Are my comfort access door handles broken?
Hello, new E70 owner here. I bought the car with some non-functioning comfort access door handles.
The front left, front right and rear left are not working. The rear right works fine though. I get some PGS error codes; A097 A0B7 A0A7 I assume these 3 codes are for the 3 doors not working? |

Not sure of the codes. But very common issue. Especially if the handles are warm to the touch.

I ordered some replacements comfort access door handles from AliExpress that I will swap in and see if they work. If not I will just live with not having comfort access. |

So I got my AliExpress comfort access front door handles today, and I can report back that both work!
I removed both the left and right old broken ones from the car. The electrical connector on the left/driver's door was unplugged (meaning it was probably causing battery drain issues for the previous owner). When I tried plugging it in nothing happened, totally dead. The right door handle was connected though, and also completely dead. I installed the new right door handle and it worked right away. But it unlocks and unlocks even when the door is ajar/open, this cannot be right? It should only lock/unlock when the door is closed, right? Finally I installed the new AliExpress left door handle and it also works, but this one only lock/unlocks when the door is shut. Which feels right. |

I got a second set of door handles (for the rear doors but they look exactly the same) and I get the same issue with the front right door.
The lock/unlock function is available even when the door is ajar/open. On all other doors it only works to lock/unlock when the door is closed. This seems like it is a problem with another component, like a switch in the door latch mechanism. |
