door locks are going crazy

Today I got into my truck and started it when I released the clutch my automatic door locks twitched and made the noise of it locking. The locks did not lock but continued to twitch and make the noise every time I engaged the clutch. This is vary weird. Im wondering if anyone knows why this is happening I've heard that this could be a problem with the ABS module. Any help would be awesome

Odd, sounds like a short somewhere.

I agree with BlazerLT, it sounds like a bare wire, so when you engage the clutch, it "shorts" the circuit, so the locks to the funny stuff...Just my idea

i backed out my driveway, but sooon as i put in reverse i heard doors lock...and they usually dont lock until you put in drive, so then they flickered lock/unlock for the next 5 minutes, then stopped...dont know what was going on....everyonce in a while it will do it sometimes......but no ideal why...i have 97 blazer

I used to have a GM car that did that twice. Oddly enough, both times a year apart on the same stretch of I-95 on a long trip far from home. I always assumed my problem was some kind of weird radio interference. The second time it happened, I pulled out the power door lock fuse and put it back in a few hours later. Problem never came back. Doesn't sound exactly like your problem, but I'd try pulling out the fuse anyway next time. With all of the electronic gear in cars these days, they seem to behave more and more like computers. Just my theory, but sometimes you may just need to reboot.

It is that or the sensor that tells the locks that the truck is running and moving is flaky.

Redneck ZR2 - the wire connection to the fuse box for the power door locks is loose, when you engage the clutch it is somehow "wiggling" the wire in the fuse box.
