    Question Passenger Door not unlocking via keyfob/button, but can be manually controlled

    Passenger door has suddenly stopped responding to keyfob. Will not lock/unlock via button in door rest in either the driver's side or passenger side door. I can unlock via key and mechanical lock at handle.

    All other doors are responding normally. Keyfob battery was changed with no effect. Car is '15 ES.

    Any idea what the issue is? Actuator or something else?

    So switches on either door and the fob don't unlock it but work for rest of doors? I'd take door apart and check that connector didn't wiggle off. If attached, I'd next than check connector with a DVOM to make sure it's receiving current. If that's good, check to see if rod attached to lock motor isn't jammed on something... otherwise, I'm betting on bad actuator.
