Disabling horn on locking doors

waddy whiteguts · **Posted:** Thu May 11, 2006 11:56 am

According to my factory manual for the 02 KJ: The rolling door lock feature can be toggled on/off with the DRB III tool only. I hate that feature and will likely have it disabled when I get a chance to get to a dealership or shop with the tool.

I have an 05 and got my horn to stop honking when you lock the doors, I'm looking for the post because someone posted on how to do it and it worked the first time. I just tried but couldn't get my honk back. :shock:

Found it.

Door lock 4-10 seconds, panic button = disable / enable horn chirp

Make sure you keep the lock button held down when you press the panic button.

Just checked and my honk came back

Hey Gringo Loco, I just tried this and my wife is _so_ pleased with me!

Many thanks,

Simon

Man, am I glad this post was started, I finally got rid of that annoying horn chirp!!!

Thanks a million!!!

Can the KJ be programed to unlock all the doors once you stop?

I don't think so.

Hey Gringo, I just double-checked what you suggested and it does not do quite do what you pointed out : what it did in my case was change the "activation" horn chirp for 2 shorter chirps instead (or, if I repeate the procedure, 1 "long" horn chirp) ... the deactivation horn chirp (2 beeps) remains as usual ...

Is it because my renny comes with the EVIC factory-installed ? Is it because it is assembled in Venezuela ?

Thanks ...

Arturo, I don't know. What year is your KJ? It could be because it's made out of the US. Have you tried holding the lock key longer?

Mine is 2006 ... it is just assembled out of the US (US specs and most of the parts). What do you mean by "holding the lock key longer" ? Longer than 10 secs while hitting the panics buttom ?

Thx !

Arturo, You should only have to hold the lock button for 4-10 sec, then while still holding the lock button press the panic button and release both buttons.

Code:

F.Y.I. Holding unlock for 5 sec. then pressing lock = all doors open on first press of unlock button...[quote]
Did this to my 03 Rennie & while it does work, I have a non factory alarm and what happens is then the alarm will go off when I press unlock and it won't turn off till I program the fob back the other way! I was out there with the alarm going off and the ignition wouldn't start either till I programmed it back to "Open driver door only w/one press"! :shock: [/quote]
