Driver's side door closing

rampante75 · 14th June 2021, 20:14

Pressing the remote control does not open the door for me, I have to open it with the key. To close they all close I tried to change the lock but nothing. Has this ever happened to you?

Inside the door, it is the part that the cables and wires connect to.
