Condition
Some customers may comment that the power sliding side door is inoperative.
Cause
The power sliding side door optical sensor may have failed.
Correction
Follow SI Document ID 690381 listed below for diagnosis.
DTC 022
Circuit Description
The rear side door actuator control module uses an optical sensor to monitor the sliding door position at all times. The optical sensor requires a 5-volt
reference and reference return from the rear side door actuator control module. There are 2 signal circuits from the optical sensor to the rear side door
actuator control module. The optical sensor sends pulses through both signal circuits to the power sliding door (PSD) module whenever the sliding door
is in motion. The optical sensor pulses allow the rear side door actuator control module to calculate the position of the sliding door at all times. The
optical sensor signal circuits switch from 0.01-4.5 volts as the sliding door is moving.
Conditions for Running the DTC
A DTC 022 may be set whenever the sliding door is in motion.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The rear side door actuator control module does not detect the optical sensor pulses while the sliding door opening or closing.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The rear side door actuator control module will attempt to operate the door and stop if the condition is current.
^
The rear side door actuator control module sets DTC 022.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
All stored DTCs are cleared whenever the on-board diagnostic modes are exited.
Diagnostic Aids
^
Inspect the optical sensor connector and terminals for damage.
