I have installed your Powerbolt, but when I push the Lock Button, it unlocks? What should I do? First remove the cover on the inside of the Powerbolt unit. On the right hand side under the batteries, you will notice that is says "Door Direction Jumper". If the cap is mounted on Prongs 1 & 2, carefully remove it and move it over so that it mounts Prongs 2 & 3. A is right handed, B is left handed. http://www.weiserlock.com/Support/Faq/50160000000HhmZAAS.aspx

First, remove the cover on the inside of the Powerbolt . On the right-hand side under the batteries, you will notice that it says" Door Direction Jumper". If the jumper is mounted on pins 1 & 2, then move it to pins 2 & 3. Or if it's already on @ & #, move it to pins 1 & 2.
Remove the cover. On the right hand side under the batteries you will notice that it says "Door Direction Jumper". If the jumper is located across prongs 1 & 2, move it to prongs 2 & 3, or vice versa. This controls the direction of the operation which makes the lock universal to doors with the hinges to the right or to the left.

Good luck--and please provide feedback if this helps!
Your problem sounds like this scenario: I have installed your Powerbolt, but when I push the Lock Button, it unlocks? What should I do? First remove the cover on the inside of the Powerbolt unit.

I'm assuming you are dealing with the Powerbolt, since you didn't mention the model of lock you have. This problem is probably because the "handedness" of the door is set opposite of your installation. That is, you may have what is called a "right-hand door" and the lock is set for a left-hand door, or vice versa. In other words, what side the door hinges are on and which way it therefore swings open.The Kwikset lock has an internal jumper which needs to be moved to another position to change the function.

Did you accidentally remove the jumper that determines the "handedness" of the lock?
