The same relays are activated by the switch and the FOB. So we know they are good and obviously the motor which locks and unlocks the mechanism is working.
So it would appear that there is some issue with the door control module itself or in the serial bus circuit to the door. I really doubt that there is any issue in providing the signal from the BCM.
OP, pull your dash DIC codes and I am sure you will see an issue related to this.
Most likely it is in the connection at the door inside the A-Pillar. It can be reached by pulling back on accordion boot and inspecting the connections at that connector. Common issue among the C5s.
Here is a link to help. Take a look at the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th pictures.

As you guys know, it isn't about being correct but getting thorough input on an issue. Many times I have forgotten to suggest things others have.
Performing diagnostics at a distance is always challenging. Especially since only a few of the OPs have any experience with electricals.

Sorry OP... back to your issue
