Q: Passenger's side sliding door not working.

asked by on January 12, 2016

The automatic passenger side sliding door is not working. The Slide Door light is on. I reset all of the fuses and can get it to work initially, but after it automatically opens and closes one time, the light comes back on, and the door stops working again.
