Default 2004 sliding door wiring diagram?

Does anyone have the wiring diagram for the power sliders? Specifically the wiring in the left sliding door where the module is. Thanks.

The module is inside the sliding door. What is the problem that you are having?

It's a bit of an unusual problem. I bought the van used with the left slider not working (stuck shut). Neither inside or outside handles will open it. The van doesn't have power sliders, but upon opening the inside door panel, it turns out someone replaced the door with a power slider. All the wiring and module are in place and apparently functional.

I cannot get the door latch to release. Pulling on the manual lever (the one the handle cables are connected to) doesn't release the latch. But if I push on the door out hard enough to deflect it a bit, I hear the electric latch actuator pulling it closed. The electric and manual door lock functions operate OK.

I need the diagram so I can attempt to activate the power latch in the direction of unlatching. Can't think of any other way of getting the door open so I can replace the latch.

You are going to need to remove the door panel and try to open at the latch. the panel will come off with a bit of work.

You're not making sense. I said I already have the inside door panel off and cannot release the latch by moving the latch lever. What other "door panel" are you referring to?

Anyway, still looking for the diagram of the left power slider if anyone has it. Thanks.

I was referring the sliding door panel, but since you have already remove the panel, you should be able to reach the latch to open the door and replace the latch assy.

As I said twice already, the lever on the latch assembly does NOT release the latch. I can reach the latch lever just fine, it just doesn't work. It moves but does not release the latch. That's why I can't open the door. And that's why I need to open it with the motorized latch actuator.

The moving part of the latch (that wraps the striker) is not accessible from inside the door cavity.

I do appreciate your trying to help, but I really need the diagram and nothing else.
