2007 Grand Caravan RH Sliding Door

Friend's 2007 Grand Caravan remote does not unlock or lock the right sliding door. The remote will open/close the door though. It just has to be locked/unlocked manually. All other doors lock/unlock properly with the remote control.

One other problem just developed recently too. The front & rear lights don't flash when the remote is used to unlock the doors.

Suggestions?

TIA

My wifes 2007 Town and Country has the same problem with the lock on the same door as your friend. Also the same door will start to open but stops in the same spot every time. Any help appreicated. Thanks

Common trouble area for sliders is the wire bundle at the bottom of the door. The bundle is in a plastic casing for protection. Sometimes the wires find their way out and break or short to ground. Here's a video that shows how to get at it to inspect it. Sometimes wires will break inside their insulation. Look for a bump: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=705hcJqOf6U

Update:

Owner took the vehicle to the dealer for repairs. Wasn't going to wait for me. lol Cost: about $450. It was the actuator.

Oh well. His money.

Thanks guys.
