My wife's 2002 Ody's driver side door died yesterday. I do not have a service manual, YET! I say it is dead because I spent from 7pm to 1 am reading this forum and trying everything. From the fuse #13 reset to disconnecting the battery. I tore the insides out on the drivers rear panel to get access to the motor to be able to "hear" better and I could never hear anything that indicates that the motor assembly is even trying to engage. There is no attempt at the system to apply power. The cables look good as do the rollers for the door. All 4 fuses are good.
On a note, the door opens easier when the battery is disconnected than when it is connected, which leads me to believe the motor is bad. However, there could be a relay or some sort of control unit that I am unaware of. I do have a diagram of the assembly unit for the motor housing and there is a control unit on it (I was just curious if I took the unit off of the passenger side and hooked it up to the driver side to test it).
Any info on checking voltages on what connectors and what pins. No matter what your choice of attempting to open or close(buttons, dash, etc) the only way to get it open is brute strength, which my wife does not have.
Any Thoughts would be helpful.
