30 Second Auto Lock

[Stubey]

Hullo all,

I have a 2001 crv that does not have any door locking or unlocking buttons on the arm rest.

When I unlock the car, if I do not put the key in the ignition, then the doors all automatically re-lock after 30 seconds regardless of whether the doors have been opened or not.

This has only recently started to happen after having the battery disconnected.

How do I turn off this feature please?

How to Program a 2001 Honda CR-V Keyless Entry Remote Fob

Step by Step How to Programming Instructions:

 

Note:
 Entering the programming mode cancels all learned keyless remotes, so none of the previously programmed remotes will work. You must reprogram all of the keyless remotes once you are in the programming mode.

 You must complete each step within 5 seconds  of the previous step to keep the system from exiting the programming mode.

 1. Turn ignition switch to ON (II)

 2. Press the LOCK or UNLOCK button on one of the remotes. (An unprogrammed remote can be used for this step.)

 3. Turn ignition switch to LOCK (0)

 4. Repeat steps 1, 2 and 3 two more times using the same keyless remote used in step 2

 5. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II)

 6. Press the LOCK or UNLOCK button the same remote. Make sure the power door locks cycle to confirm you are in programming mode.

 7. Press the LOCK or UNLOCK button on each remote you want to program. Make sure door locks cycle after you push each remote button to confirm system has accepted the remote.

  8. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0) to exit programming mode.

  9. Test remote(s)

Hi Trevor,

 

Thank you so much for your reply. Unfortunately, although your instructions were spot on for programming a key fob, they did not turn off the automatic 30 second re-locking of the doors.

 

Does anyone else have any advice please.

Your wireless module behind the driver side door panel is not working properly. You will need to replace it with one that is fully functional. I've had two in my wife's 2001 CR-V that stopped working because water got in them. So when I bought this last one I made sure to put it in a medium sized sturdy Ziploc bag with the seal opening facing down, cut a small slit in the top left for the harness to get through then ziptied that part down and used a drill to quickly screw the screws back to keep the bag airtight where the screws go. Then I sealed the bottom. So far no water has penetrated the new module. The problem is water was seeping down into the module from the inner side of the door panel in my wife's CR-V. I don't know why, but this is a design defect in my opinion. I don't understand why the door weather strip can't keep water out of the driver side door panel, but my 2018 Honda Fit has the same problem, but worse! Water actually travels down and soaks the floor on the driver's side after a rain, and I have to dry it. I've actually called Honda and asked if there was a recall for this and the said no. Well, there should be!
