Repairing a door sensor can cost anywhere between $80 and $350. This price varies depending on the sensor type, vehicle model, and labor charges at the mechanic. Door sensors help maintain vehicle security and safety, particularly in fleets carrying expensive freight, by ensuring doors are locked or no one enters the vehicle without it being locked. If the sensor just needs to be reset or repaired, it’ll cost around $50-100 or less. But if the sensor is broken and needs to be replaced, that part alone costs $100- $200. Plus labor charges, varying by site and shop, and the total could add up to $350.
