i just bought a 2000 nissan sentra gxe with power locks, but the locks will randomly come unlocked whether i'm driving or have the car turned off. it's even doing it more frequently as i can hear a "click" noise under the dash while i'm driving down the road. any help is appreciated!

if there's a way to turn off the power locks to solve this that'd work fine.

if the solution involves taking off the door panel, i need some instructions on how to safely do this

I think one of your door lock switches are effed. If you try pulling the plug on one of your door lock switches at a time, you should be able to figure out which one is doin it.

I have seen several bad main window switches on the driver's door panel window and door switch is made into one unit.

I kinda wanted to lean to a bad security remote as well when I started reading.

Since that not it I am thinging posible moisture in one of the front door harness connectors.
