WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 98 other vehicles, including the 2001 Saturn SW2, 2001 Saturn SL2, 2001 Saturn SL1, 2001 Saturn SL, and 2001 Saturn SC2. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: When overhead console on/off switch is in ON position, remote keyless entry transmitter or "B" pillar open/close switches may be used in place of overhead console open/close switch to initialize power assist operation for Power Sliding Doors (PSD). When overhead console on/off switch is in OFF position, PSD will not operate from "B" pillar switch and power assist operation will be disabled.

Disconnecting battery, removing Fuse Junction Box (FJB) fuse No. 6 (15-amp), disconnecting modules or removing power supply from some modules could cause PSD module to lose memory. PSD initialization procedure must be performed before PSD will operate under all conditions. Power sliding door initialization procedure is a learning process for modules to identify PSD full open position and PSD full close position. After power is restored to vehicle, initialize PSD(s) with following procedure:

Ensure both PSDs are fully closed, latched and unlocked. Ensure vehicle is in Park and fuel filler door is closed. Switch overhead console on/off switch is in ON position.
Press driver's and passenger's overhead console open/close switch to open driver-side and passenger-side PSD. After PSD is fully open and stopped, press driver-side and passenger-side overhead console open/close switches to close both PSDs.
