... dampness under the driver's seat.
It sounds like a wet CLU (Central Locking Unit) issue.
If you find dampness:
• Disconnect the battery
• Remove the driver's seat
• Disconnect the CLU and remove from floorboard
• Open the case and remove the printed circuit board
• Place the PCB in a shallow dish and cover with Isopropyl Alcohol (rubbing alcohol)
• Shake it and give it about 10 min immersed
• Let the PCB drip-dry and then air-dry (don't use forced drying such as heat)
• Once completely dry, reassemble everything.

Happy Boxstering,
Pedro
