I have a 2008 Mazda 3 and both key fobs ONLY unlocks the driver's door and not the other three. The switch on the door locks and unlocks all the doors so I think there is no wiring issue nor a solenoid issue. Both Fobs are original to the car.

Ny suggestions?

Uh push the unlock button twice.

It used to work properly, pressing the button twice within three seconds and all the doors unlocked but not any more.

Time for a new fob battery?

 

[marshfow]

Replaced the battery and nothing changed

That's odd, I've never experienced that. I even hacked up my key fob to make it work in an oem mx5 flip key and both unlock functions still work.

have you tried unlocking the doors from those doors (not the driver controls) and test your fob again?

 

[marshfow]

will try that now...

Is this something you have come across before?
