Default Escort RS Turbo Central Locking Problem

Hi, I'm in the process of putting my S2 back together, but now that I've built the insides of the doors up the central locking wont work, it just locks and unlocks straight away, I've tried a few different motors, checked all the earths and connections but ran out of ideas now, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Can it actuate both door locks? Normally this happens when it cannot lock a door, for example if a door is not shut and you try to lock it will do just as you describe.

Yeah I've even tried disconnecting the motors from the locks and it's still no different.
