keyless remote or door actuator?

ok here's my problem, every now and then when I try to unlock my door using the keyless entry the locks on both doors (driver and passenger) wont come out. Is it my remote or is it the door actuator?
At first I think it's the driver side actuator, but when I think about it, if it's really the actuator then the passenger side should work right? since it's not so now i'm guessing it's the remote?

what do you guys think? I dont wanna spend $90 to get inspected at honda.

Have you tried replacing the battery in your remote? If you can lock/unlock the car from the interior door lock switch, then the actuators should be fine.

I replaced the battery on the remote two weeks ago. I can lock/unlock the car from inside, so is that mean the actuators are ok huh?
do you think by getting a new remote solve the problem?
