I know it's years after your post, but thank you very much for this. The hardest part was getting to the actuator, and your video had excellent detail regarding that - better than the others. I am not a mechanic, but thanks to your video, I was able to fix this in just over half an hour. Thanks so much!

Awesome, thank you for uploading this. I followed your instructions. Replaced it last night. Took about an hour. Door works like a charm again.

Thanks for uploading this video. It enabled me to fix my driver's side sliding door lock actuator in an hour.

Great video. Was able to change this part in 30 minutes thanks to this video!!!

Thanks for the nice job on the video. I just did both sliding doors on my 2007 EX-L (2 hrs on the first one, 1/2 that on the other). One comment regarding the instructions at 5:20 in the video...I found it unnecessary to disconnect the wire connected to the pink clip (I've seen other instructions indicate to remove both wires from their clips). They're not connected to the actuator, so the only thing I needed to remove was the small spring that was connected to the actuator. Thanks again!

answer: don't know but odd...if you manually open it with the outside handle it should work as it doesn't use this actuator. May be a track thing, I saw some videos on those topics where they repair the track rollers by first removing the painted cover panel from the side of the van...good luck!

was able to remove the door panel with the door closed, it wasn't easy but essential to getting door open. Once I disconnected the actuator (both cable and electrical) the door would open and close from the inside only. It gets caught up closing initially so i suspect the rollers are shot, on second pull it opens properly. How do I know if the actuator is faulty as well?

Great Video, Thank you!

I have a 05 odyssey. And it didn't wan to close all the way, and now I push the button or the handle, it doesn't do anything. Like it doesn't have power. You think its the actuator?

so does your doors automatically open and close now my wife did something to the doors one day and they will attempt to open for a split second then they will stop do I really need to replace the actuator If I have a 3yr warranty on my 2006 odyssey?

My door will not open at all, can I still get the door panel off?

Wath the part name?

where did you get the part? what is the part number?

Both of my slide doors are stucked. Cannot open from inside nor outside. It's manual, not automatic and it's a 2006 Honda Odyssey. I have been looking for the video how to open the panel from inside while the door is closed and I think this video will help. But does anybody know what the problem is before I try to open it? Again, this is manual sliding door, not automatic.
