Or a defective microswitch. See on my website the link to Johan & Sean's page.

I checked all the fuses. they are okay. Looks like it might be the microswitch.

Thanks guys.

by the driver's side hinge in the trunk lid. It will do no harm to check this frequent source of lock system issues.

Just checked the trunk wiring... found 6 wires all with the casings broken, though wires still connected. Taped them up, but the doors still not locking normally. Any suggestions?

available key holes. I mean, both front doors and trunk. Remember you should not double lock the doors for the trunk key hole to be able to unlock the system.

I'm interested to see if there is one lock that works fine, as it would be the culprit. My car is doing the same thing "Unlock / lock / unlock again", only noticed it when engine is running (typically when I'm leaving a passenger, may be also in "D", and have not been able to debug it, though I have not put enough effort).

I fear the culprit is the trunk lock, may be it is acting lazy, and it is issuing a lock command early after unlocking the system. If so, may be some lube in the linkage will help, as long as the micro switch inside the actuator is working fine (It is if lock works fine with the key).

The trunk unlocks and locks the car normally, but both driver's and passengers door both double lock. So that makes it the boot lock then?

[Javier]

in both locked positions, I mean, horizontally, and locked vertical? is there any difference?
