joczeze Posted May 18, 2005 Report Posted May 18, 2005 Hello Somebody had told me that is is possible to fit the galaxy, like mine, 1.9 TDI MKI, to automatic close (block) the doors when start movements (when some miles per hour). Does somebody can help me ?Do you know the codes to use ? Thanks Quote
Ivor_E_Tower Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 I think this got asked just a few weeks ago, and nobody could come up with a way of doing it. Best thing is to lock the doors before you drive off; the crash sensors will automatically unlock them if you are unfortunate to be involved in an accident. Quote
HJT Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 Didn't realise the doors would unlock in the event of a crash. Howard Quote
Guest MATT Posted May 19, 2005 Report Posted May 19, 2005 if its the kids worrying you to death, use the child locks. MATT Quote
MrT Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 It is usually to stop people opening the door to the car to snatch a bag or rob you that is why you want to lock the doors. It is not that rare in some of the less pleasant urban areas in traffic jams. Quote
Guest MATT Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 yes - but if they only lock when the car is moving, and then unlock when the car stops - isn't that useless for the scenario you just described. if you want the doors to be locked while in the car for security, you just need to lock all the doors, on the mk2, you just press a button, or push the door handle in, don't know about the mk1.

seatkid Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 By default, the boot locks automatically when you move. Door locking may possibly be a programmable option on VAGCOM - I don't know. The Dealer would know, or email Ford technical support. It is on my Skoda Fabia, it is programmed to lock all doors above 15kph. In the event of a crash that sets off any airbags etc. the doors are always automatically unlocked. Quote
MrT Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 I was not aware that the autolocking doors unlocked again when you slowed down. I never quite worked out why the door locking button is there on the Mk2 when it is next to the door handle which does the same job. Quote
Ivor_E_Tower Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 I never quite worked out why the door locking button is there on the Mk2 when it is next to the door handle which does the same job. I have discovered a subtle difference - if you get in and lock using the handle, the interior lights are immediately extinguished. If you lock using the separate button, the interior lights remain on - I found this out to my advantage in a dark multi-storey car park a few weeks ago. We live and learn ! Quote
buford_t_justice Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 I was not aware that the autolocking doors unlocked again when you slowed down. MrT, When autolocking has been enabled they don't unlock again when you've slowed down. I have them enabled on my VW Bora which I did using VAG-COM. Unable to do it on the Galaxy though. Quote
MrT Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 Do you know if that because the Galaxy does not support it or you don't have the codes to do it? Quote
paulmpaciorek Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 Hijacker How did you enable this on your Bora ? I would like to do it on our Bora as "er indoors" always has her bag and mobile in full view so if the local "chavs and pikeys " wanted to snatch em they could easily do so.I have told her about only pressing the key fob once and leaving the rest locked but if she has the kids in they are all open. I have Vag -com. Quote
Guest V6 Owner (George) Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 On my Ford Galaxy it locks when i go above 5 MPH and only unlocks when i turn off the engine or when i open one of the doors with the engine running or if i was to crash and touch wood i havent yet. :blink: George Quote
joczeze Posted May 22, 2005 Author Report Posted May 22, 2005 Thanks George This is what I wish to do in my galaxy. I know it is possible, but i do not know the vag-com codes for that. If anybody can send it I will be very gratefull. Thanks Quote

I have Vag -com. On the central locking module, press adaption (10) on channel 3 and set bit to 1=on to lock car at 15km/h. To unlock the car at removal of ignition key change channel 4 to 1=on.

ALARM MAN Posted May 22, 2005 Report Posted May 22, 2005 Have looked into this on MK1 unfortunatley this cannot be done even with an aftermarket kit the drivers door handle is like a light switch when its on its on and when its off its off so if you put a different signal ie earth or 12 v it blows fuse Ian Quote

joczeze Posted January 2, 2007 Author Report Posted January 2, 2007 Dear Sirs I believe it is possible. See http://www.poliseat.com/postx16919-0-30.ht...34708339e01cac5 And this http://www.sgaf.de/viewtopic.php?t=45811 I will try to do it as soon as possible. Any coments ? Thanks Quote
NikpV Posted January 7, 2007 Report Posted January 7, 2007 I will try to do it as soon as possible. Any coments ? Thanks wow you are still trying after 19 months - persistent or what, I couldn't make anything of the first link but It seems that it is possible on the alhambra at 14 km/h will be interested if it works, ;) beware the second mod - global locking from the remote - on the galaxy at least global closing does not involve the safety interlock on the windows i.e it will force them closed with a possible risk to fingers (esp childrens) if activated accidently e.g sitting on the fob ;) CVouldn't work out what the 3rd mod was ;) Quote
joczeze Posted January 12, 2007 Author Report Posted January 12, 2007 Dear Friends After all this month, I can tell you YES it WORKS. Now I have my MK1 1998 closing the dors when in move and open when I get out the key !!!!!!! Thanks everbody that help me to unerstand how to do it.However the work to discover new funtions wiil go on...... Regards Quote
NikpV Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 My languages are not very good, did you use Vag-com to do this? what version? registered? could write down exactly what you did in a pot here please Quote
joczeze Posted January 12, 2007 Author Report Posted January 12, 2007 Dear Friend I have the some language problem. I Quote
HalfPint Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 On the central locking module, press adaption (10) on channel 3 and set bit to 1=on to lock car at 15km/h. To unlock the car at removal of ignition key change channel 4 to 1=on. Quote
