I have the same problem. Took it to a dealer. He charged $100 to investigate for an hour. Called back after an hour; asked for more $$ since he couldn't find out why!!!. At this stage I took my car back without fixing anything(lost $100 on this). I am surprised this car does not have a safety release from inside.

When unlocking your 1999 Jeep GC with your remote a loud buzzing grinding sound comes from the driver side door and driver door never unlocks with remote you use key every time why?

I'm going to assume that the other doors unlock just fine. There are motor assemblies with accuator rods that work the locking mechanism inside the door when the switch or remote is used. Not the manual lock button itself specific to that door. That probably works fine. Sometimes these actuator rods become unhooked or the motors themselves fail. This sounds like a faulty motor assembly. you must hit unlock twice to unlock all the vehicle doors and your vehicle has driver comfort controls your seat positions radio goes to the channel you have preselcted and the side mirrors adjust for you heres were you get the grinding noise as you press unlock on your remote look at the passenger side mirror it will be going threw a spasm over there lol not sure why maybe the motor or rods as previously stated my solution replace the whole mirror.


2004 jeep grand Cherokee pass rear door window goes down but not up?

If the window won't go up from only one switch it is most likely that switch. If it won't go up from the driver controls or the control on that window's door, then you probably have a problem with the window motor.

Why would the power window switch be out in both the main door switch and the other door switch?

Both window switch on the front door will lower the window, the problem is that both switch will not raise the window back up to its close position and also the master window switch on the Driver's side will not operate all the time nor will the master door lock on the driver's side lock the passenger side door. On several ocasion the driver's side window switch lowered it's window and it would'nt raise the window back up unless after quite a few minutes playing with the window switch, opening the door, etc.

How do you reprogram the keyless remote for a 2002 Mazda Millenia?

Open the driver door, sit on the seat and leave door open. Insert key in ignition. Turn to AC (instrument lights on), and switch off. Repeat 3 times fast. Depress the spring light switch on the door panel 3 times (the cabin lights will switch on and off). Press the remote unlock button 3 times. Exit the car, close the door and try the remote. If it doesn't work try again, or check your remote battery.
