Locking and unlocking doors

[Cobrajet]

If I'm sitting in the drivers seat I can lock and unlock both doors from my switch on the door. BUT if I'm in the passenger side the switch there will only LOCK the door. It wont unlock the door. Is this normal???
When using the key FOB it will lock both doors, but it wont unlock them. I need to use the key. When trying to unlock I get 2 chirps with the first turn of the key and 3 chirps (which should unlock the 2nd door)

Is this typical?

In 13 years and 145,000 miles this was the first time I remember ever using my key to unlock the doors. I works as you described, much like the key fob.
One turn (or one press of the fob button) unlocks the drivers side, while a second turn (or button press) unlocks the passenger door. It doesn't chirp when I use the key.

However, I am able to unlock BOTH doors from either the driver or passenger side switches. So yours is misbehaving.

The key will manually unlock the passenger door, but does not trigger any electric solenoids. Also, I found out that if you play with the dirver's door key too much, or in the wrong fashion, it sets off the alarm. D'OH! I think it was mad at me!

[I played with it some more. It set off the alarm if I used the key to unlock the doors and then opened the door. That just seems wrong! I think I'll stick with just using the key fob.]
