I am having this problem....among other's with my sienna passenger side door. It is not latching closed at the rear of the door as you just fixed. My prob is the door will not automatically open or close at all. I can pull it open and close it almost completely. I replaced the cabling that runs to the rear of the vehicle and also the motor to the actuator. I have only heard a noise (wanted to work) once, since I bought it used a month or so ago. I'm going to follow your steps best I can with the missing video footage but Do you have any advice on why my door is not doing anything?

The problem with my door is that something triggered it to bounce back and the door won't close all the way. This problem has just started yesterday. I have to push the door in order to close it all the way. Does anyone having this same problem?

Just trying to see if I understood you correctly because I have the same identical problem with my driver side sliding door. All you did was clean the contacts of the switch? I think that is what I got from your video as I didn't hear you say you replaced the closer motor or the switch. Other than that, great show and tell of the process as well as the scanner showing the switches work.

I am very far into this. Trying to get the motor out and it is very loose but something is keeping it in the door. Any tips? UPDATE: now neither rear or front latch are working. Door won’t shut at all. Dang it
