Self Unlocking Of Doors Problem - Anyone Had This?

[Phil MC]

I've tried a search for this, but unable to find anything exactly the same, so any help would be gratefully received :thumb:.

My 2003 WRX has just started to intermittently unlock all the car doors without them being commanded to do so.

I was driving along this morning and all I could hear was an intermittent clicking of the central locking. When I stopped and locked the car using the keyfob button, the doors immediately unlocked again (Although alarm was now armed).

When I tried to lock the doors with the key in the doorlock, again but not immediately, the doors unlocked all by themselves. Then I could hear the locks again clicking to unlock intermittently.

Has anyone ever encountered this problem before, and if so what was the cause of it/what fixed it???

Many thanks for giving this some thought. :wonder:

Cheers,

Phil

Cheers for that .

I've sent him the question, but have another thing or two to look at before I take it to Griers 1st thing tomorrow.

Cheers for the help guys . Got some good pointers of where to look.

I managed to get a C/L control unit to swap out, and thankfully this fixed it without me having to remove any door cards and look at the lock motors etc.
