doop popper won work

ok let me explain, my drive side door wont open when i press the handle, it actually like it locks instead of open now the locking button works just fine.
i used star and the door motor popper works fine but it seems as is not recognizing the key. Mind you is only with that door, the rest of them work just fine, opening and locking.

has anyone ever had this issue, its like if that specific sensor got disprogrammed. i might just end up taking it to the dealer, unless someone gives me a result with the star comp.

Sounds like you have a bad switch in the handle, which means you get to replace the entire handle. Not a bad DIY job...it's documented on here somewhere.

Dont say that,Mine just started doing the same thing. All doors work fine but hte driver door open button on handle beeps once and locks doors instead of opening them.It has been raining for 3 weeks here and I figured it was just water that got in the handle.

Can the handles be swapped from driver to passenger side?I would liek to see that DIY on the repair as I didnt find it in the searches jsut found the complaints only on it.

Search "door handle DIY"....

I didn't notice the OP was asking about the E63... my comments were for E55, but the diagnosis may still be the same for the later model cars as well. Caveat emptor.
