    Did this just magically start happening or have done any electrical mods lately?
    Does cruise control still function?

    My guesses.

    1) Someone fat fingered a wiring job of some type

    or

    2) Squirrels/rat damage in the harness

    No, it’s worse than that.
    See the link above.

    FWIW,

    OP, I think the signals to the door locks are Ground side signals to the ECU.
    What doors lock? All of them or just one?

    See if you have one of the head light fuses blown?
    I asked because the door locks are operated off a ground signal.
    If the fuse to the head lights is blown, this would make since why the door might be locking.

    Sorry, didn't catch you were the same poster that had that other pile-'o-mess like @TnShooter did.

    The question you post here will very likely be cleared up in conjunction with resolving all that other mess.
