I had the same problem with my 1996 tahoe, the best way I have found is to get a can of PB BLASTER penetrating oil. Then spray the lock mechanism on the door and let it sit. Then try working the lock from both the manual lock and the remote. If that does not work, you may have to remove the door panel and lubricate the lock linkage from the inside of the door. BE Careful removing the trim piece on the door handle, it will break easily. It's a good idea to spray all of the locks and mechanisms on a regular basis to keep them from sticking. ANSWER You could have a weak door lock solenoid that is not fully moving the unlocking mechanism.

Why don't may Remote unlock or lock passenger side front door and back doors?

I don't want to sound simplistic, but you need to press the unlock button TWICE in quick succession. Just pressing it once unlocks the driver's door, the second press unlocks the other doors. Hope that helps...

What is the process in which to unlock manually or with wireless entry the passenger door of a 2004 Toyota Solara?

Manually you can unlock the door using the inside lock (above the handle). Toggle it so the 'red' portion shows and the door is unlocked. With the remote, press the (unlock) button twice. The first press unlocks the driver side door, second press unlocks the passenger side. There's yet another option. You can set the door locks so both the driver and passenger doors unlock when you put the transmission in park (and lock when you put it in gear). You'll find that information on page 22 of your owners manual. Actually, you'll also find the other 'how to lock/unlock' info in the owners manual too. Cheers

on the bottom of the steering column there is a small rectangular plastic plug that pops out (small flat screw driver works good) pop this cover off and there is a button inside. hold that button in and it unlocks the ignition allowing you to get your key out. (the button pushes in toward the cab of the car) hope this helps

How do you open a locked sliding passenger door when the button won't lift up?

unfortunately on the 2004 model you have to hit the unlock button on the driver side and then the sliding door button on the upper middle console.. If at first it does not open continue to do so. Make sure you turn the car off first for a couple of minutes than proceed to do this.. This routine however crazy it sounds always unlocks the lock whenever it is jammed for me.. good luck...
