Golf/GTI VI :: Manually Locking Doors Without Using Key Fob?


Dec 7, 2011

I just got my car a couple weeks ago and still haven't figured out how to lock the doors as I'm getting out of the car without using the key fob. I looked through the manual when I got the car and thought it said that I could just hold down the button for longer. That didn't work.

I saw some threads that mention (no detail) manual locking and how it doesn't enable the alarm...??? I guess I don't understand what 'alarm' they're talking about either. I thought the only anti-theft security measure is is the fact that the keys are chipped. Does an audible alarm go off if the car is broken into?

What am I missing? I feel like my manual describes a lot of options are are not standard or even available on US cars. It's pretty crappy compared to what I got with my old Honda. BTW I don't have the KESSY option.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Doors Not Locking From Outside Of The Car

Starting a few days ago both of my key FOBs stopped locking the car. They both can still unlock the car and open the trunk, but they cannot lock the car. However the doors can still be locked from the button inside the door. From that I know the locking mechanisms aren't broken so it must be something electronic. What could be causing this?

Golf IV R32 :: Both Rear Doors Randomly Not Locking Or Unlocking

Okay, i have an issue with both rear doors randomly not locking or unlocking, i have to manually push down on the rear door lock buttons to lock them, then when i try to unlock them they get stuck, then when i pull the inside door handles they pop up again only sometimes.

1. I use keyfob to lock or unlock wont work

2. I manually put key into the drivers door, still not working

3. I use the inside drivers door switch and still doesn't work

Other problem is when I arm the alarm with keyfob, battery goes flat, i think it's sensing that the door is open why its draining the battery. Both front doors work excellent.

Golf/GTI VI :: 2010 - Disable Alarm Honk When Locking The Doors

Is there any way to disable the alarm honk when locking the doors (2010 GTI)? The sound is obnoxious and I cannot stand it anymore. I took it to the dealer for my 90 day check-up and they said they cannot do it with this model.

I'm pretty sure it can be done with the VAG-COM........ but I don't have one. Is there a way to just unplug the unit that produces the noise.

Malibu - Chevrolet :: 2009 - Doors Do Not Lock Or Unlock Manually When Use A Key

Sometimes the locks in the doors do not lock or unlock and I have to use a key or do it manually if its not the drivers door. Only in a certain range of temperatures does this problem occur. It happens when it is roughly between 65 and 85 degrees out.

It will not have this issue when it is cold nor will it happen when it is beastly hot, just when its a bit warm. I press the lock button on the fob and all but the drivers door or the door right behind it will lock. It is frustrating and I want to know if there is something I can do to prevent this from persisting and to know if the locks will eventually fail completely if it goes unchecked.

it has never been in an accident, but shes had her doors slammed a few times in the past by my passengers.

Lexus IS 2014+ :: Key Fob No Longer Locking Doors

I have a 2014 is250. Everything was fine until i showed it to a friend who hoped in it like a fool and started mashing buttons. So when I got home i realized when i shut the car down, opened the door nothing turned off. And my fob is not locking or doing anything. When you shut the car door it makes the same beeps that it makes when i hope out at the gas station with the keys in my hand and the car still running.

Camry :: Keyless Fob Not Locking Doors On 2004 XLE

When we parked our Camry tonight and went to lock the doors with the fob we got the long continuous beep like a door was open but they were all closed. The door ajar light was on. I got in and turned on the ignition and the light went out. Interior lights went out. I then turned the car off took out the key out and the dash door light went back on, the overhead lights went on also. The doors open with the fob after locking with the internal lock. The key light follows these other two. So three lights the dash overhead and key are affected. There is no 15 sec time out but the 20 minute time out seems intact.

With the car running the lights do the right thing. The dash indoor indicator goes off the overhead and key dim to off. I can open a door the door ajar light comes on with the overhead lights. Is there a relay I should be looking to identify?

Lexus RX 2010-15 :: Locking Doors While Walking Away With Fob In Pocket

I have a 08 corvette that allows you to walk away from the car with the fob in your pocket and the car locks without having to touch anything once the fob is a certain many feet away from the car. I like that option and I cannot figure out how to do it on my wife's 2013 RX ( or even if it will work that way)

I don't drive her car that much but it seems inconvenient to have to remember to touch the little depression area on the outside driver handle to lock the car. I know, I could just get used to it , but just walking away without having to do something seems more simple and should be an option in a car of this cost and technology.

Is it possible to program the car to lock all doors when I walk away with the fob and not having to touch anything on the car?

Prius (2010-12) :: Locking The Doors When Hatchback Is Still Open

I've got a prius 2010, how do I lock the car with one of the doors (or hatchback) still open? The car just beeps at you until you close a door... And then it stops beeping, but doesn't lock. I find this to be exceedingly annoying, I'm surprised I couldn't find more than 1 other thread complaining about it. I find it annoying in two common situations:

a) I plan on locking the car with the fob, filling both of my hands full of things and pushing the door shut with my butt. I have no free hands left to find the fob in my pocket and lock the door, or walk around to the driver's side of the car to touch the lock sensor.

b) A passenger is dawdling getting all their stuff ready and plans to catch up with me in 30 seconds. I need the lock the car before I walk away.

Saturn :: Sounds As If Doors Are Unlocking And Locking When Driving

The issue began around July/August of this year. It sounds as if the car locks are attempting to lock and unlock while I am driving. It is a clicking sound. The doors will automatically lock when the car is going at 10 mph - this is normal. The locking/unlocking sound sometimes will start within 5 minutes and other times within 30 minutes - it is totally random. This does not happen every day but it is definitely monthly and has lasted anywhere from 3 days to 10 days. The other noise associated with it comes from the console on the passenger side. It is a clicking sound. This sound happens during the locking/unlocking sound but on intermittent cycles. The doors never become unlocked while I am driving. I purchased the car new.

Accent MC (2006-11) :: 2008 - Doors Locking Randomly?

I have a kind of weird problem with my '08 Accent Hatch that just started up last week.

Sometimes when I leave the car (Keys out of ignition and open door) all the doors lock automatically. Same thing happens even if I leave the car running and step out for a minute. And once or twice, the doors locked while driving.

Prius (2004-09) :: 2008 - Doors Not Locking All The Time

My 2008 is 4 years old now but only has 27k miles. (I'm retired.) However I am really disgusted that it has had so many serious problems. Most recently, the trunk will not open all the way. I noticed this before it went out of warranty but I assumed it just needed some WD-40. In fact I remember another poster on this forum actually making fun of another owner who complained about the trunk not opening all the way. Well, now the dealer tells me I need a whole new trunk support system for $388! I'll just live with it as long as I can stand it.

Additionally, the doors often don't lock when I push the thumb lock on the outside of the door. I've tried both doors and the trunk. Of course the dealer couldn't find anything wrong. I know I could try the key fob but I keep it zipped up inside a pocket inside my pocketbook and never fool with it - a feature I do love about the Prius. Having problem with the trunk not opening all the way?
