968 Door Locks - locking automatically after opening door!
When I unlock the car then open the door it automatically locks the doors.
Troubleshooting:
-Unlocking the car and opening either door will cause the car to re-lock the doors
-I disconnected the central locking switch and the condition remains
-I swapped the factory alarm module with a spare and the condition remains
-If hold the door sensor in the closed position, unlock the doors and then release the door sensor the condition remains
I've done some searching... but can't quite find the solution.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

There must be an issue with the CLM (central locking module). It's a small, elongated, black box located on the steering column, attached with 2 brass clasps. Yours may have a broken solder joint, etc. Try swapping it with a good one to see if that makes a difference. I know it did on my S2 when I fitted the unit from my 951. Look for a used one. Have never heard of them being repaired, but I suppose it's possible.
