Hi and first i'd like to say hello to the community so HI
But down to the matter at hand.
Just bought this corsa and the central locking is well... quite buggered. First of all when I lock drivers door, it triggers the central locking and the locking swings into effect, but releases itself 2-3 seconds later without fail everytime. Tried the fuses, took the panels off and tried for loose wires, but nothing seems out of the ordinary, tried the ECU in the drivers footwell and seen if there were any loose wires, and also checked the relays on the passengers side. Well, I would appreciate any help.

Sounds like a faulty central locking motor.
When you lock the car watch the door pins and see if one doesn't go down.
I think it's a safety measure so you don't walk off thinking the car is locked, But if one motor doesn't lock all doors unlock.
And welcome to the forum

yeh, both door pins go down if i lock from drivers but the passenger reopens but you can see the drivers pin make an attempt to rise but cant because the keys still in the lock. But if i were to lock the passenger side, only that would lock.
