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.

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.

    • 3.59 Kroger’s in Montgomery Tx. 20 cents higher than most around here. Very unusual. Saturday they were 3.49. 
    • Starting at 17 running parts for my father’s construction business to haul our equipment. Eventually doing shows, sales and training after purchase. I drove a minimum of 50K miles a year. Half hauling something. After retiring 30K miles a year to the last 2 years 15K miles a year. 2/3rds highway driving. The major contribution to fatigue for me is from anticipation and awareness. I just don’t relax. Too many idiots on the road. There’s two kinds. The group that never leave the left lane tied together afraid to let anyone in doing 80. They’re mostly on weekends. Then the left lane sleepers usually next to a tractor trailer not advancing. Eventually the tractor trailer will drift over the sleeper will wake up. The train moves and the tailgaters who are usually mad as hell. You definitely don’t want to mix with them. The tail wagging bumper puller’s with under powered trucks are holding the tractor trailer up. That bunch are dangerous. I usually pace ahead all that. Unless there’s a gap when I can chill and let the speeders pass. I tried all different types of driving. I stay to the right except to pass, it’s the law that’s getting in forced more now because of road rage. I was so happy when my wife didn’t want to do the camping life. I had enough of pulling for work. The family has a bus and fifth wheel. I haven’t driven either one since retiring. No thanks. 
    • Yesterday a suggested youtube video thumbnail caught my attention so I watched through it and it was a bunch of short clips someone gathered together of people pulling trailers, a lot of them were bumper pull holiday trailers and a pickup or suv pulling it. a few fifth wheels as well, some motorhome crashes also. The tail wagging the dog theme was quite evident in numerous self inflicted accidents that took out vehicles around them sometimes in the process as the unit finally swung around and flipped over in the middle of the highway. Or the other classic which literally could be called "I forgot the trailer was back there" in passing another vehicle on a multi lane one way freeway and then cutting back in line before the back of the rv trailer had passed the front of the passed vehicle and often in front of a tractor trailer and that never ended well. Or the wide kick out swing of the rear of a long travel trailer as they have so much overhang behind the axles and the trailer smashes into the side of vehicles in the next lane over ( typically sharp turns in city driving ). It makes one leery for good reason to be near an RV trailer after watching a video like that and be it on the highway, in town, or at a gas station where that rear end comes swinging around due to the fuel station being so cramped and not intended for larger trailers. I wonder how many officers have heard those words though "I forgot it was back there" as they investigate the accident LOL. 
    • $5.10 for regular at the Kroger   It's been 6 months... is this the "new normal" ?
    • Just because a person can buy a travel trailer or a motorhome doesn't mean they can drive it properly. My observation during my RVing years.
