Can you elaborate on how to get the auto-unlock function to work, it drives me crazy.

Its part of the E-light ultimate product - you need to connect the black wire to pin 24 on the main computer. E-light gives you three blink indicators, auto Angel eyes, etc.

Just disable the whole auto-lock function with PASoft and save your locks...

Not a fan of auto lock/unlock. Wife's car is 20,000 miles behind mine and has 3 worn out door activators. Also the trunk is always locked when I need entry. In short it's 100% wrong guessing when I would like to have the doors locked and inconveniences me every time.

I love em.

Figure it will give me time to activate the riff raff repellant system (.45 pistol) in the event of some moron trying to carjack me or mine.

Little late if they can just open the door without you knowing.

I activated mine when I got the car a few months ago because GF Unit is "worried" for her handbag and was locking them anyways and saying "my mini at least locks herself when I drive".

I think i'd be ok with locking at 15mph not 2. What happens is I'm constantly locked out of getting something in or out of the car at my inconvenience. At least 5-10x a month. Once I can a) program some non-stupidity into at least my key life will be improved.

Make sure to select the keys just above the locking condition. If you don't know what key you have, select all 4.
