'Sounds like the actuator is in need of replacement. Had same symptoms with my D3. £45 and 20mins work and all was well again. Not sure how much actuator will cost for RR but someone may have one lurking in a box somewhere or you could try Dan at Duckworths.

More likely to be a dodgy switch, they are not exactly in the best place to ensure that water doesn't sit on/in them.... and we know how good the L/R seals are

Another thing it may be worth trying is to check the lock mechanisms are clean and lubed up, you can try WD40 initially but if it works use something more permanent. Another way to check if it's a mechanical 'friction' issue is to push on the lower tailgate (towards the front of the car) a little and then press the button. Mine was doing similar and some white lithium grease sorted it for the remaining 3 years I had the car.
