Check the aux fuse box on battery for cable damage.

Check services splice on passenger side as they are known to corrode.

Both faults have write ups in ref library

Just noticed you are non UK so maybe different to UK spec cars. Not sure if it’s still same side of car or if it changes to other side

I noticed your lately responses. I had issues with the door locks. It use to lock one or two doors. And the rest remain unlock. Then start another strange thing, when I lock the doors it locks and unlocks by itself after afew Seconds.
I have checked all the cables that can be broken but there was nothing. Somehow there was low voltage on the powerline, which provide power to the door lock actuator. I fix it by connecting an extra cable to that line from door light which is underneath the door. It is working now.
And I removed the cloth tape today and looked for that joint. Of I am not mistaken it seems all fine. I found it on the left side, driver side for me. I will attach the photo of that joint.

Cheers

Usually its the bit under the boot (the rubber bit that flexes as the boot opens and closes) that is the area that breaks.

Photo of the bit I mean (showing the state of the first Galaxy I had when first looked inside) is attached.

The locking and unlocking can be down to either a faulty lock (can be worth looking from inside to see if one lock doesn't move, if so thats where your fault is) or more likely broken wires in the doors (again, this would be the rubber boot bit in the hinge area, can be easy to miss a single broken wire though so check carefully when your looking)

Cables look like they are in the same place even if the car is LHD rather than RHD,as they are on the lefthand side in mine same as you found. As long as that joint is attached together and not corroded you should be fine (it usually gets corroded due to a leaky rear washer pipe that runs though the same path to the rear hatch). Photo suggests its ok to me from here?
