Equinox door lock unlock issue

Hello, I'm having a strange problem with my 2019 Chevrolet Equinox diesel. The doors just won't lock or unlock anymore, whether I use the key fob or the button inside. I've checked the fuses, and they seem fine. Any ideas what could be wrong?

A 2019 Chevrolet Equinox diesel is experiencing a problem where the doors won't lock or unlock using the key fob or interior button. The issue is suspected to be related to a faulty door contact signal or defective sensor cables and plug connections. It is advised to have a workshop diagnose and fix the problem, which was confirmed to be a defective door contact signal, and the issue was resolved.

That sounds familiar! I have a Chevrolet Equinox as well, though I can't recall the exact year. I had a similar issue a while back, and it turned out to be a faulty door contact signal. It's like when a lightbulb filament breaks, the whole circuit goes down. Did you check the car sensor cables or plug connections?

Thanks for the quick reply! Can you tell me where I can find the door contact signal cable or plug connections to inspect them? I'm not very experienced with car repairs, so any guidance would be appreciated.

Given your level of experience, I'd recommend taking it to a workshop. From what you've described, the cable or plug connection of the component is likely defective. They can diagnose it properly and fix it. In my case, it was a similar issue with the door sensor. Better safe than sorry when it comes to electrical components!

Okay, thanks for the advice. I'll take it to a workshop and have them check the door sensor and connections. Just got it back from the workshop, and it was indeed a defective door contact signal. Cost me 95€, but at least it's fixed!
