Boot Opening

[john1086]

hi there,

this is just a topic to solve an argument my friend picks me up now and then in his 2010 ford focus he stops out side my house doesnt stop the engine and dosent get out of the car or open his door and when i go to put my bag in his boot it wont open when i press it, yet when he gets out of the car it will open he thinks im not pressing it right but having had a focus im 100% sure im am, is there a sensor or something that locks it while your driving then wont let you open it until you either stop the engine or open a car door?

thanks

Yep, the idea is to stop anyone stealing items from boot while staionary at lights etc.

Unless he has auto locks on his doors it will be unlocked as all other doors and fuel flap are the boot doesnt remain locked with all other doors unlocked
