The power sliding door (PSD) includes several interconnected
electronic and mechanical components. Obtain a specific customer concern in
order to efficiently diagnose and repair the PSD system. Begin diagnosis
with a service writer. Ask the customer for as much detail as possible regarding
the conditions under which a failure of the door was noticed. Always include
the basic concern, such as "door reverses when closing". The
following details might affect the performance of the PSD:
• | Weather conditions, such as snow or heavy ice |
• | The van was parked on an incline. |
• | The van has been parked for a long time, which may cause a weak
battery. |
Refer to Power Sliding Door Customer Concerns for diagnosis. Verify
that all of the mechanical components of the PSD are aligned and operating
correctly before you begin diagnosis of the electrical system. The electrical
components cannot operate correctly if the mechanical components are not
operating correctly.
