2015 Boxer rear door locking issue

Hi, new to the forum but not cars in general.
I presently have an issue with the rear barn door central locking with a new to me Boxer L2H3 campervan.
All other doors lock & unlock fine from the remote and the alarm sets. The rear barn door locks from the key only and I can hear no activation, or attempted activation of the motor when remote locked or unlocked.
I've checked the door loom for continuity (as the usual suspect in these cases) and all is OK, I've checked through the loom for continuity to earth and that's fine as well. I therefore suspected the lock so I've now replaced that with new - still not functioning but remains able to be locked from the key as before so mechanically it appears to be OK.
I've now done some !live" testing and found the following (all with ignition off) at the door lock connector.:
brown & orange/green both continuity test through to earth which (looking at the wiring diagram for the similar Ducato) surprised me as I thought they would be voltage supply and/or reversal contacts for the locking motor?
All others, with the exception of the black/mauve are open

When switched open & closed I get the following voltages:
red/black - 0v on open or close commands
orange/green - 12v open command; 0v close command
brown - 0v on open or close commands
black/mauve - 0v on open or close commands
blue/white - 2.1v on both open & close command (I suspect that this is a rear compartment light supply which isn't fitted in my campervan)

The above doesn't seem right to me as I'd half expected the volts to appear on red/black & brown as it switched with a permanent supply on orange green (supply with switch to earth).

As all the other doors work fine, I'm suspecting a break or bad connection somewhere in the cable between the rear barn doors and the sliding side door connector...unless it could be something to do with programming??

Any help appreciated

Many thanks. I'll try tracing through he wiring now that I can see the layout.
As all the other locks are working correctly and there's no break or fault evident in the door cable loom from 6218 (63 PARDB), and I've replaced the module 6218 with new, it seems to point towards an issue with the section of the loom from connector ICH1A to connectors E151 & E413 ...on wires 3 & 5 from terminals 7 & 8...just need to know where to find those connection E151 & E413!
As it a camper conversion, albeit professional, I wonder if a fixing has been driven through the loom or it's chaffed?

Been having another look around today but still not got to the bottom of this yet. However, that shot of the BSI FB looks the same as fitted to my Boxer and completely different to anything in the owners handbook!- see the attached
I'm also looking at fitting a reversing camera and the handbook indicates reversing light supply fuse to be 35, but above indicates F51, also associated with air con, power steering and a few other bits so one to avoid I think! I beginning to think I may just live with it for now and lock on the key until I pull the camera cables in...I might just pull another pair in with the camera cable and try to bridge/replace the wires that seem to be an issue?
Think it safer to tie the camera in to the 12v outlet supply on the dash and have a permanent power source with ignition on for the camera & display.

Thanks for that info.
I'm going to wire in to a switched feed with a piggy back fuse holder as you suggest for the monitor and take the feed to the camera from the reversing lamp wire in the rear post
It seems with the equipment I have that a reversing lamp trigger is also sent to the monitor via a single cable from the camera to activate the display.
The monitor also has a second video input for an additional camera to provide a full time rear view display which may be handy to incorporate in future so I can keep an eye on those tailgaiters who don't realise that i can't see them when they can't see me in my door mirrors! From what I've read, it seems the reversing trigger is to change the display priority to reversing camera on selecting reverse.
