Power locks acting strange

I have recently noticed my 2017 F350 STX doing something odd. When I unlock the vehicle, with the keyless entry fob, the door unlocks, then quickly relocks. If I hit the unlock button again, the door unlocks and stays unlocked. Anyone have any idea what would be going on?

Button is sticking? if you have two key fobs, see if the issue is only with one of them.

I think there is a message out on that.. I however can't access my ford account here. They made me change my password this morning. Now I need like 12 digits, upper and lower case and a bunch of other crap.. I can't remember it, lol. I think the actuator gets replaced. Kevin

Is that the original battery in your fob? You might change that (using a name brand with a good stale date) and clean the battery and switch contacts while you are in there.

Cheap. Can't hurt.
