Default doors lock when I shut them-power locks

Hi everybody,

Lately I have been having a problem where when I shut the passenger side door, the power locks actuate and it locks all the doors. It usually happens with the passenger side door, once with the drivers side door, and once all by itself while driving. I can't find anyone on google with this same problem, either. Is it a lose wire that shorts when I shut the doors? or something to do with the mechanical aspect of the locks? Any advice on what to do next would be apreciated.

Thanks
xjnm

Thanks for the reply. I dont see any, and the loom is in good shape. no tears in the mesh or the rubber. Anywhere else to look?
