Could check wiring going from A pillar ( usually in rubber sheath ) into door frame for damage if it' s as you say , related with opening / shutting door .Strange one

It's either wiring or lock sensor, plus alarm goes off occasionally too. Diagnostic says open connection drivers door.

Since your last post ( Aug 22, 2022 ) previous reply still applies

Better if there was a replacement wiring for just a pillar since common fault.

Can the alarm be disabled,so can use remote to lock doors instead of key

Disabling alarm would affect any possible insurance claims for theft etc .. Why not fix any damaged wiring as many others do ?

Intermittent fault

There is usually a micro switch in lock assembly that sticks and can also cause this and can often be fixed by spraying lock assembly / linkage with the likes of WD40

Thought sensor in lock would be inside the locj mechanism itself
Posted Feb 10, 2024 (10 months ago)
Inside the door itself or from outside?

Inside the door , need to pull door trim to gain access
Posted Feb 10, 2024 (10 months ago)
Probably the most likely cause.
