The door does not lock with the "door lock" button from the inside to prevent locking your key inside of the car. Simply turn the key in the door when you close it to lock all the doors.
The key has a button which controls the locks on the doors, press once for drivers door and other doors, if key does not work check battery in key.
Not sure which avalanche you have but I have the 03 Northface all you have to do to switch drivers is switch that remote you open the doors with.. On my friend's there was a driver one and driver two option on a button on the drivers door.
Assuming you are sitting in the car with the key in the ignition you just push the door lock button on the drivers door, all the doors should then lock.
Try pushing the unlock button twice. Many cars now unlock the drivers door on the first push, then all other passenger doors on the second push of the button.
You push the key remote unlock button two times.....
For Security so as nobody can jump in uninvited while you are getting yourself comfortable. Try pushing the button 2 or 3 times to unlock all doors.
If the door is open. or any door is open. All doors will lock but the drivers door. I guess so you don't leave keys in. That's how it works on my 99.
I just bought one and it does...however, when you shut the drivers side door it pops the unlock button and unlocks all the doors. I have to put the key in the door and turn it to lock all the doors at once.
To unlock the rear door ???just push the unlock button on the drivers side door on the in side and it will unlock all doors and the rear door also. then Just pill on the outside rear door handle and it will open., push the button 2 times to unlock all doors.
You just have to have your seat belt on when you dont have your doors and windows on.
you open doors by pressing the B button on the controller
I have a Toyota sienna 2003 van, LED of the car alarm keeps blinking even I deactivate it to open the doors . Please tell me how to reset it? thanks Peter
