It sounds like the BCM is going out which controls the security and communicates with the BCM through the CAN. To confirm lets do a can scan by following this video. Also I have included how to replace the BCM in the diagrams below.

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
