Is passive entry the only option if I want all doors to unlock?

I do like the WAL (Walk away lock) feature, however.. I've had my 2024 Flash for only a few weeks and there has been MANY times where I've been loading/ unloading the truck (presents or tools in the rear doors).. and I when I walk back to the house for another load, and walk back to the truck/ need to open the back doors, I have to find the FOB, and press the unlock key. The dumbed down version I suppose is simply to leave the door open while I am making trips to and fro. :)

I'd prefer a forscan resolution.. or rather I was hoping to find one where I could modify the unlock feature to unlock all doors when Walking back up to the truck.

The only thing I can find is another post mentioning Passive entry.. which requires a bit more than I was wanting to do.

So, is there any other way to modify the Lighting where it will auto unlock all doors when walking up?

Unfortunately I don’t think that’s a thing. You have to put your hand into the handle to unlock truck. If somehow I’m wrong hopefully someone will correct.

If you look in settings there should be a setting for the key fob where clicking the button once opens all doors rather than opening just the driver side (this is the default).

It's possible changing this setting to unlock all doors will work for you. I don't have the features you have to confirm, but I did notice something interesting about changing this setting: the keypad on the door unlocks all doors now. Whereas before it only unlocked the drivers side. So the setting isn't just for the key fob.
