306 3-door Style (1.8L Petrol) 1997 - Central locking going crazy - hal2100

My central locking is going beserk. All the doors lock and unlock repeatedly. Often it'll take a pause for a little while (minutes), then start again.

The radio has also lost power. These happened simultaneously.

I've pulled the central locking fuse while I search for a solution.

Information that may be relevant. There is 'something' loose in the roof space and has been for many months. It moves around when I corner. It's been raining buckets for days and the the sunroof leaks in really heavy rain, I also get leaks through the door (but still haven't worked out exactly where despite assistance here).

306 3-door Style (1.8L Petrol) 1997 - Central locking going crazy - hal2100

Still no success with doors (or radio)

However, when I disconnect the passenger door wiring loom at the door-body connector, the doors stop going crazy, but they all lock and stay locked.

It looks like the passenger door is trying to stay unlocked, but something else wants everything locked. It's the contradictory commands that cause the crazy behaviour. No wiggling or cleaning solves the problem.

Any ideas?
