Comfort access rear door handles

Just wondering if other people with comfort access can open the rear doors when the car is locked. The front doors respond immediately, but nothing happens if I try the back doors. I have a "glitch" in the main computer so the car will be going to the dealers and didn't know if I would have to have them look at the rear doors also.

There's no sensors on the back doors. You have to use your remote, or the button on the dash.

Mine won't work this way, unless you use the pass. side front door. It unlocks all doors when touched, but the driver's touch pad only unlocks the one door. I thought it was a strange anomaly.

Zeevette, to expand on Tracus' post. From the main menu, go into vehicle settings, should be a setting that says 'lock' or something like that. Call me crazy, but I set mine to unlock only the driver's door one that side to avoid unnecessary wear on the other three lock servos.

Okay, crazy. I've never had a lock cylinder fail. I've never even heard of anything other than the ignition cylinder failing.

Not the cylinder, the servo that actuates it. It has failed on my truck, but it's a Dodge.

I kinda understand the guy...
Call me crazy, but I am using the wipers as less as possible to not scratch the windshield... Makes sense?
(It is however bombarded by the gravel that the city throws on the streets.. )

Haha. The things my old BMW had die were the things I never expected. The auto dimming mirror dripping heavy metal onto the center console. The rear shock mounts lasting a shorter amount of time than it took to access them. The climate control crapping out and requiring a whole new ECU. But the locks and wipers worked fine.

My technical argument is sound: the servos are rated to a certain number of cycles, the more you use them the shorter they last. I did, however, preface that argument with 'call me crazy' not 'stupid' to avoid using windshield wipers :P. Welcome to the world of an OCD who waxes his tool chest and cleans his drill bits after each use.

I throw my drill bits is the metal bin after I use them maybe 3-4 times. Cheaper to borrow them from work than buy a drill doctor.

I can't do any home improvement projects without beer. The alcohol really helps me accept the builders' 'that's close enough' dimensional tolerances.
