How do you change the way the doors unlock on the driver and passenger doors? Right now I have to press the unlock button to get out of the truck. It is almost like the doors are child locked, but if I press the unlock button I can then get out. I would like it to lock when I put in gear and unlock when I take it out of gear. I was wondering if I needed to take it to the dealer ship or if I could do it myself.

Hello,

On this year vehicle the doors will only unlock when you take the key out of the ignition.
They are not programable to unlock when put in park.
I know the 2001 and newer will unlock when put in park and are programmable.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
