problem #1

May 122015

Dakota SLT 4.7L V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 77,500 miles

The doors constantly lock themselves. Driving down the road and the locks are clicking to lock the car.

I've tried taking out the door lock switch on both the drivers and passenger sides, but it will still click, although less often after that. I have cleaned the battery terminals and ground wires, still not fixed. I've also tried to disable that auto-lock feature on it that locks the car after acceleration, but that did not fix the problem either. The best fix I have found is to turn the music on and try and ignore it. Which isn't really a fix at all.
