Question How to turn off auto locks?

When I start the truck, the locks automatically lock. Is there a simple way to turn this feature off?

Also, when the truck is running with the lights off, the odometer and clock in the radio stay illuminated. Is there a way to turn those off?

Thanks,
Mike

Are you sure the doors lock as soon as you turn the key? My truck doesn't lock the doors until the speed exceeds 15mph. As for the odometer and radio illumination I think you are out of luck, but if you do find a way to dim those I would like to hear about it.

Before I got my alarm, mine locked the doors at 15mph (or 20mph?)

After I got the alarm, the doors lock when I start the engine.

Are you sure you don't have an aftermarket alarm on it?

You should be able to turn that off.
Well, maybe not you, but the Dealership if it is a Dodge alarm.

If you have the install manual (which you most likely don't) it would have a walk through of all the features and how to enable/disable them.
