Where do the cable go on a Honda Odyssey sliding door?
You should cut the cables where they go into the van at the front and back of the roller track, and then at each side of the roller bracket on the door. If the cable ends pop out of the roller bracket hang onto them, you might want the nylon bushings on them if you ever put in new cables (see instructions).
When did the Odyssey passenger side cable break?
Our 2011 Odyssey cable broke on our passenger side door yesterday. I am pretty sure it got damaged a couple years ago when my wife side swiped a post and we paid a body shop to fix the door. There was issues and they had to take it to the dealer to get it working again.
Why is my Honda Odyssey sliding door not working?
The cable must be tangled up in the door motor spool unit and jamming the spool. If the spool is able to turn it should still be possible to open the door manually (motor will turn). On my door the cable was all twisted up and wound around the spool after it failed so I have to remove panels before I could get the door open.
Why did Honda replace the light cable on my Odyssey?

How long has Honda Odyssey door cable been broken?
Broken again (exact same side) in June 2019. 3years,5months. It is a completely negligent design. The cable is far too thin and is made out of the cheapest rusting mild steel. No competent engineer would do such a thing, unless of course the goal was to force honda customers into the dealer for a $1000 repair.

Where are the fuses on a Honda Odyssey?
Unfortunately there’s no way to remove the front bolt on the outer body panel without opening the door. If you have to take off the interior panels anyway it’s probably worth replacing the cables. Try pulling the No. 9 fuse in the driver’s side under dash fuse/relay box.
