FEH -Remote for keyless entry
Hello Group,
The programming on the remote for keyless entry to my FEH '07 has changed somehow. It used to unlock only the driver's door on the first click and the remaining doors on the second click. Now it unlocks all the doors on the first click and attempts to do the same again on the second click. Maybe it's the remote's programming, maybe the car's system... Anyone had this experience? Even better, anyone know how to fix this problem? Thanks, John |
Re: FEH -Remote for keyless entry
I think what you are referring to is One Step Door Unlocking vs. Two Step Door Unlocking:
Here's what the 2008 manual has to say about this configurable feature: (edited with the answer first) Switching from two step to one step door unlocking Unlocking can be switched between two step and one step door unlocking by pressing and holding both the lock and unlock buttons simultaneously on the remote entry transmitter for approximately 4 seconds. The turn signal will flash twice to indicate that the vehicle has switched to one step Definition of the two modes: Two step door unlocking 1. Press unlock button and release to unlock the driver’s door. Note: The interior lamps will illuminate if the lamp is in the DOOR position. 2. Press unlock button and release again within three seconds to unlock the passenger doors, the liftgate and liftgate glass. The battery saver feature will turn off the interior lamps 10 minutes after the ignition is turned to the 1 (OFF/LOCK) position. One step door unlocking If the one step door unlocking feature is activated, press and release once to unlock all of the doors, the liftgate and liftgate glass. Note: The interior lamps will illuminate (refer to Illuminated entry information later in this section), if the control on the overhead lamp is in the DOOR position. One step door unlocking If the one step door unlocking feature is activated, press and release the unlock button once to unlock all of the doors, the liftgate and liftgate glass. Note: The interior lamps will illuminate (refer to Illuminated entry information later in this section), if the control on the overhead lamp is in the DOOR position.

Re: FEH -Remote for keyless entry
Of course he has a 2007. My intent was to set him in the right direction. I didn't want to have to download the 2007 Owners Guide but since that wasn't good enough for you... Does this excerpt from the 2007 manual look familiar?
"Switching from two step to one step door unlocking Unlocking can be switched between two step and one step door unlocking by pressing and holding both the lock and unlock buttons simultaneously on the remote entry transmitter for approximately 4 seconds. The parklamps will flash twice to indicate that the vehicle has switched to one step unlocking. Repeat the procedure to switch back to two step unlocking." (2007 FEH Owners Guide, Page 113) Next time I'll just say, RTFM... |

Hi, Chris
This worked perfectly as described. You also pointed me in the right direction for future reference -- lots to be found in that owner's manual! Thanks very much, John |

Unlocking can be switched between two step and one step door unlocking by pressing and holding both the lock and unlock buttons simultaneously on the remote entry transmitter for approximately 4 seconds. The turn signal will flash twice to indicate that the vehicle has switched to one step It's always nice to have tips like this that a person doesn't find out from the manual without spending hours with it. |
Re: FEH -Remote for keyless entry
I was able to switch to the one step locking today, but it took about 5 seconds.
