Central locking keeps locking itself - is my 4R haunted?
Newbie here - I hope you guys can help me out.
My 2008 4Runner has factory-installed keyless entry and a cheap dealer-installed alarm (the type they put on it while it's sat in their lot - it has always been a bit dodgy). Years ago the central locking was re-programmed by the dealer to open all doors at once. The vehicle has 70K miles on it.
Recently, the central locking has started re-locking itself immediately after opening the vehicle with the keyless transmitter. I press the OPEN button and the vehicle unlocks OK, but then within less than a second it immediately re-locks. To get in the vehicle, I have to press the OPEN button and then immediately pull on the door handle. Even then, the other doors lock.
I have tried two different transmitters - both have the same problem.
Has anyone encountered this problem before? Any suggestions for troubleshooting?
