I recently got my car detailed 2 days ago. When I drove the car home my "service air bag" light came on my display panel. Now my power locks are not working. Last night when Iwas driving my locks kept on locking and unlocking as I was driving it. Also last night, when I went to get into my ar to come home, my car locked with my keys in the igntion. Normally, the system does not allow the car to lock with the keys in the ignition. Today driving to work and on my lunch, the car is locking and unlocking the dorrs as I am driving agin. Now, my button on my door is not working at all to manually lock the doors. Could this have been from the detailing? Could they have gotten something wet and messed up the system?

Yes, it does sound like that's what's happening.

I am taking the car back to the detail place today and they want to take the door apart and see if there is anything wet etc. Is there anywhere or anything they should do.I am getting the impression that they do not think it is from the detail job.

Have them check the power door remote control receiver and its associated wiring for moisture also. I have attached an illustration of where this is located on the rear shelf
