Power sliding door does not operate except manually, even after resetting the "TAIL" fuse. There is a cable that comes out of the area of the door frame above where the sliding door rear latch catch is located. It seems like this cable should retract into the door frame. It does not retract.
There is a pulley system in the somewhere and I believe it is broken.

I have a 2006 SV6 with the power sliding doors. The problem that I found was with the contacts on the door ( They are called plungers) the movable pins were losing connection with the fixed part The plunger is very easy to replace if you can find one. The plungers are covered with a rubber cover and is held in place with 2 plastic pins. My Pontiac dealer could not even find one in his books or even a picture of one, and claimed that he had never had anyone come with a door problem. My Chevy dealer said that it came with a wiring harness that is not needed for $154. The cure that I came up with was to take the plunger block apart (it snaps together)and replace the rusted out springs then solder 3" wires to the end of the plunger pins (they solder easy) to the tabs that go to the plug(pop out the tabs or you will melt the plastic. It took about 45 min. now the doors work like new and will never loose contact again

Refer to Power Sliding Door Customer Concerns for diagnosis. Verify that all of the mechanical components of the PSD are aligned and operating correctly before you begin diagnosis of the electrical system. The electrical components cannot operate correctly if the mechanical components are not operating correctly.
I just checked out a 1999 Oldsmobile Silhoutte yesterday , same set up there is a cable inside hooked to a motor that opens the door. The one yesterday had the cable hanging out the back of the sliding door , does yours ?
Does it open manually ? There are electronics involved , sensors ,switches , a module an a electric motor .
The power sliding door (PSD) includes several interconnected electronic and mechanical components. Obtain a specific customer concern in order to efficiently diagnose and repair the PSD system. Begin diagnosis with a service writer. Ask the customer for as much detail as possible regarding the conditions under which a failure of the door was noticed. Always include the basic concern, such as "door reverses when closing". The following details might affect the performance of the PSD:
?€¢
Weather conditions, such as snow or heavy ice
?€¢
The van was parked on an incline.
?€¢
The van has been parked for a long time, which may cause a weak battery.
Refer to Power Sliding Door Customer Concerns for diagnosis. Verify that all of the mechanical components of the PSD are aligned and operating correctly before you begin diagnosis of the electrical system. The electrical components cannot operate correctly if the mechanical components are not operating correctly.
The amount of force necessary in order to reverse the PSD depends on the position of the sliding door at the time of obstruction. The PSD action may not reverse if the following actions occur:
?€¢
A corrosive track
?€¢
Ice build-up on the track (during cold weather)
The PSD control module is more sensitive to obstructions near the end of the sliding door close operation. The amount of force necessary in order to reverse the sliding door travel is less than when the sliding door started to close.
When the sliding door is within 2.5 cm (1.0 in) of the closed position, the door lock latch switch sends a signal to the PSD control module. The PSD control module determines that the sliding door is in the unlatched (ajar) position. This action causes the control module to apply full power to the cable motor in order to bring the sliding door to the fully closed (latched) position. The sliding door will close unless the force is greater than the cable motor at full power. The PSD control module de-energizes the cable motor and the clutch when the PSD control module receives a second signal from the door lock latch switch. The second signal indicates that the sliding door is fully closed and latched.

Hello
The
Engine and Automatic Transmission (not applicable to manual
transmissions) in this vehicles drive train are fully
electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM and TCM (Power
Train Control Module, Transmission Control Module). When a problem
like this or other drive-ability related problems occurs the computer
stores a record of the problem (there are of course some exceptions
to this, like the fuel pump, engine coolant temperature sensor and
MAF sensor for instance) in the form of a fault code in its memory,
to read these fault codes you must have the systems memory scanned
with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read you then must
perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and resolve the
problem(s) DO NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNTIL A TRAINED
TECHNICAIN HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO AVOID SPENDING YOUR HARD
EARNED MONEY ON PARTS THAT MAY NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. Also always
check fuel pressure for correct spec for your make and engine type.
