Ford GT door handle keyless access failure

I've got a 2020 Ford GT with a gasoline engine and I'm running into a weird issue with the door handle. The keyless access has stopped working completely, and I'm seeing an error stored in the car's memory related to the locking system. I've checked the fuses, but they seem fine. Has anyone experienced something similar? My GT has around 37544 km on it.

That's a strange one. I haven't had that exact issue, but electric door problems on modern cars are becoming more common. Have you tried checking the cable and plug connections to the door handle? It could be a simple loose connection causing the problem.

Thanks for the suggestion! I was thinking it might be a connection issue. Do you know where I can find a diagram or guide to help me locate the cable and plug for the door handle specifically? I don't want to start pulling things apart without knowing what I'm doing.

Unfortunately, I don't have a diagram handy, and fiddling with electronics without proper knowledge can cause more harm than good. Given the symptoms and error code, it really does sound like a faulty connection. I think the best course of action would be to take it to a workshop, they will have the proper tools and expertise.

Alright, thanks for confirming my suspicions and giving me a dose of reality! I took it to a local shop, and they found a defective cable connection as expected. Repair cost was 95€. All sorted now!
