    I used the ice scrapper as a wedge on top of the door to pry it open but used a plant stake and fed it thru the opening to the electric door opener. The plant stake was the fiberglass kind about 1/4" thick and 4' long, and was stiff enough not to bend as I pushed the switch that unlocks the doors. Worked great!

first use your remote, lock-unlock-lock-unlock 5 times. use the key to unlock the door. lock with remote. If this fails, disconnect battery for 5 min. reconnect, should reset control module..

2004 Laredo remote unlock works only with a foot or so of car

Have 2004 laredo that the power locks/windows do not work from the inside and the dome lights stay on after the car is running and the locks do not lock automatically after it starts running? Now car will not start, will not turn over. When I turn key back to off position - the lights and dashboard go crazy. Any thoughts!

Alarm sounding upon unlocking door with key

there is a sensor that tells the anti theft module you used the key to unlock the door, it is attached to the door latch or lock cylinder, u must have disconnected the wire to the sensor, so it thinks u are breaking into the car.

Automatic door locks wont work on my 2004 jeep grand cherokee

There is a broken wire in the rubber casing between the door and the vehicle. Take the rubber casing off and you will more than likely find a broken wire or one about to break. Been there and done that.
