      There is a sensor that triggers in the event of a rollover. The sensor prevents the doors from locking, so you can get out. The sensor is located under your left front speaker, in the central door lock controller.

      If you operate the lock while the unit is not held vertically, it will unlock and never lock again.

      So, assuming you have not been fooling around with your central locking mechanism, your CLM died. Or, you have a sort to ground in the "unlock request" wire...which runs all over the car.

      Check out the diagram and the troubleshooting charts here:http://www.wedophones.com/BMWManualsLead.htm

            Sam, I think there was a glitch somewhere last night. A couple of mine were deleted too.

              and if those things dont fix your problem it is most likely that the inner door handle on one of your doors is not alll the way in the closed position.

              from inside, push all of the handles closed. then try it.
