Hello all,

Recently one morning I noticed a clicking noise while driving to work. Come to find out it was my door locks continuously locking. I thought it was a faulty key fob and it eventually went away. Its now been a few weeks and last night as I was driving home, the truck continuously was locking itself all the way home. I disassembled my fobs and noticed in the driveway my truck was still doing it. This went on for about an hour and I eventually went out and disconnected the battery. I've read a few posts about a faulty ground wire, but I really have no idea where to start. I will reconnect the batter and see what happens. If anyone else has tackled this, let me know.

Appreciate any suggestions.
 






This is a new one Matt. Don't recall it ever being mentioned before.

Interestingly enough, since reconnecting my battery all seems fine. I've watched a few things on youtube on how to diagnose faulty grounds to the relays. That looks like a PITA, so I just hope this was a one and done.
