07 ford transit autolocking

evosteo

Hi all is there a way to turn off the auto locking function of my transit? I only have it a few days and its doing my head in having to turn the engine off everytime i need to get into the back. Then when u set off again it locks all the doors. Cheers ste

Dealer can disable this.

Or, if you don't quite close fully the sliding door it won't lock any of them.

Probably safer as you never know who could be passing and see a chance of taking the van.

Is there not a button in the cabin to lock/unlock the doors?

came across this while looking for a solution......

Method


1. Turn on the ignition to position II so all the dash lights come on but don't start the engine.

2. Using the button on the door handle, lock and unlock the door 3 times (don't open the door).

3. Turn off the ignition.

4. Turn on the ignition to position I.

5. Using the button on the door handle, lock and unlock the door 3 times (don't open the door).

6. Turn off the ignition.

7. Turn on the ignition to position II but dont start the engine - a beep will sound.

8. Lock and unlock the door once as before - a confirmation beep will sound.

No and even worse you have to stop the engine and press the unlock back and side door button on the key.

this is handy enuf to do , but has to be done on ford computer as the settings in the body control module need to be altered , we charge 50 euro for it .can be done while u wait .if thats any use to you.

cheers jedi, its a fleet van so im gonna see if i can get them to do it for me before i decide to fork out, would you know if dublin tunnel commercials or coolock commercials would have the kit to do it??????? they would be the 2 garages i would use the most.

if your out around ratcoole call in to blackchurch motors we,l do it while you wait , that outlocking would drive you mad
