Arkana Door Lock Fault

I'm beyond frustrated! My 2023 Renault Arkana hybrid is playing up. The door contact signal seems faulty. Now the blasted thing won't lock or unlock automatically! Mileage is at 66192 km. Any ideas before I lose it?

Ugh, sounds familiar! Had a similar gremlin with my old Audi A3. The automatic locks went haywire because of a dodgy door sensor. Have you checked the cable and plug connections to the door? Might be a loose or damaged connection.

A dodgy door sensor, eh? Where exactly do I find the cable and plug connections to check? I'm not the most mechanically gifted person.

Honestly, it's a pain to get to. You'd need to remove the door panel. Considering it was the sensor for me, I'd take it to a workshop, save yourself the headache. They can diagnose it properly. Was an easy fix for them!

Right, workshop it is! Thanks for the insight. Turns out it was indeed a defective cable/plug connection. Cost me 95€ to fix! Appreciate the heads-up about the door sensor!
