    Door handle touch unlock all doors?

    again, this is the feature you don't use a remote or a keypad for, it's for when you simply reach your hand in the door handle. it worked fine double tapping the unlock button on the remote. whether or not the feature is only with the limited, i could not tell you. i got it sorted though. :)

    Door handle touch unlock all doors?

    I just got it last week, so I haven't even programmed the door's keypad yet, lol. I was just asking about when i stick my hand in the door handle how it auto unlocks...it was only unlocking the driver's door, now it unlocks all 4. thanks! i'll keep that in mind as well.

    Door handle touch unlock all doors?

    I JUST bought this vehicle on Thursday, and it didn't come with a manual. I did a search on this forum before making this post and nothing came up relevant to my question, so maybe this will help someone in the future. It's a limited, with the feature, why not use it? it's there for that...

    Door handle touch unlock all doors?

    As of right now, when I reach my hand in the door handle, it only unlocks the driver's side door, which is inconvenient. I want it to unlock all 4, because my wife and kids are frequently with me. How can I reprogram it to unlock all 4? I'm sure it's possible. I was able to reprogram my Toyota...

    I knew I couldn't stay away from Ford forever! This thing is BADASS! Every single option possible, it has (from my understanding). It's a 2013 Ecoboost 4 cylinder limited Explorer. I talked the dealer down from 30k to 25,500 including it being certified. I also got 2.9 percent financing from...

    Few shots of the truck pulled outside for LSP. Last thing I didn't get a chance to finish before it started pouring was the windows and wheels. I'll get to them tomorrow. :)

    Really? some douchebag rated this thread 1*? You've gotta be kidding me. Anyway. Well, after about 2 hours on the hood, I finally made some progress. Didn't know how hard my clear was until I got to the hood. 6 total passes with the rotary: 3x with yellow diamond-cut pad w/m105 2x...

    friend of mine is in the business and did it for basically materials cost. we bartered most of the labor for computer work (my profession). I paid about 1k out of pocket. typically he charges about 2-3k for paintjobs like mine with all the bodywork/shaving that went on.

    it has a brand new paint job and the body shop cut me such a good deal because i agreed to do the finishing work (polishing). So all wetsanding, etc was done prior and this is fresh/soft paint, so my polishes finished down real nice for me. :)

    LOL! Thank you bro...here's the basic rundown of my process. Give or take a few steps: I washed the truck using a 2 bucket method. (one bucket filled with soap and water, the other bucket filled with plain water and a grit guard at the bottom to separate the dirt from the water). Next, I...

    Help! Truck spudders/backfires when cold!

    I'll check all the bolts but less than 6 months ago I put in a new motor and all fresh gaskets and never had an issue until now. I was thinking it's almost like it's starving for fuel or something...i changed the fuel filter when i put the motor in 'cause it had been sitting for about a year...
