Chances are one of the switches on the door is bad. You actually have to remove them each to determine which is bad. If they all check good, then I would have the body control module tested.

Need to use a scanner tool and check for B codes and check data
an OBDII reader will NOT access the data that you need
most common is driver door switch
use WD40 spray switch (door latch )
open and shut door few times
also you can do the same on all doors
good luck
