I have tried turning the power switch off before I even start the van. Sometimes when I go over a bump in the road the motor will turn off for a minute or two but will turn itself back on. The door does not try to open when all this is happening, the motor for the power slide door just keeps running. I looked to see if I could unplug it but it looks like it is directly wired.

I think I found out what it is. thankyou for all your help

You need to have someone or yoursef check the body control module with a compatible scan tool. Thats where the problem you are having resides. It may need a software update or replacement. You can also disconnect the battery for a few minutes, that will cause the BCM to reset and may fix it.

I checked on bulldogsecurity.com to get an idea of the placement of where this plug might be for the sliding doors. It says that it is a light blue wire and it says that it is in the passenger kick panel. What that may (probably) means is that when you open the door you might have to pull up the plastic trim that runs along the bottom of the door and try to find this wire. Trace it until you find the plug. I hope this helps. If not post again and I'll try to help further.

Look in your owners manual there is a procedure to reset the door controls. If that dosen't work maybe the motor is burnt out, it's in the left rear access panel.
SOURCE: Door will close but latch will not lock
I have this problem as well. The latch is getting stuck. I haven't been able to fix it permanently but you can get it to latch if you hit the door by the handle. It will release the latch and allow it to latch when you close the door.

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.
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.

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.
