I have a 2002 suzuki aerio sx 4-door. The doors will not unlock with the key remote but will lock sometimes with it. I have tried a differant key remote and still no luck. If I use the key on the door it will lock or unlock 1 or all the doors and hatch like normal. The way the doors work is when I use the Key on the lock it lets me unlock 1 or all the doors by turning the key once or twice How do I troble shoot this problem?

Troubleshooting the issue with the door locks on your 2002 Suzuki Aerio SX can involve several steps to identify the root cause of the problem. Here are some steps you can take to diagnose and potentially resolve the issue:

Check the Batteries: Make sure the batteries in the key remotes are fresh and properly installed. Weak or dead batteries can cause intermittent issues with the remote functions.

Reprogram the Key Remote: Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for instructions on how to reprogram the key remote. Sometimes, reprogramming can resolve communication issues between the remote and the vehicle's receiver.

Inspect the Key Remote Receiver: The key remote signals are received and processed by a remote receiver module in the vehicle. This module could be faulty or experiencing a poor connection. Check the receiver module for any signs of damage or loose connections.

Check Fuse and Relays: Inspect the fuses and relays related to the central locking system. A blown fuse or faulty relay can prevent proper functioning of the key remote.

Check Door Lock Actuators: The issue may be related to faulty door lock actuators, especially if the doors work correctly when using the key in the lock. Test each door lock actuator individually to determine if any are malfunctioning.

Scan for Error Codes: If there is a problem with the central locking system, it may be recorded in the vehicle's onboard computer. Have the vehicle scanned for error codes using a diagnostic scanner.

Check Wiring and Connections: Inspect the wiring and connections related to the central locking system, including those for the key remote receiver, actuators, and central locking control module.
