hey folks: i have a 1998 nissan altima with a three button keyless
entry system (lock, unlock, and panic). in the past, the only way to
lock the car door was by pressing the lock button. about a year ago, i
left the car for servicing and the keyless entry system changed. now,
unless the ignition is on, the car automatically locks roughly 5
seconds after it has been unlocked. this poses a big problem because
if i leave my keys in the ignition with the car off, the car will
automatically lock!
how do i reverse this to the way it originally was? i'm really afraid
that if if i take my car to the carwash or to inspection and leave the
keys in the ignition, they will get locked in.
thanks for your help....

Dealer needs to adjust your settings back to the way they were. SHOULD be at
no charge since they changed it but you never know.

He has a non factory alarm system
Nissan alarm systems do not have a passive locking feature

Actually i had my car serviced privately, and not at a dealer. Isn't
there a way to hold down a few buttons on the fob to turn off the
passive door lock system?

no , holding down both buttons on the remote either enables or disables the
audible feature when locking or unlocking the doors
