Must be stupid hot for it too fail
I have had my lancer in temps over 45° C and zero issue with locks
Try the simple things in life , check the basics, reseat fuses , check the battery and not a volt meter either - get it tested with a proper load testing device , have a hunt thru a service manual perhaps? There are links to them on this site.
