You want to check car battery when cold and after lying overnight prior to starting . Not when running and alternator charging as this will give a false reading of battery condition

I have a similar problem. Driver lock want lock or unlock using fob key buttons. When using the key I can lock all doors but unlock only driver door. Sometimes esspecially if I leave the car not used for a while then all door want lock. The problem is intermittent and also the dash buttons will behave the same way. I have check the door harness and replaced the door module, but no luck

Battery charging at 14+v is usually indicative of a low / dud battery

Get a CR2032 key fob battery from car spares not cheap shop as different thickness of battery may cause the cheap thin one to go under line and not make a proper contact
