Driver Door Auto-Unlock All Doors
Hello,
Up until recently as long as I had shut the car off, and removed the key
when I pulled the door handle to open up the drivers door all the other doors used to automatically unlock themselves. This was nice because if I had groceries or items in the back seat I would not have to hit the unlock button to open those doors.
Now recently it no longer automatically unlocks all of my doors, just the drivers door only.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks in advance

This is from the 4th generation (01-07) Dodge/Chrysler Minivans, but should be the same.

This feature will not operate if there is any manual operation of the power door locks (LOCK or UNLOCK).The UNLOCK Doors Automatically On Exit feature can be enabled or disabled by performing the following procedure:
1. Enter your vehicle and close all doors.
2. Fasten your seat belt. (Fastening the seat belt will cancel any chimes that may be confusing during this programming procedure.)
3. Insert the key into the ignition switch.
4. Within 15 seconds, cycle the key from the LOCK position to the ON/RUN position a minimum of four times ending in the LOCK position. (Do not start the
engine.).
5. Within 30 seconds, press the driver’s door lock switch in the UNLOCK direction.
6. A single chime will sound to indicate the feature has been changed.
7. To reactivate this feature, repeat the above steps.
8. If a chime is not heard, the program mode was canceled before the feature could be changed. If necessary, repeat the above procedure.
The UNLOCK Doors Automatically On Exit feature can be reactivated by repeating the above mentioned procedure or by performing the procedure in the EVIC, Customer Programmable Features section on vehicles so equipped.
