Car running, saw some smoke near the running board or possibly from underneath that trim piece in the pic that has the little separation..... (Drivers side)

Smelled like electrical burn, thought maybe my puddle light bit the dust as I had door open etc.

Turned off car. Restarted, no issues.

Then went to next stop and tried to use my remote to lock the doors as I walked away - nothing. No more remote use.

What did I fry??

Do the power locks still work at the door switch? If the puddle lamps / door switch / locks are all on the same fuse maybe the puddle lamp wiring grounded out and broke fuse.
 
Door switch still works fine.

I will have to check if puddle lights work a bit later as its sunny as heck today but slushy and I'm in a suit!
