It's always worth cleaning the electrical contacts in the door edge before investigating further/ Finish the cleaning with a light smear of conductive grease, Vaseline.

When that happened on mine it was the locking solenoid. I have a cable twixt door and frame, not contacts.

I am not familiar with the Broadway. If it is a cable through the hinge side of the door, my suggestion is pointless. Soory.  Keith

This happened to our Malvern - just got “ out of sync” because we opened lock from inside without using key . Sorted it out if lock when inside and open with key . May have to manually put step down a few times …

If you have electrical contacts it would be easy to spot on  the door and frame .as would a twisting wire,

A pair of square shinny sprung buttons and corresponding contacts at the bottom of the habitation door jam.  If the buttons are not moving in and out freely, proper contact may not be made when the door is shut.  Manipulate the buttons with some WD40 if this is the case.

Had the same problem with mine, door was out of sync with the remote after I opened it from the inside before unlocking via the button on the front, so in effect over-rode the lock.
I needed to be outside, lock the van with the remote, then re-lock the hab door with the key...
