When to replace: If your sliding door jumps or has trouble sliding shut.

Part Needed:

EX & LX Part # 72520-S0X-A53 (passenger side)
EX & LX Part # 72560-S0X-A53 (driver’s side)

Tools Needed: 10 and 12mm sockets. Long socket extension. phillips screwdriver. Car jack.
Time Needed: 45 minutes
Difficulty: Medium

WRITTEN STEPS:

Remove rear brake light: Pry open two small plastic access ports and removing two phillips screws. The whole assembly pulls straight back – it takes a bit of effort.
Open the door part way: EX owners, press the door open button, and then turn door switch off from the control panel (left of the steering wheel) when door is partway open. Remove two phillips screws on the small body panel that covers the cable. Remove one bolt from the front of the same panel. These are both on the outside of the van.
Pull off the body panel cover: The next step is to simply pull off the panel you removed the screws from. The panel slides back about two inches and then pulls off exposing the cable.
Support the door: The next step is to support the door. Use a car jack with a 2×4 and a towel to protect the paint. The nice thing about the jack is that it is easy to adjust the height when you reinstall everything.

~For EX model (i.e. electric doors) only ~

Outside the van, use a felt pen of some kind to trace around where the roller assembly mounts onto the inside of the door (this is used for alignment when you put the new one in). Inside of the van, remove or at least pull back slightly the interior side panel between the sliding door and trunk. You need to loosen the door drive cable inside the car only enough so you can remove the cables from the roller on the outside off the car. (this is about a quarter turn clockwise).

Unhook cables & remove the roller assembly.

Install new roller assembly.

~For LX model (i.e. non-electric doors) only ~

Use a felt pen of some kind to trace around where the roller assembly mounts onto the inside of the door(this is used for alignment when you put the new one in).

Remove the roller assembly.

Install new roller assembly.

Had a question. My van door closes fine but doesn't fully latch onto the striking plate. The door stays latched but not fully locked. I have to bump the door after it closes to latch on correctly. If you are family with how these doors closed, once you pull the lever to close the door it slides down and once its finishes it then has another mechanism that pulls the door locked. I have a feeling that is the issue with it but I am not sure 100% sure. I would like to avoid buying the wrong things reason why I am asking here. Would anyone happen to know what may be causing this or what I should change to fix this problem?

Thanks for the great video. I have a question, how did you know that the rolers were the problem? My door when I try to open it is very hard to open, I have to push door really hard to slide door. how do I know if its something else? I bought the van used and it never worked (I can't heard anything electronic wise). I would love to make it work at least to be able to open it by hand easily .
Thanks for sharing your videos.

Hi. thanks for the vid. Like the person below says, auto doors = pain in the ass. Question: do you think the cable can come out and the doors go back to simple manual slides?
