1998 E320 sedan - Doors lock automatically

My MBZ e320 sedan suddenly has developed a problem. The door locks get actuated when I get out of the car ( even if the engine is running) a bit scary because I have my dogs inside the car. Is there a default switch to avoid this serious problem?

appreciatively
vichu

If possible - please copy me at vichux@yahoo.com -- I am a 76+ year senior and want to end this dangerous situation.

sorry - I did not want a secret reply. All I wanted was to have a copy of the email - just helping me to look at quickly.

One of central locking switches is acting.
I would start checking from trunk lock.
You can pull the plugs from it for testing. That might require blade later for unlocking, so first make sure the blade is working.
Don't fall for the spam suggesting that you need DAS for minor adjustments.

for the heck of it, try deactivating the drive-away auto lock feature and see if
that does anything
