Problem overview

Some Honda Odyssey owners report experiencing electric sliding door issues, particularly with the right door malfunctioning and the left door not opening. Common causes of these malfunctions include the sliding door switch being in the off position, rubber components falling off, or water entering electrical connectors, which can lead to multiple electrical problems. Additionally, debris or small objects stuck in the sliding door track can hinder smooth operation. Specific issues reported include the right sliding door displaying a problem message and being unresponsive, indicating potential electrical issues or faulty connections, while the left door may not open due to faulty wiring, a blown fuse, or problems with the door control module. For minor issues, some owners find that lubricating the tracks and locking mechanisms can help, but more complex problems, such as replacing the door motor or adjusting sensors, often require professional assistance for effective diagnosis and repair.
