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,

If my key is in the same pocket as my phone the door handle buttons will not work. Switch the key to an empty pocket and works no problem. Just an FYI for you guys. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6013 using

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

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?

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.

      With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
