I have the same problem with my 01. My key fob fires work on a random basis. I think I may have a loose connection under the seat or the driver's door lock.

I also have this same problem with my 01 S.

Using the remote the thing make a noise like its locking then immediately unlocks.

I'm thinking a limit microswitch is not working as all the locks are making noise.
The durametric is also showing a code, something like "lock limit not achieved".

I did replace the engine, ignition and security electronics as a matched set from a dismantler as I managed to fry my engine computer.

I do get 2 beeps when I lock the drivers side manually with the key.

Sounds like your Key FOB buttons are failing.

Look for Particlewave's fix for this in the DIY section. He has also fixed them if you send them in to him.
