door handle button locks

[towdog333]

Has anyone else experienced problems with the door handle button locks, mine won't unlock  any door on the truck when I press the button. I have tried both of my fobs n they won't unlock. The fobs them selves will unlock the door so it seems the batteries are good. Any help will be good, taking the truck to the dealer tomorrow for my ONE measly oil change n tire rotate,

Just found out that the door handle button locks the door but won't open ?????

I vaguely remember there being some settings in the infotainment for passive locks. Any chance one of those settings changed themselves?

Go into the settings menu in the infotainment system.  You can set what you want the handle buttons to do.

I didn't see anything in the setting menu for door handle locks, but will double check again. Plus they worked before and I know I didn't change nothing on any setting

It's in there.  Settings>Vehicle>Remote Door Lock ect. 

 

I don't see an option to fully turn off Passive unlock, just select between driver and all doors. But there is an option to turn off passive lock... I wonder if they relate. 

 

Wish they didn't have a stupid button to push.  My old car has touch sensitive pads on the back of the handle.  So naturally as you opened it, it unlocked.

Yeah that's a temporary disable with a re-enable.  If you go into   Settings>Vehicle>Remote Lock, Unlock, and Start you can set what the buttons do under Passive Door Lock and Passive Door Unlock.  Mine is set to unlock only drivers door if pressed once on the drivers door button and unlock all doors if pressed twice.  Pressing any door handle button while unlocked with lock all doors.  I also have automatic locking enabled for 5 secs after closing all doors

I go into my settings and I see nothing about door locks. Unless your truck is set up for that as an option, not sure

Hmmm.  The only thing I can think of is do you have Convenience Package 2? My truck is fully loaded so maybe the different radios have different options in the settings?

No I don't have that package but I wish I did.

That has to be why you dont have the additional options in the menu.  I will post some step by step pics shortly just to make sure.

Here are the complete step by step instructions to get to the Passive door locks settings.

 

1.  From the main menu, click Settings.

 

 

2.  Click Vehicle in the top right corner.

 

 

3.  Click the down arrow to scroll down once and then click Remote Lock, Unlock, and Start.

 

 

4.  Click the down arrow to scroll down once and then you will see the two Passive door options.  From here, you will be able to change the settings.

 

 

 

Let me know if you try this and you dont have these options.  Just curious if my theory about Convenience Package 2 is correct.

Not the solution you're looking for,  but GM has had the 'double-handle-pull' method for a long time.

 

Pull the door handle once to unlock the door.

Pull again to open the door. 

 

It will also work on non-driver doors passengers to get out when truck is still in gear.

Mone does that to get out while in gear but doesn't work for getting in.
