Door Lock Question - 10/23/2007 3:08:35 PM    gocartone Posts: 125 Joined: 10/2/2007 From: Superior, WI Ashland, WI Status: offline Do Blazers have auto locks when driving? Like in most new cars when you go over like 15mph it locks the doors?  Mine doesn't and was wondering if thats how they are or if somethings wrong.  I tried searching for this but couldn't really find anything.  Thanks. _____________________________ 2001 Blazer 4X4 LT 1999 400EX Grim Reaper BMX Post #: 1

RE: Door Lock Question - 10/23/2007 3:45:57 PM    drperry Posts: 3926 Joined: 1/12/2007 From: GP AB CA Status: offline Or they've been programmed not to lock... Or someone cut a wire somewhere... I know on my old Lumina, it would lock when you put it into gear, but would never unlock... So I cut one wire on the chime module, and the door stopped locking... _____________________________ (in reply to gocartone) Post #: 5

I haven't got out to try it yet but my owners manual (well the gmlink one for a 2001) shows the same steps! _____________________________ 2001 Blazer 4X4 LT 1999 400EX Grim Reaper BMX (in reply to swartlkk) Post #: 15

RE: Door Lock Question - 10/24/2007 5:29:18 PM    gocartone Posts: 125 Joined: 10/2/2007 From: Superior, WI Ashland, WI Status: offline I would think it would work for all of them...it said in the owners manual that all of them come from the factory with auto locks that never lock like mine were.  If you have a mygmlink just search for automatic door lock in the owners manual. _____________________________ 2001 Blazer 4X4 LT 1999 400EX Grim Reaper BMX (in reply to swartlkk) Post #: 18

RE: Door Lock Question - 10/24/2007 5:54:09 PM    swartlkk Posts: 15286 Joined: 5/1/2005 From: Waterloo, NY Status: online Checked a 98 Blazer manual and the manual for my old 2000 Bravada earlier today, but no dice... Seems this may be an '01+ only thing with the user-programmable thing.  Someone needs to try it out with a 2000 or earlier model. _____________________________ Kyle- My Restoration Projects Please Do Not PM for Tech Help (in reply to gocartone) Post #: 19
