My 850's doors lock all by themselves! The remote has not worked (and I think it was an aftermarket not factory) for many years so we have been locking the doors with the key. Lately after parking the car in the garage we will come out to it later to find the doors locked.

Also, not sure if this is related - sometimes the door locks go up and down once when we turn the radio on. Is this a relay problem? Ground? Anybody got any suggestions.

Unfortunately with something that is aftermarket it becomes a real guessing game. My son had aftermarket remote start and keyless entry on his car. The starter went bad and killed the system. This is what I wound up removing from the car to get it to start again:

It was all under the driver's side lower dash panel.
