    I think I found the problem in my car. The switch on the driver door seems to not be working properly. It car passed the light test... Since the interior light was turning off when I would close the door. I tried to press the switch manually and it worked. I guess I will need to replace that switch.

    My car is behaving similarly. The lock buttons seems to work 100% of the time, but the unlock buttons only work sporadically, even if I'm right up against the car. I'm guessing the fobs are just old and going bad? The buttons of the fobs do light up for both lock and unlock, so maybe the problem is elsewhere?

    When did you last replace the battery in the fob.

    As soon as I noticed the problem, but the new battery didn't improve anything.
