We only have 1 fob (transponder?). It will lock the doors but not unlock them. I have put in a new barttery to no avail. Where do I go from here? New fob or replace actuator?

Hi John,

Not the fob fault. It should be the driver door actuator or central lock control unit.

Does manual operation of locking and unlocking works well?
