It worked again for about a week, then suddenly it stopped locking/unlocking again. Red light on fob still illuminated, so I tested the backup fob with a new battery, and found it wouldn't lock/unlock either. Then, strangely, I discovered the panic buttons on both still function.

Manual doorlocks still worked (both from interior buttons as well using the keyhole)

Holding the unlock button would not retract windows as usual.

I tried manually cycling the doorlock mechanisms themselves, and immediately after noticed that the interior automatic door lock switches would cause the doors to lock, then immediately unlock themselves if the door was ajar (this had not been the case moments ago). Closed the door, and the doors would lock as expected. Opened again, and again it would lock and quickly unlock. With the door closed, I used the interior switch to lock/unlock repeatedly about a dozen times. Opened the door again, and found that the automatic lock switch now would lock without immediately unlocking. Then, to my astonishment, I found that the keyfobs again would lock/unlock/roll windows.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad stuff is functioning again, but what in the world just happened? I'm wondering if any of what I described above might indicate something that needs a little TLC or attention....
