In all honesty & after reading the previous posts, have you tried to lubricate the hinge(s)/latch/etc. at all? All in all, it really doesn't matter what you use to lubricate it with. I've found keeping parts, regardless of what it is, lubricated tends to keep whatever was lubed working like new. Maintaining a vehicle isn't just oil changes & such, it's using numerous products to keep the doors/hinges/mpg's/etc. going strong and lasting as long as it can.

SOURCE: passenger side--manual sliding door will not open

i have not yet corrected the concern but have found the source. in this particular model the fuel door has a safety lock feature that keeps the door from opening when you are fill the fuel. I have found the lever broken on the switch now all i have to do is figure out how to replace it

My windstar was horrid for relays that needed to be replaced.... locate the relay(s) that control the power doors and replace them.

SOURCE: i have a 2000 windstar...the left sliding door

The door is not catching to lock the door shut. Find where it is not catching and see if theres a blockage or if something is broken.

SOURCE: 2002 Ford Windstar Error Code P1131 And P1151

the first o2 sensor is located just underneath the front bumper of the van, the second is located directly underneath the center of the van, kind of where the center console would be if you were inside the van. i hope that makes sense and i hope it helps.

1998 Ford Windstar. Swap liftgates from the same make and model just different years.

Two generations though, but you might be lucky if your 1998 is part of the 2nd Gen release. do you have a driver's side sliding door?
Second generation (1999-2003) Released in the summer of 1998 as an early 1999 model, the Ford Windstar was given a complete redesign. As one of the first Ford vehicles in North America to adopt the New Edge styling language, the redesign also was distinguished by the addition of a driver's side sliding door.

check adjustment of the door locking mechanism. It is possible that the door lock is jamming on the striker plate because it has fallen slightly

The driver's side sliding door of my 1999 ford windstar will not open. It will start to open but never slides. To passenger side works fine

Dear,

Please look for the door channel as it seems to have gone jammed and also look for the greasing the joints as well

this will surely solve it

thanx
