When I unlock the doors on my 986 the bonnet solenoid always unlocks also. It also happens when I unlock the boot.
Everything locks at the same time as it should.
Has anybody experienced this before and know what the solution is please?

Have a look & feel under the passenger seat & see if it is wet. The body control module lives there & blocked drains flood the area. Otherwise it needs investigating by someone with a scanner to find out what is going on.

update ..... it fixed itself the next day. The car hadn't been used for a little while and so I guess that this error must be linked to the central locking energy saving mode that these cars seem to go into if left for a week without being used. Once I started using the car again it reset itself to normal.
