Automatic Door Locking Override Feature Service Communication
1Fault
- Customers may say they cannot override automatic door locking; the "Doors Lock Manually" selection in the DIC was removed starting in the 2005 model year.
2Finding the cause
Possible causes
- Since the 2005 model year every BCM is factory programmed to lock all doors when the transmission is shifted into gear or vehicle speed exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h).
3Correction
Repair
- Reprogram the BCM from Tis2Web: at the "Calibration Selection" screen select "locking" and pick the calibration "(Per customer request only) Auto Door Lock option ENABLED on DIC".
- After reprogramming, vehicles with Steering Wheel Controls (RPO UK3) get a new "Manual" selection in the "Auto Door Lock" personalization setting, next to "In Gear" and "With Speed".
- Vehicles without Steering Wheel Controls must enter the door lock programming mode described in section 2 of the owner's manual after the BCM is reprogrammed.
- In programming mode, one chime means Setting 1 (lock in gear), two chimes Setting 2 (lock with speed) and no chime Setting 3 (Manual).
Caution
- No new calibrations are available for the 2005 models or for vehicles with manual transmissions.
