There are a couple of reasons why the door lock on your Honda CR-V might be making noise. To figure out the issue, you'll need to narrow it down. Does the noise happen all the time, or only when you're locking or unlocking the door? Would you describe the noise as a buzzing or a grinding sound? A buzzing noise is usually linked to an electrical component that might be failing, possibly the source of the sound. However, if you're hearing more of a grinding or "clunking" sound, it's likely due to gears grinding during operation. Before checking the wiring, it's recommended to inspect the door lock actuator as these are known to have early failures in the CR-V.
If there is a faulty wire connected to the door, it could result in the door automatically locking and unlocking by itself.
