    Im sure you will find when it does that, it is the microswitch in the door lock assembly. When I was playing with my door locks I noticed that if the microswitch wasnt held in, the doors locked then unlocked. I imagine one of them is either faulty or the metal bit that switches it is bent and not making proper contact.

    Another silly question??? ok it seemed to work abit better when the micro switch was just hanging there not hooked up.I just turned the key and it locked then unlock all the doors, how it should be but it still played up a few times tho.So if the switch does all the work how is it that it worked with out it? Also im thinkin of ripping it all out and getting meself sum good old fashon locks any idea how hard it is to convert and what do I need??? thanx for the help...

    maybe if you had one switch out, that was the faulty one?
