Hi! My name is James Koorey. Today I will give you a step-by-step tutorial on how to repair a 2005 Honda Odyssey minivan sliding door middle roller.

I bought the roller from the Honda dealership for under $50 and spent 30 minutes repairing it.

Don't be afraid to do this yourself with some basic hand tools.

    Super helpful--thanks for the video! I would suggest anyone doing this to quickly disconnect the negative battery terminal after you get the door in the right position, but before you attach the cables to the new roller. I watched in horror as the motor somehow got activated as I was trying to attach the cable to the roller, and it reeled the cable in, which meant needing to tear apart the inside to get the door roller motor, turning this 20 minutes project into a multi-hour one. I disconnected the battery for the second door, followed the video, and it took literally 18 minutes start to finish.

    Just did this fix today! Not so bad after all. Pointers for those doing the fix: * Open the door about 6 inches, and then turn the door power off. This is far enough to get at the mechanism. With the power off, you can easily move the trolley later. * I used the box from Amazon to cushion the door an a floor jack. worked fine. * Remove the slider cover, * after removing the E-Clip, use a iron rod to extend the hammer's reach and you can easily tap the pin out without removing the fixed part of the mechanism from the door, thereby not messing with the door's slignment and saving a great deal of hassle. * After removing the pin, slide the trolley towards the rear of the vehicle (no power needed, you turned that off), about halfway down the track is the best place to remove and re-apply the cable ends. * Before replacing the trolley in the rail, tie a piece of string to hold the spring compressed, you can cut this away later, but it makes it much easier to get the pin back in. * Use the iron rod to extend the hammer's reach to seat the pin again. * With the door is mostly closed, the track cover is easier to remove and replace.

    Follow up to my previous comment - watched this video once, ordered the part, then watched it again and performed the steps with you once the roller arrived. Super straight forward. Thanks so much for putting this together. My one comment to anyone else...the cover part that he pulls off with the window down...it slides forward towards the front of the car, then off. I tried to just pull mine off and ended up cutting my hand. Slide forward, then off.

    I just wanted to say thank you for such an excellently prepared and narrated video. I replaced this part on both of my slider doors yesterday. Because of your instruction, the entire job took me about an hour to finish both doors. I am especially grateful for the explanation of the real amount of time this job took you. It gave me the confidence to try this on a Sunday afternoon. Each one of these would have been a thousand dollar repair at the dealership. Your instruction just saved me $2,000. Thank you.
  • My wife gave me an ultimatum to fix the sliding door on her '08 Odyssey and this video was extremely helpful. The steps were laid out so nicely in the video that for brownie points I went ahead and replaced the other side and promptly told her about my pro-activity. Thanks again for posting!
  • Worked great. Ditto on the comment about removing the pin without unbolting the assembly from the door. I braced the door and then used a C clamp to press the pin out. No hammering and no alignment required later. Thanks again!

    Thank you for a very clear and helpful video. Reattaching the cable was the hardest part, but we finally got it done. Door is working great!
  • @joelbeck4249
    Thanks for this great instructional video. Just changed one out on our van, and what a difference. And, doing it myself saved a good chunk of change, too! I appreciate your sharing this with us online.
  • @stvbrwn8
    Our passenger side door started doing that so we just stopped using it and now the driver side door is doing the same thing. I was dreading having to fix it but it looks pretty simple. Thanks for the concise video, extremely helpful. Your son did a great job filming, too!
  • @drummerboy2521
    Worked excellent for me. Changed both sides real fast in less than an hour, greased them too. Thanks for this instructional video.
  • in 2020 your video still saving us time and $$!! Thank you for creating this. I followed others' suggestions and popped that pin out without removing the bracket from the door.
  • @PhiloSage
    Best video I've seen so far, you caught all the steps the others missed. Thanks for the walkthrough!
  • @cwjgsb8367
    Thanks James! I replaced the roller assembly on my 2006 Odyssey in 45 minutes, just like you said. Great job!!!
  • @MrKinetik
    Thanks for posting this. This helped me fix my driver side door on my 2007. The hardest part was getting screws out that were too tight or stripped. The tips about the sliding door placement are major!
  • @rileymiller8116
    You nailed it man!! Thanks! Took me 35 minutes. Gonna do the other one tomorrow. I did nick the side of the van with the panel tab, but I can’t believe how easy that was.
  • Great video - thanks for all the guidance, help & tips!! I completed the repair & couldn't have done it without your video & the below supporting comments. The cardboard scraps really help protect the paint. I used a hydraulic floor jack to support the door since the pin was a bit difficult to remove - I had to unbolt the bracket from the door. I traced the bracket location on the door with a silver sharpie for alignment reference. I purchased the Genuine Honda 72561-SHJ-A21 roller assembly (left) on amazon.
  • @CinKoDel
    Alright guys ;) Just did both of mine, video definitely help me and thank you a lot, I saw the video of some guy tearing apart his entire van and thought to myself there's no way I need to do all of this.. I was able to get both doors done in 45 minutes together but I didn't unbolt them I simply knocked out that center pin and it went easy as pie. For anyone wondering I put a crowbar upside down on the center pin after I remove the lock clip and hammered the Crowbar to pop the pin out the bottom. Alright guys... im out...lol Seriously thank you!
  • @davidb4509
    This was EXACTLY what I was looking for. THANK YOU!!!
  • Your video was exactly what I was looking for! Very clear and helpful. Thank you for taking the time to make it! I also appreciate you making it family friendly.
  • @colleenroth9167
    Thanks James and JJ for the video. I'm not very mechanically inclined, but with the help of your video, we got 'er done!
