Title: auto lock?
Post by: fordguy545 on March 01, 2009, 09:29:47 PM
An 88 TC doesnt have an auto door lock feature that locks the doors as soon as the car moves does it?  Just wondering because my doors started locking after I moved it out of the shop after welding up the torque boxes and redoing all the suspension bushings.  It never locked the doors before, and I never messed with the door switches at all.  Just wondering a possible cause

Yes they do, you can turn it on and off from the keypad on the door.  I don't recall the key combo but an owners manual will have it.

auto lock combo also on the module.

The auto lock will only activate when going past N and into D.

My 84 T/c 5spd has this feature and it only does it when I take it out of reverse.

AHAA, I wondered why that wire on the bottom of the drivers seat was unhooked, lol.  I plugged it in when I put the seats back in.

I couldn't figure out why mine didn't work and it was the same problem:hick:  I discovered it when I removed the front seats to have them re-upholstered.
