i notice that each time i stop or slow down my central locking system will open the safety locks on the door without me doing or touching any buttons.
and it closes as i drive off

Maybe bad wiring on the door harness? Check for frayed/broken wires...

i agree with WhiteDX as the last time I had to troubleshoot a customers car with that problem my first guess ws the Driveres Door Harness going from door to kick panel and

Sure Enough!.. broken wires from the door opening and shutting. I started with the drivers door because it gets used a lot more than the others.

Thisis also sometimes the culprit when the window or seatbelt randomly stops and starts when closing the door.
