Just received my 04 Alphard G from Japan yesterday, and have come across alot more issues, than I was first made aware of ..
Most notably, my rear sliding door on the drivers side, does not automatically close/open at all (via remote, dash button, or opening with inside/outside handle), nor does the window go up or down.
I took off the door card and I got the door to automatically close for a little bit, and then it stopped completely again.
Checked all the wiring, the harnesses and actuators/motors ..but can't find the problem here.
The door also clunks very loudly, every time it brings the door in to latch and lock. I think the door just needs to be realigned though, which I will do tomorrow.
