I had a weak battery and it was why my door wouldn't react to the remote. If not the battery could be the key itself. If not that then its the door itself. I think its a simple fix and will be either the key/battery!

All The Best. L.G.N.M

no i know its the actuator motor because mine burned out completely and it wouldnt work at all wit the remote. i could only open the door with the key. so i took it to the dealer and they told me its the door actuator but they said they'll fix it for 500 bucks... i went on ebay and bought a actuator motor but its 2 powerful and it rattles a lil bit... kinda annoying.... so i wanna put it the actual thing. by the way those actuator motors are only like 1-2 bucks each.
