Question Keyless Go is malfunctioning on driver door – please HELP!

I hope that someone could shed some light on a problem that I began experiencing with Keyless Go. The problem seems to be pretty straight forward. The driver door does not unlock when I pull the handle with key in a pocket. The door locks without any issues. The car starts well by pressing keyless go button on the gear shifter, other 3 doors unlock and lock just fine. The only problem is unlocking the driver’s door. Could someone give any insight on what maybe wrong with the car?

Thank you in advance.

More than likely the switch has gone bad in the door handle itself.

Is there a way to replace the switch? Or do I need to replace the entire handle?

Thank you.
