I have a similar problem and am trying to diagnose it... it might be a faulty door lock actuator....
not the DCM itself.

Relays on the door control module are worn out. Relays are $1.30 each. I would replace both on the one side, because one is for lock and another is for unlock, and if one is going, the other is sure to follow. That's what I did. Sure beats $278 for a door control modulde from a dealer.

Do a search in the archives for my name and you'll get a thread about this.
