I KNOW there is an option to lock them when you take the car out of Park and also an option to lock them when you reach a certain speed (15mph ?) but I don't remember an option to not lock them at all. I'd have to research further.

 

I need to do this!!! Pls pls pls psl give me the instruction for this!!! I have my notes somewhere but I couldn't find it!!! :facepalm:


Well once u disable the auto lock when shifting from P to R/N/D then that'll solve his problem. But me, I need it to lock when I start moving. I don't know if the instruction is the same for gen 5 and 6 though...

I can confirm that this works for my Gen 6.5.

BIG thanks to u!!

 

And u have a gen 6 right?

 

When I get home today I will give this a try on my 2002 to see if it will work.

Thanks
jcs

 

Reply back as to whether or not the above procedure works for you. I have an '02, and I changed mine. Our mode change indicator is slightly different, I believe, being indicated by a flashing sequence of the "door open" indicator light.

 

I didn't know I could do something like this myself, will have to give it a try thanks

 

Now whenever me or a passanger opens the door while the car is in D (while stopping of course I'm not stupid), all doors will automatically lock themselves up when the car starts moving.

Locks when shift out of P and unlocks when shift to P. I'm good!
