My Sister in Law has a Grand Am that locks the doors whenever the key is on and you close the doors. She has locked her keys in the car multiple times. We don't have a manual for it. Does anyone know how to turn this annoying feature off? Thanks.
there's probably a fuse that it goes through. There may be other things she wants running through that same fuse, however.
I'd say if you can find the sensor that tells it that the doors are shut and disconnect it, that would probably do it. It's probably in near the hinges similar to how there is a button in there that turns the dome light on when the door is open.
i had this same problem with my daughters 95 grand am GT its been a while but i fixed the problem i'm sure i removed the drivers side door panel and disconnected the automatic lock wires located next to door latch this disabled the drivers door lock passenger side still locks but drivers side has to be locked manually and no more keys locked in car.....
