It seems my keyless entry buttons don't like daylight (same with hands free lift gate).
In my garage, or when in lower light, pushing the door button invariably locks the doors. Same with putting my hand into the handle to unlock).
But when in good daylight, it's about 50/50 I can use touch to lock the doors and about 75/25 to unlock them.
The keyfob buttons works fine.

is this normal? Is there a sensitivity adjustment?

Thanks!

 

How are you locking it?
normal lock?
passive lock?
Superlock?

 

Using the indented touch button on the door handle. When it works. When it doesn't I use the key fob.

 

Maybe I asked it wrong.

Out of the three locking choices you have, which choice are you using?

normal lock?
passive lock?
Superlock?

How old is your main battery?

What year model is your D5?


( note with any Land Rover, when strange things happen, 9 out of 10 times, its time to change main battery)

 

Sorry, i use passive lock. Battery is a little over 2 years old and stays above 12 v when parked. Also, since the lock operates properly in my darkened garage, which is where the suv has remained off the longest, it's not likely battery related. It's a 2020 7 passenger.

 

I highly doubt light and dark has any effect on it.

Try fresh battery's in your key fobs. I know you don't use key fob buttons, but if your key fob is not in correct range and or strong enough signal, it could be causing the issue.

 

I'll try that.
I don't really see how light would affect it, but the fact is it works fine when in low light and only is a problem when in daylight.

 

what are these different types of locks and how do you operate them

 

While I’ve not owned my D5 long, I’ve found the touch to lock can be persnickety. Touch to unlock isn’t an issue

 

Depends on your model.

The Iguide app explains the modes pretty good.
