2001 Door Locks flicker (lock/unlock 4 times)

This is new as of last week.
I started the van and the door locks flickered like lock-unlock-lock-unlock very fast. Had a trouble-picture on the dash of a padlock.
Next, passenger power window didn't work for 3 days, then magically fixed itself.
Next passenger power sliding door stopped working, fixed itself after 10 minutes (it's done this before but only at -30C which is fine, it is summer now)
Then the starter made a screeching sound for my wife (i didn't get to hear it).
So seemingly unrelated electrical flakiness. Could this be the Ground I read about in these forums?
Any advise where to look is appreciated..

I have experience these very same issues on an intermittent basis. Are there any solutions for these issues.

this could as simple as a dirty /corroded/loose battery terminal.usually the ground bolt will make the lights flicker
