Default locks

I have an '07 Uplander' when driving the locks keep locking themselves. Any fix or just take fuse out and forget it. Getting tired of the constant clicking.

Do you get door ajar warnings and dome lights on as well? If the warning's against the driver door or passenger door, the respective door latch assembly is probably flaky and shorting the door ajar/open switch. If it's against the driver's rear door or passenger's rear door, the respective sliding door jamb switch is flaky. Also, there's a remote possibility that the wiring has a short that simulates the switch closing.

The following idea may or may not help your situation..but when our '95 Ford Windstar used to get flakey or unpredictable door self-locking (when it shouldn't) or sometimes setting off its anti-theft alarms while we were driving it..I used to spray into the door locks some WD40 which cleared up the problems. I don't know whether it made the lock parts move better or improved the electrical contacts, but it helped.

I'd be leery of spraying anything into a 2007. Best case would be that it won't do anything, but liquid somehow getting into sealed components can create a bigger repair bill.
