Sunroof seems to work fine, keyless go unlocks when i put my hand inside the handle but it doesn't lock when i put my hand on top of the handle or when button on handle pressed.
and power liftgate obviously doesn't work, soft close works.

Did you or anyone else work on the left rear door?

What do you mean by "soft close"?

That i dont know, got the car few months back with water damage. left rear door locks and unlocks fine with keyfob or buttons inside, but i do get the error code.
I meant soft close on rear liftgate. when i close it by hand not all the way the actuator will pull it and close it all the way

My buddys tail lamps backup lamps and license plate lamps wont turn on. I did a scan with mbii and got the codes respective to not working lights. i also got a rear sam code. So i opened and took out the rear sam and seen some corrosion on a few connectors. I went ahead and ordered him a new rear sam and will install it tomorrow.

Since youre not getting a rear sam code than it should be fine.
