Default ford mondeo central locking problem

Hi i hope someone can help.
I have a ford mondeo 2.0 TDDI 51 plate 5 door hatch.

the central locking keeps locking and opening on it's own.This doesn't matter if the car is running or not.Sometimes when the car is unlocked i can hear the central locking trying to open again so the interior light comes on.But the most recent happening is the boot keeps opening on its own.When this happens i can hear it keep making the clicking sound over and over about 10 times even though it has allready opened on its own.

Thanks in advance guys for any help or advice you can give

Shaun

Sounds like a problem with one of the micro switches in the central locking mechanisms on the door latch's.

Best way to find which one is to disconnect them one at a time until the fault stops.

What he said^^, can also be caused by binding linkages that don't throw when they should so one lock is unlocked the other one says no I'm locked so they fight it out!!

Think it's more likely a central locking ECU problem which these are renowned for.
