Default Door locking and unlocking

My Jag 2002 has developed a small problem. When driving the door locks first automatically lock but after a while unlock themselves and keep trying to unlock again and again. Locking functions work as normal and the key fob works but it keeps unlocking even if i manually lock from inside when driving. Anybody have a sollution?

When the car is running the controller will not let the doors unlock or lock remotely,( I just tried mine)so probably not the fob, so we have a wire/door handle/door switch after the controller that is manually triggering it, the door handles will unlock/ lock the car when it's running, but when the door is open/key in ignition you can not lock the doors,so it could be a door switch. Just trying to help pin point the fault.

Thanks for the tip!

Will have a look at the door switch. Sounds as it might be it.

Battery is new so it isn''t the fob. I think it is the door switch. Will post when i have a answer.
