I'm having the same problem as posted, and I was wondering: can't you leave the trunk open and it locks with the rest of the car? It's really annoying having to lock the car, then go to the trunk and lock it, as with opening the trunk.

Regards,

Before you go out and spend all your money on electrical parts the E32's will do that when your trunk is unlocked. If you try to lock your car when your trunk is unlocked the doors will "double lock". just make sure your trunk is locked.

Okay, so curing my c/locking problem wasn't as easy as I'd thought. Whenever I lock the doors, they lock & then unlock. Lock them again & they stay locked. Same happens when unlocking, it takes two attempts! I've tried swapping the Relay Module & the General Module (ZKE), with known good units, but to no effect. This is assuming that either one of these modules handles the c/locking? Any help here would be much appreciated.
