Problem: BCM is my suspect for Power Door Locks to MALFUNCTION?

The Power Door Locks decide to stay unlocked for some reason.
When I press the Lock button they lock and right away re-open again.

So I continued to Re-Lock the doors and now only the front driver door stays unlocked, the rest don't work at all.

Has anyone ever come across this problem???

I think the Body Control Module is some what scwred due to my alarm.
This happend when I used the factory remote to open the doors and i forgot the alarm was still on and when I went to disarm my Cavy the door locks started acting up by staying in the Unlocked position mind you I used the factory remote a number of times when the car was armed and i guess the BCM couldn't take it anymore.

ANY SUGGESTIONS????

Is the BCM/RFA Reprogramable? If so, Can you Swap them between cars that you find at the junk yard without reprograming?

I have the COMPUSTAR Remote Paging Alarm.

Thanks to all,

Did you install this yourself? My guess is that someone 5-wired the doorlocks to work with the new alarm. Either those relays went bad or the wiring failed. So, find the lock/unlock wires from the new alarm and trace them to the aftermarket relays. Take a look at the wiring first. The locks are mastered from the PASSENGER door.
