Bf Mk2 Doors Locking And Unlocking Themselves

[gregor]

I've got a bit of an odd issue, on my 2006 bf mk2 T I'll get an intermittent issue where the door locks will cycle at random times. Sometimes I'm driving, other times sitting still, door closed door open doesn't seem to matter. I don't notice any door open light on that dash when this happens or the center light coming on (but ill keep an eye out for it).

Some other info:

- I dont think its the common worm gear issue since all the doors lock and unlock perfectly every time I lock or unlock the car. When this started happening I got paranoid so yes I have been checking I will listen for any noises in the lock next time I get a chance.

- No horn noise or indication the security system is going crazy

- I read something about a microswitch possibly failing in the drivers door, might need to investigate that.

Any suggestions? It's the sort of issue that doesnt happen every time I drive it so I could see it being tricky for a dealer/auto electrician unless its registering some sort of fault code. Search/google didnt help too much. Thanks.

It's a pain in the arse not being able to lock your car.

I've had a similar problem on my BA after a fair bit of wet weather. I stuffed around pulling off door trims and mucking around with door actuators but eventually gave up and dropped it into ford. They ended up finding a problem with a loom connector in the passenger side kick panel.....they charged me bugger all for fixing it up even though they spent about four hours chasing down the fault.

Good Luck
