hey

My central lockings gone mad on my 53 focus lx, iv always used the remote to lock unlock, but recently the distance i could use it had decrease (battery dying) so i changed the battery and it worked fine for 2 days, now when i lock the car tho it unlocks itself straight away i cannot even lock it using the interior locks or by the key on any doors it just unlocks straight away?

any help please :D

the reason is one of your latches is faulty try to find out which one by watching the interior handles when they lock/unlock if you buy a s/h one make sure you get a latch that uses a remote as there are 2 types it takes a 6 pin wiring plug on the front doors,colin
