Door Locks
Hey guys, sorry for posting often in the forum but I'm just really curious on how to do things for my car that I can't really find on the forums itself but do you know of any shops that you would recommend that could possibly work on my door locks? I have a really hard time reaching for the passenger door unlock whenever someone rides in my car and I was wondering if any shops would be able to make my driver side door unlock/lock button also control the passenger side door lock/unlock. I'm not too keen on electronics and I've searched the forums and seen some diy's but I dont' want to mess up my car seeing that me and electronics never work well together. Or if there is an alarm system that you would recommend that would let me control the pass lock/unlock from the driver lock/unlock button and also lock upon me starting the car also. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Oh I currently have the stock alarm system. Thanks - Erik

Driver's side door unlock button? Are you talking about the keyfob? A solution to this problem is always pressing unlock twice on your keyfob when you are walking towards your car, then the passenger side door will be always open.

Oh no sorry I meant like when I'm already in the car and someone is going to ride with me. I want to control the pass lock unlock from my driver side lock unlock switch on the driver side door. So instead of reaching over to the passenger door to manually unlock the passenger door, I could just unlock the passenger lock using the lock unlock switch that is already on the driver side door. Sorry for the confusion

Yea, I kind of dislike the lack of secure feeling in the fact that my doors never lock and I'm driving in the car with them unlocked 98% of the time unless I remember.

Someone posted this, but they never posted anything more in depth about their mod. I was wondering if it would be the same for an 06 or someone did it to their car already that has an ap2 because the original topic starter just said it works for an 00-03.

"I have always thought it was kind of a pain to have to reach across the car to unlock the passenger door from the inside. Why the passenger door lock was designed to lock when you lock the driver’s door but not unlock when you unlock the driver's door is beyond me. So I started reading different posts on how to accomplish this and the ideas were always a little funky, having to wire into the roof switch or adding a separate switch. I acquired a 2000-2003 service manual to examine the wiring schematic and found that if you were to short terminal #9 (yellow wire) to terminal #15 (white wire) on the Keyless Door Lock Control Module connector, the driver's door lock should command the passenger lock in both positions.
In fact it does! I shorted the two terminals from the rear of the Keyless Module connector, it took all of 5 minutes and it works great. Now if I need to unlock the passenger door from the inside, I just unlock the driver’s door from the inside."
