Initialize the Electric Sliding Door

The Peugeot 1007 is fitted with powered sliding doors. After a battery disconnect, weak battery, or if the door is operated by hand, the system can lose its reference points and the door may not open/close automatically. Use this DIY procedure to re-initialize the door control so one-touch and anti-pinch functions work correctly.

Before You Start

• Charge the 12 V battery or keep a charger in supply/maintain mode. Low voltage can interrupt the learn cycle.
• Make sure nothing blocks the door track and that the rubber seals are clean.
• Work on level ground with the ignition key available. Keep children and pets away from the doorway.

Initialization – Left or Right Door

1. Switch the ignition ON (engine not running).
2. From inside the car, press and hold the corresponding door button (on the dashboard or B-pillar) to command a full close. Keep holding until the door reaches the fully closed position and you hear/see the latch secure.
3. Release the button, then press and hold the same button to command a full open. Keep holding until the door reaches the fully open position and stops.
4. Repeat one more complete cycle: hold to close fully → release → hold to open fully.
5. Finish with the door closed. Switch the ignition OFF and wait 10 seconds.
6. Test one-touch operation using the interior button and the remote. The door should open and close smoothly without stopping mid-travel.

If the Door Stops or Reverses

• Anti-pinch likely activated. Check the track, lower roller, and seals for debris; wipe with a damp cloth.
• Lubricate the metal guide rail lightly with silicone spray (avoid the rubber seal and the belt cable).
• Repeat the full initialization cycle from the beginning with a good battery voltage.

When to Re-Initialize

• After disconnecting or replacing the battery.
• After manually forcing the door open/closed.
• When the door only moves in small steps or beeps without completing travel.

Safety Notes

• Keep hands clear of the door edge while learning anti-pinch limits.
• If the door fails to latch: check the striker alignment and the rear latch area for obstruction.
• Repeated failure after cleaning and re-initializing may indicate a worn roller, latch microswitch, or cable issue — seek professional inspection.
