Skoda Kodiaq keyless access problem

I am experiencing an issue with my 2023 Skoda Kodiaq diesel. The keyless access on the driver's door has stopped working. There is also an error stored in the error memory. I suspect it might be related to the door handle electronics. Could this be a wiring fault? Has anyone else experienced a similar problem with their car door?

I have a similar Skoda Kodiaq, and I experienced a comparable issue with the keyless access on my driver's side door. The symptoms you describe sound very familiar. Have you checked the door switch itself? Sometimes, they can become faulty and cause the system to malfunction. It might also be related to a sensor issue within the door handle assembly. I would suggest examining the wiring and connections to the door handle module. Has the car been subject to any recent bodywork repairs?

Thank you for your reply. When you say wiring and connections, are you referring to the plug connecting to the door handle itself, or further into the door electronics? Did you manage to fix the issue yourself, or did you have to take it to a workshop?

In my case, the fault was located within the door itself, specifically a defective cable or plug connection of the component. I attempted to diagnose it myself, but without the proper diagnostic tools, it proved difficult. I would recommend taking it to a workshop. The error memory points towards a sensor issue, which often stems from a wiring fault. The door handle assembly is quite complex, and without proper expertise, further damage could occur. It is likely that the diagnostic report will indicate the precise location of the fault.

Thank you for the information. I took it to the workshop, and you were correct. It was indeed a defective cable or plug connection in the door handle. The repair cost 95€, and now everything is working as expected.
