Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Power Door Lock System
The power door lock system locks and unlocks all four doors with the driver's master door lock switch and the passenger's door lock switch. The doors and the tailgate (without power) can be locked and unlocked using the key in the driver's door key cylinder switch. If the key is turned counterclockwise, all the doors and tailgate lock. If the key is turned clockwise once, the driver's door unlocks, and when the key is released, then turned again, the other doors and tailgate unlock.
The doors and tailgate can also be locked by pushing down on the lock knob on the driver's door. Pulling up on the lock knob only unlocks the driver's door. The lock knobs on the other doors only lock and unlock that door. If the key is in the ignition switch, and a door is open, the doors will not lock using the master door lock switch.
