How to turn off door locks on 2015 jeep patriot. This video shows you how to use the autostick in the 2015 jeep patriot. Using the the flashlight look into the hole in the plastic cover. In my case i would probably never know there was an issue. I would think that if the door button locks the doors then it is not the tipm but the remote key module which is separate.
I don t understand why you would want to permanently turn off the alarm. The jeep has been brought in for service at least four times due to the locking system. I never lock my doors with the key fob but always lock it with the door button. Stop the honk when you lock the doors using the fob.
You did not mention whether the door button to lock the doors worked or not. Press and hold the lock button on the fob for at least 5 seconds while still holding the lock button. Using the screwdriver pry out the plug to gain access to the back of the latch mechanism. Press the menu button on the dash until personal settings displays.
On the last service date i was advised after my jeep had been in the repair shop for a month that the inoperable locking door mechanism was a safety feature despite it not appearing as a safety feature in the owner s manual guide. The only time that you will set off the alarm when it is armed when you are unlocking it is if you use your key to unlock the door. If you use the fob to lock and unlock there is no problem. Put the gearshift in park and crank the engine.
I would rather have the alarm then have my jeep stolen.
