2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Question on door locks?

[GOT-Torque]

Should the doors unlock when the truck is turned off?



They automatically lock when you start moving over a certain speed, just wondering if they should unlock automatically when the key is turned off?



Thanks

Got annoyed with the auto locks. Turned it off.

Tell me how?



I hate the stupid things.

If I remeber, the instructions are in the owners manual. My wifes 05 Dodge Caravan was the same way. If you don't have a amnual let me know, and I will try to find it in mine.

One locked, I think when you stop and just pull the door handle, the door will open. At least that is what mine does. Does yours not work this way

 

[GOT-Torque]

Yes, but I often find myself needing to open the passenger door after I've hopped out (with the keys still in the ignition). So I have to run back around and hit the unlock button. It's happened often enough, that I'm annoyed with the auto lock feature.



I'll have to look in the manual and see what I find. Thanks!

Yep mine is exactly the same. The wife leave is locked untill I walk around to the the door for her and then she unlocks it.
