Apparently, you fail to understand that half of the locking system (either the "lock" or "unlock" circuit) is connected to the vacuum reservoir at all times. The significance of that fact is that a leak
anywhere in the system will leak atmospheric pressure into the reservoir. Any notion that the problem
has to be with the reservoir is erroneous.

Of course there is a problem with
vacuum storage. But that doesn't necessarily translate to
a vacuum reservoir problem.

Door lock troubleshooting can be accomplished by simply isolating the actuators. No special tools required.
