e36 centre locking / alarm problem

[DanPromote]

I have this unusual problem with my centre locking. One of the doors do not lock but the rest 3 does. However the particular motor has been taken out and found out to be in working condition.Secondly, whenever I press my alarm to open the locks, the 3 door opens but immediately closes again. I have to do this over again until it opens. Is this a centre locking motor problem, an alarm problem or the actual door lock problem?Also can someone recommend me a place where they can solve this without potong leher prices?

Thanks, I fixed the problem already, it is caused by the central locking and relay as well as my door lock. Saved quite a bit coz they replaced the bmw central locking system with a honda accord one which is only 1/6 the price. (RM55 compared to RM300+).
