Had this same fault on a honda with sliding side doors. Top tip of the day from me to you Peter and all your dedicated followers. Take the worn pitted copper plates off and flip them over and refit into the black holder. Clean the tarnish film off them and bingo you have brand new connections for the door to connect to.
Hard to break the habits from work but it's really the only time our own stuff gets fixed # when we're on holidays😂 great share peter happy New year to ya 👍
Simple and clear video 👏🏻 I've been doing that on all Vitos I've owned every 2/3 years, that and the rubbish Mercedes "hand brake" operated by foot are the only downers on these vans.
Well done Peter, nice quick fix , you should give yourself 30 Euros for that one , most garages would charge more than that , if only you could 😎👍👍💸💸💸💸
Hi Peter, thanks for the video, if those doors didn’t have a proper contact when closed, did it not show up on your dashboard by a flash red light (VAN) that there was a problem with the door or doors. Hope for your Reply…. Thanks
Hey Mattser, yes it was very intermittent but but it did sometimes show a door open but doesn’t indicate which on on this model. But only 2 of the pins are for the lock/unlock motor in each door & these contacts could be bad without affecting the door position contacts. If that makes sense 🤔
Great video Peter I wonder what fault the scan tool would have showing for that one.if you put that into Marc garage they would have cost you a few hundred just to look at it
The video is excellent. But many of your viewers are from abroad and for me personally it is very hard to understand you. But anuway all other aspects of video are very good or excellent.
I have the sale fault on May vito w639 2011. With automatic cloosing Il Open all the Doors exept the passegger's Door. Then It close Only the drivers door.

Thank you definitely worth the video cheers
Hopefully it will help you out Scott 🤞🤞

It probably wouldn’t have stored a fault, just shown one of the sliding door open 🤔🤔
I must actually take a look though tomorrow & let you know 😉👍
Good video but I got a sticky pin that doesn't move fully could I open the rubber and spray WD 40 in or would it short out the central locking
Not at all, spray it with WD40 & see if it Free’s out 🤞🤞
Hi Peter thanks for this tip worked on my viano 08 model ,I just wanted to know if you could send me a workshop manual for viano w639 2008
That’s great that the video helped you out 💪💪 but I’m sorry I don’t have workshop manuals 😔
Eish ok thanks man
Will try what you did.. now I lock from the inside the manually lock the driver door.. 😅
The pins & plates do wear but a good clean generally works 👍👍
@@kennedysgarage3281 will get sandpaper and do so.. before contact cleaner spray does the trick.. but it doesn’t work anymore. Need the sandpaper..
@@flyingdragonhk good luck with it 🤞
You know that thing with the six little boxes on the side door what the big circle above it? The ring
The thing I cleaned with sand paper??
@@kennedysgarage3281 above the base plate (opposite the contact pins) the circular ring made out of rubber
@@seinebabbas3586 off hand I’m not aware of it, sorry 😞
