Default WTF?! .....(take a deep breath and dont blow up the car)

So, I go out to the car to leave for work this wonderful morning. I press unlock, the doors unlock and lights flash like normal, not even as soon as they unlock, they relock. So I press unlock and get in the car. I start up the car and press the brake pedal to release the parking brake, and the doors lock again. Anytime I manually open the handle to just unlock the door. It will stay unlocked.... until I press the damn brake, then it locks again. Anytime I press the brake pedal, I hear the central lock system trying to lock nothing. HELP!! Please

Default Is the brake a coincidence or is it definitly as soon as you hit the brake?

do the dome light work when you open the drivers door? does it do this if you open any other door then the drivers door?

Could be a simple as the door switch not recognizing you opening the door.
