So I clean everything and shorten the springs to reduce tension, then reassemble in stages with super glue.

It’s such a rubbish design it should have been on a Territory ICC - then again, it uses ‘00s electronics, not eighties… Once this is reassembled, I can find out if the phantom unlocking was spilled coffee “glue” inside the panel or a faulty door actuator.
I have no clue what you said, I'm pretty illiterate when it gets too technical.
