Default 2004 RX330 Power Door

I just got a 2004 RX330 and when It is locked the power door button will not open if vehicle is locked. You have to unlock all doors for it to open. Some vehicles will open the trunk when trunk button is pushed in. Thanks.

Welcome to Club Lexus, thejimmyd.

That is the standard operating procedure for the RX. It is tied to the back doors.

I just found this out the other day! I thought it quit, but it was because the doors were locked.

Ok, so I am reading this thinking this is not the case on the 350 (I have an '07)? Because I don't have to unlock the doors to use the fob to open the rear door. I can put something in and close it again and everything is still locked... at least I think! The doors are locked, but does this mean the hatch is now unlocked?

My 2007 RX350 also will open with the key fob and the doors will remain locked. You can only do it that with the fob. Manually opening of the hatch will not work if the doors are locked.
