The car is making "locking sounds".

When i was putting in a subwoofer in my 323F 1.5L -95 and were pulling cables from the battery. I noticed that the doors tryed to lock them self or something like that, I think it was only when the doors where open. It sounded like if you loked and directly locked up the doors again.
Why is it acting like that?

You have an alarm fitted.
Could be the alarm triggering the doors to lock when
it gets disconnected from the battery.

But it behaves like that when the battery is connected too, and I don't have an alarm...

i hope you weren't pulling the cables while connected to the battery?!?!?

you may find that you were pulling the cable through the section that has the master wires for the central locking. I can't confirm for your car, but some central locking sytems have a negative trigger. This means you could have a stripped wire somwhere and it is pulsing to ground somewhere, this would cause the central locking to play up.

No but you have to pull a sound cable too, from the headunit. So the sub was alredy connected to the battery when I did that.
But forget anything about the battery or somethings like that. It does the same thing today if i keep the door/s open for a while and has never done it when I have bin sitting in the car. Just that i noticed it for the first time when I was installing my sub...
