Default NEED HELP! door wont lock!

Sup guys,

So im pressing unlock/lock on my key but the doors/hatch do not unlock/lock. However, the lights are blinking so there is a signal. Can anyone tell me whats wrong with it before I have to bring it on the dealer next week?

Thanks in advance

Were you working on your car before this happened?

ya.. i had this happen w/ my passenger side earlier this week. windows and locks weren't functioning at all. check the clips in the door panels and behind the kick panels in the front footwells. I had to rapidly take the battery on and off a couple of times and mine worked again.

there are clip/connector things that are behind the kickpanels and the door panel that transmit the window/lock signals. make sure those are snug and connected.

Not sure if door locks need to be initialized. I know PWR windows need initialization after car battery is reconnected.

Also, I noticed that if you have any doors opened and try locking from either the transmitter or the door switch at that moment before closing any doors, the unlock function does not work from the door switch and the transmitter. You'll have to reset the door locking system by turning your ign. switch.
This happens every time with me when I lock my doors with my transmitter prior to my passengers shutting the right door.
