Hey guys, I had posted something on this earlier in the year when I first got the truck, but the problem went away after my battery died and I replaced it (and the extremely corroded terminals) I figured it must have been an ECU issue, that was resolved when the battery was disconnected. So, the other day, I used the Crappy Tire aftermarket remote starter (installed by PO) for the first time of the year, and low and behold, the old problem is back. Anyway, the locks on my truck have a mind of their own. I unlock the truck with the key, as I don't have a master key with remote fob, and when I close the drivers door, everything locks. It only happens when I close the drivers door, none of the others. Usually that is it, but sometimes they lock and unlock themselves repetitively while I'm driving. I can unlock the doors but not lock them from the drivers side lock button. Obviously, my main concern is that I can't leave the car running with the key in the ignition and close the door from outside, but I also worry in general if it is a sign of a larger electrical issue, one that could leave me stranded in the bush some day. I can't help but feel that it has something to do with the remote starter, which has the ability to lock and unlock the car, but doesn't work 90% of the time to do so. Some people have suggested a short in the door, as my seat memory also doesn't work, but the fact that it went away until I used the starter is odd to me. Any ideas, or advice on how to test? Or, for that matter, any idea how to remove a remote starter? They are useful at -40...
