This problem is also duplicated when the door is locked from the passenger side and or by key on the passenger side.
Is there a specific switch that times the vacuum pump in the system?

if there is a leak, either pressure or vacuum at any of the elements, the pump will run excessively, there may be a leaking actuator somewhere
