Central Locking Dead, Relay Groaning, and Even More

My '95's central locking has been hit-or-miss for quite a while now, but has completely stopped working.
I pulled the locking module under the dash, and resoldered in case there were cold solder joints and cleaned the contacts (no change) - I do get relay clicks from it when I depress the lock/unlock sw, so I guess it's OK
At the same time, I'm hearing a groan from the yellow interior light relay (the time-delay one with the 555 chip in it) every time any door switch is activated
and
When I select Reverse, my pictogram shows my hatch is open (it's not)
and
I noticed the passenger side interior lower panel lamp glowing faintly with all doors closed
I've seen several posts where central locking problems seemed connected to the yellow relay, so I'm wondering if a "door open" signal may be what's keeping the system from locking(?)
