My 2003 Toledo has today been unlocking and locking itself whilst I was driving.
Now this evening the windows have all opened themselves outside.

I've read it will relate to a control module possibly being wet.
Can anyone tell me where I can find this module to check it out?

Possibly solved.

I disconnected the battery overnight Friday night, as didn't want the windows opening overnight.

Reconnected the battery 8am Saturday morning and hasn't done it since.

Could be a switch in one of the locks that is causing it to continuously lock and unlock. Not so sure about the windows but it'd be worth letting someone have a look at it for swifter diagnosis. Shouldn't be too expensive a fix.

Thanks. The windows and locks are on the same circuit with the same fuse. They are both controlled by the same convenience control unit, so the problem is related.
Disconnecting the battery for 10 hours overnight seems to have rectified the problem.

Stands a good chance of being inter-connected then. Keep an eye on it but should be an easy fix if it crops up again.
