I went out to investigate last night but of course everything decided to work perfectly. Unlocked and locked about 5 times over 10-15 mins and it worked every time lol. Thanks for the help. I’ll make sure to check next time it happens. Could it still be the actuators even though it is consistently both rear that fail to unlock and then unlock after a few lock/unlock cycles? Seems odd that they would both act the same way despite being separate parts.
