What's wrong with my car? While driving my doors magically start unlocking every few seconds. I can't leave my car parked anywhere either. As soon as I lock the doors and activate the alarm, within a few seconds all the doors unlock. Is this a common problem?

 

is your car lowered?

 

No not lowered.

 

Never heard of this but what a pain in the ars...

 

Yea I can't pinpoint this at all. It's a late model car and it's freaking me out.

 

mine had a similar problem when i first bought it except it was that the doors kept locking themselves, so not as bad as your problem but mine stopped once i put a battery in the key remote that comes with the car and started using that to lock it, havent had the problem since, def an alarm related problem

 

Changed the keyfob battery. No luck.

 

Sick and tired of this. Is there any way to disconnect the immobilizer system?

 

When you open your doors(individually), does your dome light come on? If so, then on to the next thing, what kind of alarm do you have?

 

Stock alarm system. Dome lights don't come on. I could do without the power doors if it's going to keep on unlocking. It's very irritating.

 

If your dome lights aren't coming on, your door pin triggers(what tells the car your doors are open) has gone bad. See when the car is turned to ignition and you try to lock your doors, it won't allow you if a door is open. But if the car is in drive and your doors are closed, it'll lock the doors automatically for you. With a bad door trigger, or a short in the door trigger circuit, its constantly going off and on. I'm in a car right now and I'm trying to explain but I'm probably rambling. Everyone keeps talking to me in the car. When I get to the crib, I'll try to explain better and find you a fix or quick solution.

 

I have a feeling that the previous owner disabled the "door trigger" on my drive side door (as his previous posts here lead to alarm issues).

Is it a sensor inside the door that can be replaced? My car is lowered and I need to look at the harness in the fender well but I glanced at it and it looked ok.

My passenger side door turns the lights on, my driver side does not, and I can't lock my car with the door lock; I have to lock them manually (however they do stay locked).
