Auto-Lock Door Bypass
 

Anyone know how to bypass the autolocks on the car? I hate it when a car thinks it knows more than me and I have many reasons why I do not want the doors to lock automatically.

Thoughts????

Can't you manually unlock them, or not unless youre below 11 mph?

Many reasons? Like what :confused:

I have never really had a problem with them. What's your reasoning behind this?

Have they even made a car in the past 10 years that didn't have the auto lock?

Do you get in and out of the car every few minutes? Like a pizza delivery person...rofl!!!


My G35 does not auto lock....

You can turn it off, the process is described in the owners manual. It was something like turn the car to the On position (but not started) and then hold down the lock button for 5 seconds until the lights flash. Repeat for the unlock button if you wish to disable auto unlock.

Read owners manual. It is controlled by left side gauge where MPG, maintenance, etc., and goto SETTINGS, and change it.

Thanks for the responses everyone. I asked the dealer and they said it could not be done so thought I would hit this tread. Never occured to me to check the OM so certainly know better next time I have a question. Common sense escaped me... :-(

In my line of work, I need to be able to respond to issues and quickly... Thinking about buttons to push to get out of my car is not something I need as a distraction. :-) Goes for airbags and seatbelt warnings as well, I do not like companies forcing their ideas about safety on me. :-) Besides, I help pay for the roads and support police officers when I receive a ticket for not wearing my seatbelt. Call me an idiot if you will but if I want to get out of my car in a hurry, I want to be able to.

On a second note, I will now start researching how to disable the airbags.. :tiphat:

Yup, my 2003 and 2006 vehicles do not have auto locks..... :happydance:

Done, and I am a very happy driver right now... OM section 3-5 and 3-6. Many thanks:happydance:

am i losing it but doesn't the door auto unlock when you turn the car off?
i don't remember pushing any buttons to exit my car. plus it's cool to here them lock

Yes, lock and unlock and configurable separately.

My 2009 Mazda 3 does not autolock. But then again, I did not upgrade to the Miata doors, which I'm sure lock, unlock, launch rockets and parallel park.
