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.

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.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
