Power Locks auto lock

I have a 1999 Sel. Every once in a while I find that my car is locked when I didn't push the powerlock button. The security light is still blinking when the car is locked. The security light is on solid when I locked it with the key fob.
Just wondering if there a voltage minimum, or something causing this to happen? Anyone else have this problem?

Sometimes when I get in the driver's side, and close the door before the passenger gets a chance to open their door, it locks all but the drivers side. Sometimes it just locks all but the drivers side randomly. This is only before the engine is started. I would like some more info on the auto locks also.

Hmm...that's odd. My only complaint with the key fob is that all 4 doors must be shut to lock the car from the fob.

I get this crazy problem that happens every once in a while. I'll unlock with the key and the doors all re-lock. it takes like 3 times to get them to stay unlocked.

there is a switch in the pass door lock that messes up. if you notice there is no lock button on the pass side, it has a thing where you can manually lock the pass door and all the other doors will lock automatically and when you manually unlock it all the other doors will unlock, i say get a new pass side lock switch, it worked for mine and it was messing up like yours!

That sounds like my problem! I'll check it out. But it seems like it's not a serious problem so I might just leave it alone until it craps out! Thanks
