Most of the time the button on the remove goes bad. I would try a new one first. here are the wiring diagrams for the locks so you can see how the system works, also we can do a CAN scan to see if the BCM is bad which can cause this problem as well. You can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.
Here is how to change the BCM out as well in case you need it, you can get a preprogrammed unit by searching Google or Ebay. Check out the images (below). Please let us know how it goes.
The button in the fob was bad, it would unlock but not lock! Replacement fob, fixed it. Thank you
