Automatic Door Lock Features
The BCM has these automatic 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 off, the BCM locks all doors five seconds
after closing all vehicle doors. |
• | Lockout prevention: When pressing lock on either door lock switch
with the key in the ignition cylinder and the driver's door open, the BCM
does not lock the doors. |
• | Lockout prevention override: When pressing and holding lock on
either door lock for at least three seconds, the BCM overrides the lockout
prevention thus locking all doors. |
• | Shift into PARK unlock: When shifting the transaxle into PARK,
the BCM unlocks all vehicle doors. |
• | Shift out of PARK lock: When shifting the transaxle out of PARK
with the driver's door closed, the BCM locks all vehicle doors. |
• | 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. |

Keyless Entry System Circuit Description
in Keyless Entry for more information regarding
the operation of the keyless entry system. Refer to
Body Control System Description
in Body Control
System for more information regarding the BCM.
All Door Unlock
The BCM unlocks all doors when pressing unlock once on either door lock
switch.
Pressing unlock on either door lock switch sends a ground signal to
the BCM through circuit 781. This action causes the BCM to supply voltage
from circuit 1540 to circuit 294 for 350)+/- 35) ms,
energizing all passenger door actuators and unlocking all passenger doors.
At the same time the BCM grounds circuit 1391, energizing the door
lock relay. The door lock relay, when energized, supplies voltage in circuit 694.
This action energizes the driver's door lock actuator and unlocks the driver's
door lock.
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 drivers door is open with
the key removed from the ignition switch, thus enabling the last door closed
locking feature. 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 overrides
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, Thu enabling the lockout
prevention feature. |
Pressing lock on either door lock switch sends a ground signal to the
BCM through circuit 780. When the BCM deems appropriate to lock the
doors (based on last door closed locking and lockout prevention features),
the BCM applies voltage from circuit 1540 to circuit 295 for
350 (+/- 35) ms, energizing all door actuators and locking all vehicle
doors.
Last Door Closed Locking
The BCM activates the last door closed locking feature when these conditions
are met:
• | A vehicle door is open (ground signal in circuit 49 or
727). |
• | The key is removed from the ignition switch, thus disabling lockout
prevention (open signal in circuit 80). |
• | Pressing lock once on a door lock switch or keyless entry transmitter. |
Upon pressing lock, the BCM to sound the chime 3 times. This provides
feedback indicating that the last door closed locking feature is active. 5
(+/- 0.5) seconds after all doors are closed, the BCM locks all doors.
To cancel this feature:
• | Press unlock on a door lock switch, or keyless entry transmitter. |
• | Turn the ignition switch to the accessory or on position. |
To override this feature: Press lock twice. The BCM locks all door immediately
with a door still open.
Lockout Prevention
The BCM does not lock the vehicle doors when pressing lock on either
door lock switch with the lockout prevention feature active. The BCM activates
the lockout prevention feature when these conditions are met:
• | A vehicle door is open (ground signal in circuit 49 or
727). |
• | The key is fully inserted in the ignition switch cylinder (ground
signal in circuit 80). |
Automatic Door Locks
When the lockout prevention feature is active, the BCM disables these
automatic door lock features:
• | Last door closed locking. |
• | Keyless entry system lock. |
Lockout Prevention Override
To override the lockout prevention feature, press and hold lock on either
door lock switch for three seconds. This action causes the BCM to lock all
doors immediately.
Shift Into PARK Unlock
The BCM unlocks all doors when these conditions are met:
• | The ignition switch is on. |
• | Transaxle is shifted into PARK by sensing a transaxle range PRNDL
signal via the Class II serial data link. |
The BCM unlocks the driver's door only when these conditions are met:
• | The ignition switch is on. |
• | Transaxle is shifted into PARK by sensing a transaxle range PRNDL
signal via the Class II serial data link. |
Shift Out of PARK Lock
The BCM locks the doors when these conditions are met:
• | All vehicle doors are closed (open signal in circuits 49
and 727). |
• | The ignition switch is on. |
• | Transaxle is shifted out of PARK or NEUTRAL by sensing a transaxle
range PRNDL signal via the Class II serial data link. |
