Safrane Keyless Access Fault

Keyless access on my 1999 Renault Safrane (gasoline) has stopped working. Diagnostic scan shows an error. Suspect a defective cable or plug. Car has 137892 km. Anyone seen this before and know where to start?

Had a similar issue with my Safrane. Check the door handle sensor; that's usually it. Is it both doors, or just one?

Thanks! It's both front doors. Can you give me more detail on the sensor location in the door handle, and what to look for in terms of corrosion or damage?

Both doors points even more to the handle. It's buried in there. Unless you're really confident with dismantling the door and electrics, get a workshop to look. Could be a broken wire deep inside.

Thanks for the advice. I'll get professional help. Repair cost was 95€, which is fine.
