Car locks its self when you unlock it.

i posted this here so everyone could see it. i don't think that its a NA problem

well i just started having a problem with my aftermarket alarm. when i hit the unlock button on my key fob the door locks shutter and relock them self. i have check the aftermarket alarm. the factory one was DISABLED when the new alarm was installed. it just started one day after hit the remote start button on my alarm. if the car matters its a 1995 Fed Spec R/T DOHC.
also when i stick the key in the passanger door to unlock it, the car does the same thing.

Thanks
Jeff

This is a common problem. There are several threads that address this issue. The locking mechanizm on the driver’s door affects both doors. Over time the mechanism can get dirty and the manual lock does not fully move to the unlock position. The electronics think that you are trying to manually lock the doors so it re-locks. Take off the inside door panel, clean and lube the manual locking mechanism and you should be good to go.

when you use the power locks on either door they work with out issus. it only does it when you use the remote or the passanger side lock.

from the looks of the trunk latch there is an aftermarket latch and remote trunk poper on it.

I still say clean all the manual lock parts in the drivers door. When you use the key to unlock the passenger door it sends an electrical signal to the drivers door to unlock too. If the manual parts don't fully open the doors will relock. The remote works the same way, sending a signal to the drivers door to unlock. If you use the key in the driver's door you are manually moving the lock and it fully opens.

Mine was doing the same thing. I tried everything I could think of, even going as far as replacing the switches. Cleaning and lubing the manual lock parts inside the driver's door (everything from the latch to the inside door handle) is what fixed it.

try on the driver door, while you unlock it manually push the lock switch to the unlocked position at the same time (to assist it). It can be either door but it can get hung, really if you search for it info on how to fix it perm is available.

edit:
btw the rear actuator would work independantly of the doors lock/unlock function so has nothing to do with the problem you are having.

yea it only does it when you use the remote for the keyless. when you use the power locks it works fine

mine will sometimes do this when the battery gets really low or when you unlock and do not open the door for 30 seconds or so it will lock again.
