    Hi all,
    New here. Back in Nov 23, I had my rear passenger door replaced as the result of an accident. I just realized, because I usually just go to the drivers door when unlocking, that the new door doesn’t respond to my key button or the aftermarket fob for my command start. Does my key need to be reprogrammed to capture this new door or is it a physical problem from the auto body shop in stalling the new door?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated. TIA

    It could well be the wiring not connected in the door.

    Shop should have tested before release, but 'should haves' don't always happen

    I agree. Sounds like a bad connection.

    The doors don't have fob sensors- they rely on a centrally located part for that information.
