Hello,

It sounds like the issue is with the door jamb switch.
On this vehicle that switch is part of the door lock actuator.
It is likely the drive side actuator as that is the one gets used the most and likely to be more worn.
In order to access the door lock actuator, you will have to remove the inner door panel. Which is mounted by few screws and several plastic fasteners.
Here is a helpful guide:

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
