Car not unlocking when opening driver or passenger door

Suddenly having this problem with my Formentor VZ5:

When opening the driver or passenger door the car does not unlock.

The light of the button in the center console does go from orange (locked) to white (unlocked) but no unlocking sound and can't open the rear doors or trunk...

Have to manually press the unlock button on the center console again (even if it's white) to unlock...

Haven't changed any settings and every setting still seems correct. Any ideas what could be wrong?

The car was parked in a small storm this afternoon, a lot of rain. No damage and no water got inside... Could it be related... Don't know

Scanned with OBDeleven and can't acces the rear left and rear right control unit:

Then got a message to autocode the gateway list and this removed the 2 modules from the list.

So it seems both modules of the rear doors are broken...?

At the same time...?

Virtual pedal of the trunk also does not work anymore
