Default Remote door lock stops working

I have a 2007 Chevy Tahoe purchased just about 8 months ago. When I bought it the remote worked fine. About 3 months later it stopped working. Now it only works if I unlock the driver door with the key first it will work. It will also work right after u turn it off and get off, I am able to lock the doors with the remote. Wait about 2 minutes after that and it wont work anymore. I got some programming instructions for the remote from a local locksmith but still didn't fix. Any suggestions on what the problem might be?

The remote could be going bad. Put a new battery in the remote and try it again. If that doesn't work then you probably will have to replace the remote.

I have already tried the new batteries at the local locksmith but still same issue. When I bought the Tahoe it came with 2 remotes and same issue on both. I don't think its a problem with the remotes
