Stuck in valet mode!


Just got my beautiful 04. The keyless entry stopped working. Got a new battery for it, didn't help. Got a new fob (in case transmitter bad), wouldn't program. (did the whole on off on off on off, button button button, unlock unlock deal).

Took it to the dealership. Mechanic did the same on off deal. COuldn't get it to program either, but he did some move that made the horn honk and trunk open. He said that the passenger actuator is stuck and is keeping the car in valet mode, preventing the ability to program the keyless entry.

I don't get it though. The open door light isn't on. The passenger door locks and unlocks, the interior lights come on when the door opens as well as turn off.

ANYONE have any ideas???? THANKS!!!!!
