Door locks
2. If I pull up to a curb engine running or off, and want someone to be able to open the PASSENGER door - I can't unlock it from the driver side DOOR lock switch. I have either put it in Park or pick up my key fob and select unlock. Or, I can reach over and press the Unlock button on the PASSENGER door switch.
Why can't I use the DRIVER door lock switch to unlock the car?
If its bad, then how do I remove the switch.
side note: the lock button work on both driver and passenger doors and only the passenger door UNlock button works, drivers does not.
Key fobs work great, I'm talking about the unlock button on the drivers door.
All explained in owners manual.
luck

2. If I am sitting still, no engine running, still not able to unlock the door using the DRIVER side switch. (But I can with the PASS door switch.





You continue to fail to read the owner's manual to see how it works even though advised in this thread and the other thread you started. So why don't you go to a dealer and he can read it for you.
i can be standing outside the car with the door open and touch the door unlock button and it does not work. If I walk to the other side of the car, still standing outside the car, and touch the passenger door unlock switch, it works fine.
Yes I have read the manual and there is absolutely no possible way to program the door lock switch buttons to only operate from the passenger side and not the driver.
(incidentally HOXXOH, my 'other' post wants to know how to remove the switch and I would appreciate you, as a 'CF Senior Member' not be condescending and ask me to go to the dealer and have them read the manual to me)

Early on in the other thread you mentioned "I'm pulling up to curb and want to push unlock button/switch on drivers door so someone can get in car. Unlock doesn't work, but lock does. I have to reach over to passenger door to unlock switch/button on door to unlock door. Or put car in park."
What I don't understand is why you don't put the car in park for the safety of who may be getting in the car and for others who may be nearby in case your foot slips off the brake. It's a simple task, so can you explain the reasoning for not doing it? Also, why do you not want to program the switch for both doors? Both methods accomplish the goal, however shifting to park is safer.
Regarding condescending remarks, I should have said the dealer can explain it to you, rather than read it to you. Your " in the safety of my gated community" is every bit condescending too.
BTW, other than one post by HK770, who repeats the same info, no one else has offered any other solutions, since there are none to offer.
I'm done here.
