You learn something new every day
OK, I'm slow. After six weeks, I just discovered today that you can lock/unlock the hatchback using the door locks on the driver's side door. I found out by accident while loading stuff in the back end today. And I complained for the first week or so that there was no way to do this like you could with my last two Civics. I hated having to get my key out to lock/unlock the back end. I guess I should read my owner's manual more carefully. :rolleyes:

That's a feature on the Sport version; the base Fits have a keyhole in the tailgate like the front doors do.
|
Owner's manual states it works on all models with power door locks.

Thank god I have the Sports model...

I have a base and I can unlock the Hatch with the driver's side lock...I've actually never used that lock that's directly on the hatch.
|
While I like this feature, I can't believe that they eliminated the manual key lock on the passenger side and hatch on the Sport. What if your car's battery is dead?

Anyway, i think even if the cars battery can't turn the engine, it will however have enough juice to power lock/unlock the doors. |

It's too bad they did not use the same system as the RSX. If the front doors to the RSX are unlocked the hatch is as well. All you need to do is pull the handle and lift. Great system, honda should have used it with the rest of their cars.
|
It does work that way. If you unlock the Sport from the remote, even the hatch is unlocked. If you unlock the driver's door on the US base or CDN LX and hit the power door unlock, the hatch unlocks.
|
My bad. That is good to here though. Obviosly I have not spent enough time with the Fit yet.
|
what would be nice is for them to put in the system from the TSX.. hold the unlock button and the windows roll down.. hold the lock button and the windows roll up if they are down

While it is nice to have a clean look, I would've preferred to have the rear keyhole in the Sport.
Because you I'm sure the power locks will never ever fail or have problems. :rolleyes: |
