Rear SAMs

Yes of course I have the electrical issue from some moisture getting the tricky electrical component(s). I am not 100% sure from where and to what the moisture has come from and gotten into.
I know moisture has gotten in from my 3rd brake light cause the seal had separated and filled the two red buttons in the trunk with water, the close trunk and the close and lock everything buttons.
The issues range from remote lock/unlock working strangely, the door locks not working, trunk not working, the radio intermittently working, and something causing the battery to drain. Battery is fine but sometimes something causes a drain on the battery and have to jump charge the battery.
I know the SAMs can get what and cause some of these issues.
if someone can send me a pic or vid where the rear SAM is located also the front one so I can check it also.

thanks.

I understand the locking system and the what you are referring and I appreciate your reply but my issue is definitely moisture getting to electronics issue.
The locking system as far as the pump or the central vacuum system has been checked and is ok.
I have been told it is most likely moisture getting to electronics because there was dampness and evidence of moisture. that is something I can check out myself I just was needing to know if the locations are the same as the 220.
Front is under the hood if the same and rear is under the rear seat also if the same.
