Door locks seem to lose power when either pushing interior or keypad lock/unlock buttons

Where do u think that would be. Roughly

So ur sayign remove dash and check back there? Behind temperature controls, or behind steering wheel area?

I tried looking around without removing to much. Cant really see alot. But I did try messing with the keypad and interior lock/unlock button. 1) I have to hit unlock twice on keypad to unlock all doors, it seems that after unlocking and locking multiple times I can tell that as soon as I hit unlock the first time of round 3-4 of unlocking door that the drivers door lock only half opens. Then pressing a second time all the other doors only half unlock. 2) with the interior I presses lock/unlock and after about 3-4 all simultaneously inly unlock halfway. Occasionally I have to press unlock multiple times to get it to register I hit it. I can only compare it to a low battery where the lights dim, they have minimal power and arent functioning fully.

Will it give out completely or will it maintain the weakening. Cause I dont really wanna rip out my lower console and then still not fix it and have to take it to a shop anyways. If it will maintain and not completely stop then I leave it be and get it to a shop at a later time. But if it going to fail shortly I might as well just take to a shop cause I been scouring the internet for a picture or guide for fixing it/ understanding what I looking for.

Scan tool? As in a code reader for the port under the steering wheel? And would this be covered by the Suzuki warranty?

Awesome. Thank you much.

I had the same problem with my Suzuki XL7 2008. After 2 years of owning it the locks seemed to work sometimes. For several years now I have had to manually lock and unlock all doors as none of them work. It even effected the back hatch which I spent hundreds to replace. I feel this was something the manufacturer was negligent in and I was told by my mechanic it is a common problem in Suzukis and that the mechanisms were rusting out. For this reason I decided not to follow through with the costly repair because I would have to pay a couple grand every few years to replace all the locks. I wonder how many of these cars are experiencing the same thing. I have also had a problem while driving and the air bags went off with no explanation. I was petrified and all they could offer was that this sometimes happens if the air pressure changes outside and we were getting ready to have a storm that day. I hate having to crawl through my car and manually unlock doors so people can get in. The only door I can open is the driver door by using the key in the lock, like in the old days. Anyone have any ideas?
