Doors will not lock?

Last night I was doing some stereo work. I put in a new head unit and put in an amp for my interior speakers for my 1995 GXE. I got everything in, and I went to lock the car up for the night. As soon as I hit the lock button on the driver side door panel, the doors would flip to lock and then back to unlock. This was happening on all four doors. So I tired using the key, but I got the same results. The doors would flip to lock and the quickly back to un lock. Has any one ever delt with a problem like this? Something is out of whack but I don't know what it is. Thanks for any help.

*Also I had the front door panels off. I had to fix the driver side window so it would roll down all the way (took some styrofome out).

You have the symptoms of a bad master switch. Check the driver's side door panel that you took off and the wiring going to the master switch. Chances are you pinched something.

yeah I was going to check that tonight. I was just hoping someone would say, "oh, I had the same problem....this is what it is"
