Default Gs300 lock problem


Im sorry if this is a repeitive question. Im sure i can find the answer browsing the website but nobody experienced the same thing i encountered. So i noticed my driver key hole was damaged (theft attempted) and like the curious person i am, i inserted my key to see if it was still able to open the door. Suddently i hear the door lock click twice and my windows and moonroofed opened! On top of that , now my power locks dont work. Everytime i click the lock or unlock button on either the passanger or driver side, i hear two clicks on the driver side. Non of the doors unlock, only the driver door unlocks and locks. I have a viper alarm hooked onto the lock system and before it was able to lock and unlock all doors now the button only works to unlock and lock driver door. help!!!!


(Note: i just bought this car last week! )

I think you unprogramming your viper alam system. You need to found a viper alarm shop to check that system for you. Or the inside dipstick that is in the driver door that is out of the plastic dipstick holder. You need to pull out the panel door and see if that dipstick is on position or out before go to any viper or alam shop. Good luck.

When you unlock the drivers door from the outside with the key and hold it in the unlock position all of the Windows go down and the moonroof opens on all of our cars. Sounds like they damaged the key mechanism. There is probably damage to the door handle lock assembly, linkage or door lock actuator from being forced. Your going to have to take the door panel off and do some investigating. I would look up front door lock actuator replacement since it shows door handle removal and all the parts invovled
