locking me out... Options

[eclipse_04a]

ok, well my car has picked up a bad habbit. I think the grand prix it parks next to must be a bad influence.... Anyways, when the car is unlocked, and i use the door handle to open the car, it locks itself. It will open about 3/4 of an inch and then it wont go any farther. even if the door is open, and i pull up on the door handle, you can watch the lock on the inside flip fowards. the only way i can get into my car is to hold the key turned in the lock while I pull up on the door handle. has anyone ever heard of something like this happening? I did find a nice feature about the locks though, If I unlock the door, then turn the key to unlock again, it will unlock the passenger door as well.

The same thing happend to my passenger door handle (so i dont really care too much). It use to open fine, and then one day i was hitting the unlock button to let my friend in, and i unlocked the door as my alarm locked the door and my friend pulled the handle at the same time. Then my locks went nuts and they were locking and unlocking really really fast, i had to disconnect the battery to make it stop. Now, when you open the pass. side it locks itself b4 it opens. Hows that for a weird story?
