I have a 2001 Honda Odyssey and have taken the van to the dealer to get the power door reset.... $50. There is apparently a breaker of some sort (not the electrical fuse) that causes the door to stop functioning if it has a problem opening or something causes it to stick when you try to open it. AVOID THE $50 CHARGE and the wasted time of having this "repaired". To reset, I tried both of these suggestions below at the same time. I found these elsewhere online... not sure which worked, but the door is working again without a trip to the mechanic. Posts elsewhere indicated that this worked on both 2000 and 2001 Honda Odyssey vans.
Suggestion #1
1.) Disable the power door switch on the left dashboard.
2.) Remove the power door fuses located under the front passenger leg area.
3.) Manually open and close both sliding doors.
4.) Restore the power door fuses located under the front passenger leg area.
5.) Enable the power door switch on the left dashboard.
6.) Try opening the sliding doors.
Suggestion #2
Remove fuse #13 (clock) for 30 seconds or more from the passenger side fusebox. This will reset the door and the clock.

The sliding door on a Honda Odyssey can become stuck when objects are jammed in the rails or the motor fails. The doors are designed to close on their own which causes problems when the electrical components fail.

Try the answers for 2000 sliding power doors. I know they re-made the vehicle in 2000 but it might be relevant still.
To fix a sliding door on a 2005 Honda Odyssey, first, check the door track for any debris or obstructions that may prevent smooth operation. Inspect the door’s rollers and hinges for wear or damage; lubricate them if necessary. If the door is misaligned, adjust the alignment by loosening the screws on the hinges and repositioning the door. If issues persist, consider replacing the door latch or the motor for the power sliding feature.
A disconnected door handle linkage can cause your sliding doors not to open. The locking mechanism may not be fully disengaging, of which will cause your door not to open.
This happened to me - you need to reset the door. Just disconnect the battery for 10 seconds, and then reconnect. (make sure you know your radio code first - you are going to have to re-enter it) If your Honda odyssey is equipped with power sliding door. the driver side sliding door will not open because the gas tank is open and the sensor was activated. this is to prevent the door from hitting the hose while pumping gas.
