Car Forum / Ford / Ford Focus / March 2007Unlock ALL doors on remote unlock instead of drivers door
Hi, Does anyone know the trick which switches the remote locking to automatically unlock ALL the doors instead of just the drivers on a single keypress? Thanks, Nick...

The horn will chirp and lights will flash to signal that you have altered the setting. You can repeat this procedure to switch between the "one press" mode and the "two press" mode. http://www.focushacks.com/index.php?modid=35 -- Don Off-hand I dont know the EXACT procedure. But, it's in my 2005 manual how you do it. Erks >Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > >Nick... I do not know what car you are talking about but some manufacturers do that as a safety measure. One can open the drivers door without unlocking the others, so that somebody whom you may not want in the car can not get inside. The balance of the doors can be opened as well by simply pressing the button twice. Some dealers install remotes on cars that do not have the remote option from the factory. Many of those are installed only on the drivers door mike > Off-hand I dont know the EXACT procedure. But, it's in my 2005 manual how > you do it.

Many of those are installed only on the drivers door On a UK Focus hold down both the lock and unlock buttons together until the indicator lights flash and you get a chirp sound. This should only take around two seconds. To get back to the other mode repeat the procedure. mode 1 = unlock only the drivers door with a single unlock key press (all door with a double key press) mode 2 = unlock all doors (except boot) with a single key press.

IMO that should be the default unlock mode; drivers door only with one push. In NA one push does the drivers door a second push does the others, BUT NOT the trunk- thank goodness.

Glad you and Ford agree; that *is* the default! > In NA one push does the drivers door a second push does the others, BUT > NOT the trunk- thank goodness. The trunk (boot) is on a separate button on all European cars also. Chris SignatureRemove prejudice to reply.
