The door and trunk locks work using air pressure and vacuum. There is a unit in the trunk under the foam on the passenger side, maybe that's not working properly. There is the possibility that it has got wet due to a leak somewhere allowing water to get into the well that it sits in. If there is water you should be able to see it just by lifting the trunk mat and looking between the foam and the side of the well. There is no drain on this well so it slowly fills with water.
If the lights flash the fob is working and if you have no other problems the battery under the hood is OK.
