Moisture is getting in there somehow. It may be related to where you park. If it were me I might consider using the professional fix. Put a piece of duct tape over the lock to keep it dry. Use the remote to unlock the door (you do have a remote key don’t you?)

Don’t use your door locks in the winter if you always park outside. It’s a standard Winter problem.
