My drivers door sometimes wont unlock from the remote, not a major problem but I'd like to sort it. All the car is dry as I've taken preventive action and checked recently to verify that everything was still good. I've , seen reference to wiring in the flexible boot as the cause, has anybody got any info as to what colour wire to check? Any other suggestions welcome.

Potentially dry joints on the door lock control module, as another suggestion.  Solder on the pcb breaking down after years of door shutting.
