General Information
You can unlock and lock the vehicle without taking the keys out of your pocket or purse when your intelligent access key is within 3 ft (1 m) of your vehicle.

The system does not function if:
Note: The system may not function if the key is close to metal objects or electronic devices, for example keys or a cell phone.
Note: If the system does not function, use the key blade to lock and unlock your vehicle. See Remote Control.

Sylvia. Thanks for the information from the manual. However, this is a base model with no key fob or remote locking control only two ways to lock tgis fiesta... either inside at the console or outside w key at drivers door.
My problem is that the key mechanism on tbe door is turning but not locking or unlocking just does nothing at all. This is a repair issue. I was hoping someone could provide a door diagram or lock diagram w help to getting at the lock inside the door. I need to posdibly trouble shoot the door actuator as it has possibly disconnected from the rod or wiring or both. Thanks. Any diy help is appreciated. Dont wanna take to dealer. I think i can do it myself just need a little step by step and a diagram. Thanks!
I had this problem with my 2011 fiesta, The part of the door handle where the key goes needed removing, cleaning, and lubing. It is only held on by one torx head screw, and is not that difficult too do.
If you need more info. request my email.

I had both doors with the same problem. I replaced the actuators and everything works perfect now.

Either the handle is broken inside the door, or the clip that holds the actuating rod is broken. If it either of these is shouldnt take any more than an hour to fix.
