Hi have you tried disconnecting the car battery for 10 mins then re connecting to see if it reboots the door control modules bit like rebooting a computer also all the door control modules can be read with a diag machine to see if they are logging faults with the door latches and also the convience control module can be read with a diag machine to see if it is.
Hoping someone has some insight and can help me fix this issue.
