auto door lock reciever ? ????? The BCM - body control module controls auto lock . Remote keyless entry - key fob lock's & unlock's door's . What problem are you having ? Won't lock when gear selector is move to drive or when going 5 mph ?

The BCM controls these functions:
• Audible warnings, refer to Audible Warnings Description and Operation in Instrument Panel, Gages and Console
• Automatic door locks, refer to Power Door Locks Description and Operation in Doors


your best bet , take it to a qualified repair shop.

This warning indicator is controlled by the BCM - body control module . You cant turn it off , you need to fix the faulty input switch that signals the BCM that the door is open .

As far as the sliding doors , pull the fuse's

Door ajar switch problem more then likely or wiring issue . The BCM - body control module won't turn off interior light , let door lock because it think's the door is open . The door ajar switch is a input to the BCM .

The first thing would be to have it checked for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes . Also check with an enhanced scan tool to see if the BCM shows ajar switch data (open or closed ? Do you know about body electronics ?

wd diff lock only locks the front to rear diffs not the 2 wheels on the same diff. To have both front wheels driving as you require will need limited slip diff in front or locker in front Be hard to steer in tight areas but they are available.

if unable to turn key in boot then you will have to drop the seats down inside and climb in. remove the rear door panel and move the release mechanism manually. Make sure the vac pipes are connected and the mechanism isnt siezed.

InInside the drivers door in the back of the storage compartment is the switch to open the fuel door.

fuel cap 96 gmc. locking cap 96 gmc. they should have the right one at auto zone or advanced auto. have a good day !

Is the remote control for the locks just not working? If the doors are unlocked, the trunk and cas tank cover should be unlocked as well. I have a slightly later model, but that's how it works with mine. Are you saying that you can manually open the doors with the key, but when you do, it doesn't unlock the gas door like normal? If so ,there's a manual pull tab in the trunk to open the gas tank flap on the same side of the trunk as the gas tank flap. After it's open, you can of course close the gas lid flap again, but it won't lock again if the auto-locking system isn't working. You'll have to get the dealer to replace the motor if it's gone out. This should get you in the gas tank for now though. Good luck!

there is a clicker thing that cuts the switch off when you turn the wheel it must be broken. Fuel gauge is controlled by the sending unit in the gas tank. thats a pain to replace, not to mention having to breathe gas fumes the whole time you do it. some cars you have to pull the tank and others you just have to take out the back seat and pull off a panel.

I have a 97 and there is no release for it. Just push on the right end of the gas cap door to open it. Hope that helps.
