Powered closing doors don’t close from internal handle nor fob

[Harrizon]

I have the following issue with the powered sliding doors on a Caravelle. Both dash door buttons are flashing. The doors power open and close correctly from dash buttons. I can also open the doors from the external handle but neither door will close from the door handle. The doors won't open or close from the key fob.

The fault code indicates an issue with the anti pinch system (02366) on both doors but the I've checked one of the pinch strips and it seems to be OK as it measures 1.255K ohms which I believe is correct.

I was under the impression that the doors were controlled from separate modules in the rear wings so I'm not sure why both doors have the same issue.

Also, how is door handle pull to close the door detected when the door is open as there is no obvious connections to the van when the door is open.

Any guidance would be apricated as I'm not sure where to go next with this.

Thanks
Phil

Sorry but can’t help you with this but you have now got me wondering how the handles work when the doors are open!

There’s a second module inside the door that connects wirelessly (think it’s bluetooth) to the main module in the rear quarter panel
When the door is open they are right next to each other albeit separated by the van bodywork and door card

Bit more information on this. The doors will open from the key fob but not close. When the door open I hear a double relay click from the modules in the back, which I can't remember hearing in the past.

You can't open the doors from the dashboard buttons unless the ignition is on. Can't remember if this was the case before.

I have similar issues. My T6.1 n/s electric door will not operate from the dash / key fob / inner handle and outer handles. I can open it by holding the button down and switching on the ignition. I am guessing this points towards the door sender unit as all the mechanical components seem to work when I override the opening / closing on the ignition key. Does anyone know where the sender is located on the T6.1?
I found what I think is the correct sender unit 7LA 599 991. Any help would be appreciated.
