300m door-lock re-programming question
When I lock the doors on my 300m (using the key fob to set the alarm) then naturally all 4 doors will lock themselves. When I want to get back into the car, I'll press (one time) the alarm-deactivate button, but only the driver's door will unlock. Is there any way that ALL doors will unlock instead? I know that I have to hit the button twice to make all doors unlock, but that's a pain because it doesn't always work and I end up hitting the damn button 5 times to make sure all doors unlock. |

Might program the same as the vans, which is: For vehicles not equipped with the EVIC, the Remote UNLOCK feature can be enabled or disabled by performing the following procedu 1. Perform this operation while standing outside the vehicle. 2. Press the LOCK button for five to ten seconds. 3. While the LOCK button is pressed, (after five seconds) press the UNLOCK button. Release both buttons. The Remote Key Unlock feature can be reactivated by repeating the above procedure or by performing the procedure in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC), Customer Programmable Features section on vehicles so equipped. All-unlock-at-once seemed handy to me until I thought about how much easier it would be for someone to jump into the passenger side door when my wife is alone. I put it back to the default. Pat |

Is that one of the options in the EVIC? It may depend on the year of your car. Perce |

Allpar says that in '01, a more advanced EVIC was offered as an option. I have no idea what the difference is between the EVIC in my '00 vs anything newer. It looks like there is a cluster of 3 buttons located between the 2 overhead lights that I don't have - no idea what they're for. |

That sounds like a garage door opener (my '07 Dakota has the three-button cluster, and that's its purpose). |

No, I have 3 buttons located in the overhead display specifically for garage door operation. Look he http://www.allpar.com/cars/chrysler/300M.html About half way down the page there's a picture of the overhead console (partially obscured by a sun visor extender). Note the set of buttons positioned between the two overhead lights. I don't have those buttons. What are they for? Do I need them if I want to program my car so that all 4 doors unlock when hit the disarm button once on my keyfob? |

300m door-lock re-programming question
Have read your owners manual? The instructions are in there for many items
that the customer can program themselves. Including the press twice to unlock feature as well as fob and grey key programing.

One slides the glass panel back, one leaves it anchored at the front but raises the back end (works very well for helping get hot air out of the car in a Las Cruces summer!), and the third closes it regular of which way you opened it. |

> Have read your owners manual? Yes. It mentions that I can reprogram the fob so that the trunk will open with only 1 press of the trunk-release button (not 2 presses) but it says nothing about reprogramming so that all doors will unlock with only 1 press. It also says that once the vehicle is moving that the doors will lock automatically - but it doesn't say how to deactivate this feature. But I asked around a while ago and did deactivate this feature. So just because it's not in the manual doesn't mean it can't be done. Anyone know how? Joe Pfeiffer wrote: > > What are they for? > > Ah, that's for the moonroof I'll bet you also don't have A few minutes after I posted that, I realized that's probably what the buttons are for. No, I don't have the moon roof (we call them sun roofs up here). |

OK, I realize that your car is several years newer than our old '96 Stratus, but on that car some of the settings could only be changed by the dealer, presumably with the scan tool. Perce |
