Default keyless entry problems

I bought my 07 rio5 used. someone had already put a keyless entry on the car but only 2 of 4 doors actually lock properly. i was thinking about taking off the door panels and fixing the broken doors myself, but i dont know how the panels come off for one. and what to expect on the other side of the panel.

Why would you want to do that, the car is under warranty. I'd take it to a dealer and let them get their hands dirty....

Do the doors lock when you manually lock it?

look all over your door...remove all screw you see. Now look for all the hidden trap doors as i call them around the handles and what not that house screws underneath them. Take those screw out and pop the door panel off. Dont be afraid of it. Once you do that, you will know what you will have to tackle on the other side.

Either have to get a window crank removal tool or just take a flat head screw driver to pop off the clip holding it on.
