2001 Quad-Cab Power Lock Problems

I have a 2001 Dakota Quad-Cab and it has an annoying problem with the power locks. While driving down the road the locks will keep "unlocking", as if someone keeps hitting the unlock switch. I've tried to disable the auto lock function, get in, turn the key on-off 4 times, hit the lock switch, and that didn't help. I'm thinking it might be the relay for the power locks, but I was just wondering if anyone else hasa run into this before I spend some money and chase my tail. Any help would be appreciated. By the way, I had tried leaving the remote door lock control at home thinking it may have had a part to play in this, but I still have the problem.

Mom's van does that all the time. I can't even ride in it anymore, I'd probably smash the windows out of rage.

If I knew what caused this, I swear I'd tell you because I wouldn't want anyone else to have to suffer that crap.

Just thought that you might like the Dodge's site address where this problem is addressed :dodgeram.info/tsb/2003/08-023-03.htm. Apparently it is a problem with a number of Dodge Dakotas, etc. Take a look!

I had a cyllenoid in my lock go out and it made this horrible screeching noise whever you locked and unlocked it. That was horrible...I feel your pain.
