Locks are opened automatically

Got "this" today...

Electronics opens front door locks from time to time when I'm driving...
It opens not all front locks at once but it opens them with some delay.

Looks like some small gnomes are in my locks and playing with me...

I have replaced "Door locks" fuse in floor console (just in case) - didn't help.

Even if key is off - locks are still opening. And it happens from time to time: it may gone for 10-15 mins but then electronics will open locks 20 times in minute... And no metter if locks are already opens or not.

Tried to play with lock settings - didn't help.
Only one thing is still in my to-do list - remove cords from battery and wait for about 5 mins to clear all possible settings / errors.

P.S. Error codes are empty - checked them via EML327.

Now that is a different problem! Just a thought. Do you have 2 key FOBs? If so either remove the battery from your regular one and use the spare, or if you only have 1 remove the key FOB battery and see what happens!
May be a short in the key FOB is my guess! Please let us know what you find! I don't know if the HHR computer needs to be reflashed, but Im sure the gearheads will chim in.


Just noticed your new here WELCOME to the site!

welcome to the Twilight Zone!! I'd make that battery disconnect 30 minutes to ensure computer resets, and follow Radco's advice, let us know
