In humid areas, moisture and dust can affect the power door locks by:

Corrosion: Moisture can cause rust inside the actuators and wiring.
Dust Buildup: Dust and debris can clog the locking mechanism.

Preventive Measures:

Regularly clean the door seals and actuator area.
Apply moisture-resistant lubricants to the lock mechanisms.
Ensure that the door seals are intact and replace them if damaged.
