Default Who Knows Where Remote Door Lock Module Is?!

Over the past few months my remote door locks have been getting weaker and weaker. I purchased new batteries and still the same. I then purchased new key fobs and still the same! I tried swapping batteries in all different fobs. I'm starting to think it was the module itself but i have no clue where it is. Is it the one behind the rear seat on the driver side? Anyone have any ideas of something i could try/

That's the vehicle security module. Here's a diagram of it I found online:

Have you ever heard of a module getting weak or going bad?! It really seems like my batteries in my key fobs constantly go bad..its super annoying!

What brand of batteries are you using in the fobs?

Those should be fine. I had similar problems with my Mustang when I bought some cheap Chinese batteries.
