How does the keyless entry work on a Ford Focus?
Looks brand new. However I’ve noticed a difference in the keyless entry locking. Prior to going into the body shop, if you tapped on the door handle pad twice the car would double lock.

This is how it works. Grab the handle anywhere on the door to unlock it… Use your thumb or finger on the Square once you’re out of the car and it will lock the door… I usually close the door and use my index finger on the square on the door handle to lock it.
