Programming and Relearning

Any time a power sliding door component is removed, replaced, door adjustment is performed or diagnostic trouble codes are addressed and erased, a learn cycle must be performed. This learn cycle enables the power sliding door control module to learn or relearn its critical information (travel limits, resistance to door travel, etc.) which allows it to perform properly and safely. To perform a power sliding door learn cycle do the following:

1. Obtain a DRB III (R), or equivalent scan tool. Connect the scan tool to the vehicle and check for any power sliding door system stored diagnostic trouble codes, erase any stored codes. Operate the system and check to see if any trouble codes return. If any diagnostic trouble codes return, diagnose, correct and erase the codes before performing the learn cycle. If a DRB III (R), or equivalent scan tool is not available, the learn cycle can be performed by opening and closing the power sliding door using any of the normal open/ close command switches. Be certain to cycle the power sliding door through a complete open and close cycle or the procedure will not be complete.
2. Using the scan tool, Go into Test Routine Menu and select a power open command.
3. Select a power close command.
4. The power side door learn cycle is complete.

NOTE: If the power sliding door will not complete a full cycle, a problem exists with the power sliding door system.
