CrosslandX Keyless Entry Failure

Has anyone seen this before? My 2020 Vauxhall CrosslandX diesel has developed a weird issue. The keyless access has stopped working, and I've got an error code stored. I'm thinking it's something to do with the door handle electronics. Could be a dodgy cable or plug connection, right?

Sounds familiar. Had a similar gremlin with my old BMW 3 series. Keyless entry packed in, and it turned out to be a faulty door switch in the handle itself. Did you check the door actuator, or just the handle?

Interesting, a faulty door switch... I've only given the handle a quick once-over so far. Where exactly is this door switch located? Is it part of the door mechanism?

Yep, the switch is usually integrated into the door handle mechanism. Honestly, tracing the fault and replacing it can be a pain without the right tools. Might be worth getting a workshop to take a look. They can pinpoint the exact issue.

Thanks for the advice! Took it to a local workshop and they confirmed it was a defective connection in the door handle. Replaced it for 95€, and the keyless entry is working perfectly again.
