Auto Lock and Unlock

Featured Replies

Alright Guys,

On a 21 Fiesta I've read there's no Auto Lock feature, but why does my car have Auto Unlock then?

Bit confusing to have one but not the other, thought they were both removed from UK cars.

Cheers



Auto lock is not on UK Fords, i.e. auto locking when you go over a certain speed.

However you can still lock the doors manually by pressing the button, in the event of an accident, auto unlock will attempt to unlock the doors to assist emergency services.

... Which won a new S class Mercedes for one of their engineers.

The story goes that at the launch, the CEO announced to the assembled staff that it was the most secure car ever made and rashly bet that if anybody could get into it in two minutes they could keep the car. One of the engineers fetched a sledgehammer and used it to wallop the front bumper. The hazard lights came on, the driver's airbag triggered and the doors unlocked.

I did autolock in ForScan. When the car reaches approx 10MPH it locks unless im being a dummy and you mean the car stood still auto locking? Mine still does that after i think 10mins is it? Fiesta 2018. Take a look at Forscan theres lots you can enable in there. Just make sure you backup and save your config before you doing any tinkering 😄

The autolock at standstill only triggers if u unlock the car, then don't open any doors after a certain amount of time, then it auto relocks
