Central Locking going off by itself.

[synergy141]

I have a problem with my central locking system its going off by itself and won't stop unless I unhook the battery. Anyone know where I should start?

I don't think I understand what you mean by "central locking system its going off by itself and won't stop". But the first think I would do would be to check the operation and state of the various switches that control central locking.

Hey G, is it just locking and unlocking non stop?

There is a trouble shooting section in the etm on the central locking.
I have a spare clm if you need it to test.

Yeah when ever I hook the battery up it just keeps clicking (unlocking and locking) so there must be a short somewhere. I remember when I first bought the car it did it randomly but then for some reason when I shut the trunk it stopped. But now it does it all the time. So my guess there is a wire shorting in the trunk area.

A continuous cycle of locking and unlocking sounds like it could be a bad central locking module. A short in a switch circuit would cause the car to lock and remain locked. A short in the actuator circuits should blow the fuse.

My central locking did the same thing...just before it died.

Bump because me too ^

I assume you don't have a keyless entry/alarm hooked up?

[Butler]

No but I'd like to.
