I set out to properly repair my door and removed my gear for cleaning during the process. The door is unbelievable easy to close without it. I wouldn’t blame anyone who left it out permanently. The rear door opens and closes as easy as the front door without the gear in place.

this happened to my van…the reason the door opens hard is because the motor clutch is not releasing.  As a result, you are turning the motor as you are opening/closing the door. The fix can be expensive, since you have to replace the motor.

5 more minutes and a 3″ splice of wire and you can have your power doors back… you have a broken wire in the wiring that rides in the door track.

I found this video that may help you more if you want to try it. This is a possible perminent fix that worked for me… Nice work kenkoster this is just another option…

You are correct this is a work around.  I state that in the comment. This is a no cost fix to make the door slide easy as a manual door. Sorry if you were mislead.

This is not a fix. It is a work around at best. The most likely issue is the poorly designed wiring located in the cable track in the door sill. Replace the wiring. takes about 30 min.
