Drivers side Door locks

My drivers door started intermittently working and now the drivers rear is doing the same. Is it possible that both actuators are going bad at the same time.

You can lock and unlock all the doors from 4 different positions.
1. Fob.
2. Outside button on the front door handles.
3. Inside drivers door lock button.
4. Inside passenger front door lock button.
Do you get the intermittently non working problem from all four locations? If yes then actuators are most likely, If not faulty switch my guess.

EDIT
My apologies I wrote my response thinking I was in the 7th gen site, although some of it might pertain.

I am having the same issues. It started with the back door and then happened with the front door. One time they will not work and then they will start back working.

Sounds like a bad solenoid/actuator. Not hard to change out if it is.

Could also be something as simple as corrosion on connectors. The door panels are stupid easy to take off and inspect things.
