Default Door Handle Touch Sensor (G415) issue

Hello, everyone!

Does anyone know how complex to replace the Door Handle Touch Sensor (G415)?
Any coding is needed after the installation?

I suspect I have the battery drain due to that issue. My driver side stopped working and when I left the car like that for a week, strange things happened:
1. When car get locked, the flash light is flashing, but only for about 30 sec. or so. After that it is no longer flashing at all.
2. At some point it was just constantly up. – I do not know what it would mean.
3. But after that I’ve check the battery and my level was only 50%. Had to charge it.

Anyway. Did anyone replaced that sensor? Any tips greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot!!!

Wit best regards,
Victor.

Needs a whole new door handle that will need to be painted.

second hand is a false economy for door handles

no coding needed it's just mechanical work
