If even one of the door locks responds in normal fashion (but others don't), then the relays are OK. More likely that the lock actuator motors are misbehaving (an internal thermistor can cause problems, BTDT). And wiring into the doors might be a problem.

Dome light ---- could be a bad switch in the light assembly or any one of the four door jamb switches could be shorted. Or a wire has popped off one of the switches and is permanently wedged against ground somewhere.
