Automatic Door Lock Features
The body control module (BCM) controls the door locks. One of three
BCM types is installed on this vehicle based on vehicle equipment:
• | BCM type 2 provides power door locks, plus interior illumination
control, inadvertent load (battery rundown) protection, and chime functions. |
• | BCM type 3 provides BCM type 2 features plus the keyless entry
system (RPO AU0). |
The BCM type 2 has these door lock features:
• | All door unlock: The BCM unlocks all doors when pressing unlock
on either door lock switch. |
• | All door lock: The BCM locks all doors when pressing lock on either
door lock switch. |
• | Last door closed locking: When pressing lock on either door lock
switch with the ignition switch in the LOCK or OFF position, the BCM locks
all doors five seconds after closing all vehicle doors. Refer to
Automatic Door Lock System Description
. |
• | Lockout prevention: When pressing lock on either door lock switch
with the key in the ignition cylinder and the driver's door is open, the BCM
does not lock the doors. Refer to
Automatic Door Lock System Description
. |
• | Lockout prevention override: When pressing and holding lock on
the LF door lock switch for at least three seconds, the BCM overrides the
lockout prevention thus locking all doors. Refer to
Automatic Door Lock System Description
. |
• | Sliding door delayed locking: The BCM locks all doors three seconds
after closing sliding door(s). |
The BCM type 3 (RPO AU0) has these door lock features (in addition to
BCM type 2 features):
• | Remote driver door unlock: The BCM unlocks the driver's door when
pressing unlock on the keyless entry transmitter. |
• | Remote all door unlock: The BCM unlocks all vehicle doors when
pressing unlock on the keyless entry transmitter again within five seconds
of pressing unlock. |
• | Remote all door lock: The BCM locks all vehicle doors when pressing
lock on the keyless entry transmitter. |
For more information regarding the keyless entry system refer to in
Keyless Entry.
For more information regarding the body control system refer to in
Body Control System.
All Door Unlock
The BCM unlocks all doors when pressing unlock once on either door lock
switch.
All Door Lock
• | The BCM locks all doors when pressing lock once on either door
lock switch with all doors closed. |
• | The BCM delays door locking when the driver's door is open with
the key removed from the ignition switch, thus enabling the last door closed
locking feature if the locking control mode is in mode 3 or 4.
A first press of lock on a door lock switch initiates this feature.
This causes the BCM to sound the chime 3 times, indicating last
door closed locking is active. Five seconds after all doors are closed,
the BCM locks all doors. Pressing lock twice on a door lock switch
bypasses the last door closed locking feature, thus the BCM locks
all doors immediately with a door still open. |
• | The BCM does not lock the doors when the driver's door is open
and the key is fully inserted in the ignition switch, thus enabling the lockout
prevention feature. |
Sliding Door Delayed Locking
The BCM initiates the sliding door delay locking feature when pressing
lock on either door lock with a sliding door open, on one of these conditions
is met:
• | The ignition switch in ACC or RUN position. |
In addition, the BCM initiates the sliding door delay locking feature
when the shift out of PARK lock feature is active with a sliding door open.
When the sliding door delayed locking feature is initiated (see criteria
above), the BCM locks all doors three seconds after closing sliding door(s).
Sliding Door Delayed Locking Override
The BCM locks all doors when pressing lock on either door lock switch
or keyless entry transmitter during the three second delay period. This action
overrides the sliding door delay locking feature. However, the
BCM will not lock doors if the lockout prevention is active. Refer
to
Automatic Door Lock System Description
.
If a sliding door was open at the time the BCM locks all doors (override
feature activated), the BCM initiates the sliding door delay locking feature
after closing sliding door(s).
Sliding Door Delayed Locking Cancellation
The BCM cancels the sliding door delay locking feature when pressing
unlock on either door lock switch or keyless entry transmitter.
When opening a sliding door during the three second delay period, the
BCM cancels the sliding door delay locking feature and waits for sliding door(s)
to close again. When closing sliding door(s), the BCM re-initiates
the sliding door delay locking feature.
