Door Locks

[LeeroyJ]

There is no lock button on the front passenger door. They may have forgotten to connect the wire for the drivers door lock.

Has anyone looked at the passenger door to see if the wiring is there to install a door unlock button in place of that blank?

I asked the dealer last week when I was in for some maintenance. They assured me there was no wiring there behind the blank. Don't know if I believe it though. It's pretty easy to remove the door card to check. I did it on the driver's side when they forgot to plug the switch back in after the door lock recall exchange. I'll probably check on that this weekend.

Thanks, will be interested to learn what you discover.

I'm not sure about Ineos, but for other manufacturers' factories that I've been to, doors have been one area of the assembly line that is still largely manual (i.e. the speakers, wiring harnesses, locking mechanisms, etc. are done by humans rather than robot arms). So that might explain some of disparity in how often the buttons get stuck?
