2008 Police Dodge Charger

I have a 08 Police Dodge Charger....while the car is running and in park I cannot lock the doors with the door lock or the keyless entry remote. Do you know of any way to bypass this. As a police officer, its important to be able to lock the doors. If I could find a wiring diagram I may be able to figure out something to change this....thanks

    I have a the same problem as ssmith 238's I found two options 1 start the car with the mechanical key and when you reach your destination shut off the car and imediatly start the car and the key fob will lock and un lock your car. 2 lock your door manually with the knob but then you will have to use the manual key. if some one has a better way let us know please.

    I have the same problem and it sucks. Is there any way to have a dealer change the settings? What is the point of keyless entry when you can't enter without a key?

    +1. As a police offier I may have to lock my doors with the remote while the car is running or open the trunk when the car is running. There must be a way to override or disable this "feature".

SOURCE: Automatic Headlights don't work on Impala - Police Package.

Its called a multi functional switch in your steering column. The part is 525.00 at the dealer but can get online for about 365.00. Normally the high beams work and lows do not. 1.2 hours to replace this part.

My remote will not unlock or lock my doors

The fuse box is in the trunk you can't get it too. Cleaver design there if I do say so myself. However my guess is that your key has failed, and you need to get a new one. I have seen on the older keys the contacts inside the fob letting go. They can be soddered back together. I have not had this happen however on 08 models and newer.

2002 Dodge Caravan 3.3 liter 6, 36,000 original miles..Car runs fine, but headlights and E-flashers just started blinking on & off, alternately, like a police car would do. Kept on, no change, even...

sounds like you have a security problem, (antitheft) , when it acts up take the key and put it in the outside door lock switch with the door shut and window down and lock and unlock the drivers door with the key,it should quit, if not try locking and unlocking car with key fob(remote lock,unlock switch on key chain), if that dont work , you have further prob. with security system and take it to a shop. if it quits with the key process and then comes back on , the sensitivity might be to high. does the horn go off with the lights?

Replace door handle and lock 08 dodge charger

check that all screws have been removed from door. Hidden screws often found behind reflectors in door. Use prying tool and gently pull bottom of door panel away from doorm on/in door handle and near mirrow within door jam. Lay on the ground and look between the door and panle. You can usually see the plastic clips holding the door in place. Once bottom is loose you should be able to lift the door up and off of the door. Watch for power window and lock wires when removing. If manual windows, slide a rag behind window crank and move back and forth to remoce clip which holds crank on.
