The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.

Condition/Concern:

A condition has been reported that will cause the door locks to cycle when driving and or become inoperative from the door lock switches. When this condition is present you will also notice the door locks are inoperative from the switches, but they work normally with the key fobs. (if equipped with Remote keyless Entry)

Recommendation/Instructions:

It is recommended that you install the Tech-2 on the vehicle and look at the door lock switch status (RFA data-list) it should be reading "Idle". If it reads lock or unlock then check for a possible sticking door lock switch and replace it as necessary.

Please follow this diagnostic or repair process thoroughly and complete each step. If the condition exhibited is resolved without completing every step, the remaining steps do not need to be performed.
