Do you hear the relay click inside of the door control module? If the relay is bad, you can supposedly swap the door control modules to verify, but you must put them back as they are not the same. Most likely, the relay in the module is the issue but check all the fuses first to be sure its not a power issue. I've never heard of the solenoid itself failing but its possible of course.

Time to open the door panel and use a meter to see if power is actually getting to the solenoid or not. If not, then a bad relay in the door module.

Mine did the same thing and it was the relays. Do yourself a favor and replace both the lock and unlock relays. They're cheap.
