Exclamation Keyless entry issues

I recently bought a 2010 tl tech, the driver door is supposed to beep and unlock with I touch the inside of the driver door handle. The door beeps but does not unlock, when hit the unlock button on the key fob it still does not lock have to pull the key out and unlock the door. I feel stupid asking this question but what am I doing wrong? I have tried to research this and could not find any answers.

How good is the battery in your fob? Perhaps there’s enough juice to passively make the car aware it is near, but not enough when you push the lock button? If it’s not that, it’s likely an electrical issue. Does it unlock when you touch the passenger door handle?

I'm not sure how good the battery is, I have not changed it since I bought it. The passenger side door and both back doors open. I will replace the battery today and report back.

A new battery for the key fob did the trick. Thanks for the suggestion.

Glad it worked out and wasn’t expensive.
