Auto Locking/Unlocking Doors in Drive/Park

[brodie7838]

Hey everyone.
I found this post (http://www.scikotics.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1694154) over on Scikotics where a few people were asking about a certain combination done with the keys/brakes/door lock that would activate a feature where the door locks would automatically engage once the car is shifted into/out of gear or when over 16 miles an hour.

I've read this to be a pretty common Toyota feature, but I can't seem to find out is what combination the xD uses to actually enable this feature, or if it's one of those things you have to take into the dealership for.

I went down to my dealership and asked but got the brush-off by the service guy on hand, and he wanted to charge me $50 just to give me a solid answer and do it!

Has anyone else heard of this or have any experience with it?

I have heard that with the 08 xD such as the one I have it won't work but I could be wrong...Anyone else have any definate answers?

I went to the dealership today. The tech was awesome and let me hover over his shoulder while he plugged his laptop into the OBD port and explained which options were available to be customized for the xD.

Long story short, the feature to have the doors lock automatically once the car was in motion is not available.

He did tell me that a lot of the programmable options don't become active until the Toyota security has been installed, and suggested this feature might be included in that, though it was unconfirmed.

Sooo, there we have it...

Thanks for the update Brodie
