Default my car is possessed

this morning when i started up the car all 4 windows rolled down. then i got to work and turned the car off and turn the key on to listen to the radio and rolled the windows down some so i could finish eating my breakfest. i rolled up my windows, turn the car off and took out my keys and closed the door and it locked itself.

when i got out of work i tried to open my windows via key fob and nothing (yes i've already done the vag window key fob mod). i get in the car to open all the windows and the windows didnt respond right away when i went to open them. i was opening and closing the windows to make sure all the one-touch window switch work and the rears wouldnt close by the one-touch (yes i've already done this mod).

i get home (with the car still running and windows down) i got out to get the mail and closed my door and it locked itself. i open the door using the inside door handle. when i got inside i closed the door it locked itself again. i opened the door again and closed it and it locked itself again. when i pulled into the garage and got out and closed the door again it locked itself again. WTF!!!!!!

Default you should check and make sure that your central locking pump didn't get wet

how's the weather? My locks started getting screwy, then my interior lights came on by themselves, then my alarm, windows and theft ignition disabled. The car became useless and unable to drive by the next day. Turned out to be a leak in the trunk that got the clp wet. This computer controles windows, locks, alarm, interior lights, It's located on the pass side trunk behind a trim panel. YOu may also want to re-code or check your coding for it via VAG
