posted this in another thread with a similar problem where the "touch to unlock wasn't working on one of the doors after removing the door card to fix the rattling window switch and mirror control assembly that vibrates when you have your tunes cranking.

"Touch to unlock" on the drivers side door was not working but "touch to lock" was working on drivers and passenger side door, and "touch to unlock" was working on the passenger side door.

Just the "touch to unlock" not working on drivers side door.

Both key remotes working perfectly to lock and unlock the car. New batteries in both.

To fix this issue:

1. Wind down the windows (did this just in case nothing worked so I could unlock manually).
2. Open the bonnet (hood).
3. Lock the car with the remote.
4. Disconnect the negative terminal from the battery and leave it for 15 minutes.
5. Depending on the time of day, have a cup of tea or an icy cold beer.
6. Reconnect the battery and leave it for another 15 minutes.
7. Repeat step 5.
8. Unlock the car with the remote.
9. Lock the car with the remote.
10. Try "touch to unlock" on the drivers side door again.

Mine worked again after doing all of this.

Hope this helps someone.
