Weird locking/unlocking issues

Thanks; checked the coaxial plug and connection is intact. Problems still persist, however.

Bit of a left field guess here, but when so many electrical problem occur at once perhaps its the ignition switch that's gone bad.

What codes did the dealer find?

Dealer only gave me a quote of the parts with P/Ns but not the codes.

Further investigation and findings:

Upon re-checking the 535 module under the seat, the fuse was found defective and replaced with new one.

Everything then went back normal (hoorah!) for few seconds, then it blew again (boo!).

After wasting 3 new fuses which immediately blew upon insertion, I gave up. Could it be:
1. Pinched/split open wire?
2. Faulty actuator(s)?
3. Faulty 535 module?

Would appreciate anyone's advice to pin point the exact cause.

You'd be amazed at what this stupid little thing can do when there's an issue.
The ign switch is cheap with some hours of labor from you...and can cause similar issues you have and a new one can solve. As much as I hate throwing parts at an issue It's cheap to do...and do fail quite often
