I have a 99 4.6 HSE Thor.
To be honest its had the fault since I bought the car almost a year ago but its been annoying me more than usual of late. The central locking works fine on all the doors from the fob.
However, sometimes when driving along the car will randomly lock its self. Pulling the door lock back up unlocks the doors and its fine. Some times it might do this several times in a short journey. Other times I can do a long journey and it won't do it.
Occasionally when unlocking the car, and opening the door it sometimes relocks and then unlocks again with no input from me however this is very very rare.
Basically I am thinking that its a door microswitch OR the RF receiver in the boot. Am I barking up the right tree? I have found that it seems to be better if I make sure the doors are slammed before setting of.
One final point, in the hot weather a few weeks ago with the windows open I awoke at 5am to the lovely sound of my P38 locking and unlocking its self every few seconds. However I have listened and watched it and never seen it do that again.
Any thoughts?
Cheers
