I replaced the rear lock actuator thinking it wouldn't sense it was latched ... wish I saw this video first! Thanks for making saved me hundreds more by not taking it in to get looked at.
ABSOLUTE LIFE SAVER!!! Worked on my 2016 Toyota sienna XLE door. That was the problem. Great video. Will probably replace the door latch later. Probably one of the major problems with these doors
I did not try to lubricate the cable, maybe that would have solved the problem. I did substitute a long, very light gauge spring for the rubber band... purchased at Lowe's, and the door continues to work great.
Wow! I did try and it worked. You are a genius man. It took me 30 minutes in total.
Thanks alot for this video. I thought it was the actuator not working. But ur video helped me save alot of money. Stay blessed
So I tried this out using a spring and it fixed the issue. Great video, and thanks for posting.

Glad it worked for you. In my final solution I used a long, very light gauge spring -- should outlast the rubber band. God is good.
