98 XJ8 suddenly unlocks while driving!
I was driving, and suddenly all of my locks unlock. I get home fine, no engine or tranny issues, seems normal.
Here is what I am experiencing now...
1. I can lock and unlock the car with the key ONLY. Nothing automatic works.
2. Trunk only unlocks with key.
3. Locks do not engage when put in drive, as they did before
4. Unlock button on dash does nothing, as does the trunk unlock button
5. "rear bulb failure" on dash warning and no brake lights
6. I am hearing a distinct "CLICK" when I push the brake pedal / car off. Sounds like it is coming from the gearshift.
Does anyone have ANY idea what this could be??
I HAVE CHECKED EVERY FUSE IN THE CAR.
Many thanks to all for any help!!
