you buy a used latch assembly, be sure to do the continuity checks on the micro switch before you install it.

[@elainescheer1358]

I have a 99 Odyssey van. Just wondering if your fix would work on my closer motor for that year?

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Elaine Scheer I’m not sure if they used the same closer or even the same error codes for that body style.

[@chomp54321]

Good video! My question is: is this only for when the door won't operate? My problem is the door would open and close but the rear latch would not pull the door in. Would this work for my problem?

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Chomp this will only fix the error codes shown in the video. There are several other things that affect door operation. Do you have any error codes?

[@chomp54321]

I have not checked for error code. I think I'll let my mechanic have to a look at it. It is too bloody cold outside so I'm not really in the mood to spend a couple of hours outdoor.

[@jeffsoetmelk3566]

Our 2008 Odysseyis similar, but the passenger slider wont latch the last catch. Neither switch will make it operate. It manually moves harder than it should. Wondering if it's the latch issue or main motor/closer motor?

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Jeff Soetmelk if the SLIDE DOOR light is on, use the process I demonstrate in this video to check to see what the error code is. If it’s not one of the codes I mention, it’s likely a different issue, but searching for the code you have may show you how to fix it.

[@jeffsoetmelk3566]

@@DustinRogersinMO I have done all the fuse pulling, resetting I can find. I used your video to try the body codes. It said NO. Just the red light to say it not closed all the way. I'm at a loss, but guessing it's the main closer motor....??

[@biominer]

There is another round sensor (switch) with two screws mount on the latch. It has three wires. How does it work? Mine always open no matter the latch positions. If I remove it and move the lever pass it's range, the switch will close.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Jimmy Chao I’m not familiar with the switch you’re referring to? Is it on the latch assembly? You may check out the forums on Odyclub.com. There’s a lot of good info over there. Unfortunately we no longer own that van, so it’s hard for me to reference things on it anymore.

[@joea102]

Where are you located, I would love for you to work on my Honda Odyssey 👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Great job

[@godgodgod5035]

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.

[@bestprepaid3507]

I found a direct fit microswitch priced right on eBay. It fits and works flawlessly.

[@CoryKent1997]

Can you share the link?

[@RVSparky]

Link or part number of what you found please

[@Erich1]

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.

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Nice! I hadn’t considered attempting to fix the switch. Thanks for the technique.
