Default Unlocking doors issue keyless

Ok,

Everytime over the last month I go to unlock my doors by sticking my hand behind the door handle, there are 6 beeps like the alarm button has been hit 3 times in a row. Is something wrong? Also, I have used the manual to change the setting to ALL doors by holding down the LOCK, UNLOCK, PANIC button and using the screen to select ALL doors. This works for ALL doors except driver side passenger door. What is wrong here?

Thanks

You need to go to the dealer to change your LPS (Lexus Personalized Settings) here is a link to it. http://www.lexus.com/pdf/service/GS_LPS.pdf

thats not it though, Ive had that done before when I bought the car. This is really weird, when I stick my hand behind the handle, it beeps 6 times as if it is telling me something, alarm, something isnt right. Not sure why.

from what was sent, nothing on there talks about 6 beeps.

I guess I am going to call service and see what they can tell me.

Mine one time was doing something like this not sure how many beeps but what was wrong was that my passenger side door wasnt locking so when I come back to car it would do that like if the alarm went off, check all your doors next time to see if they all are locked before trying to open

This is one of the option, as this is how my car is curretly setup. You'll need to go back and change the settings and make sure you select all doors.

How old is the battery in your remote? Batteries are cheap and replacement is easy, I'd start there.

So, I tried again this morning to see if the door even worked when I was unlocking or locking via the remote and it locks, but does NOT unlock. WEIRD!!! SMH

I will get a new battery for the remote today to see if this is it but when my battery in my remote had died before it never acted like this, it just didnt work.

Oh well, I will try everything I can.

Is it a possibility that the actuator could be broke for unlocking, but ok for locking? Is this even possible?

Try locking and unlocking each door from that door and see if they are all working properly

Mine was doing that. I would go up to the car and try to unlock the car keyless, and it wouldnt open. I would have to use the unlock button on the key to open it.. I changed battery on the remote of the key and it works perfect now
