Lock The Doors Automatically?

[Gomoca]

Hi to all,

Is it possible to lock the doors automatically in a IQ from 2009, when you start driving the car??

The Auto-lock module can be set to lock after a time delay or connect a wire to an input that locks the doors when 12V is applied.

If you want the doors to lock when the car reaches speed, you need to get the RPM module and connect it to the Auto-Lock module.

You can set this module to lock at any speed you like.

Hi Raistlin,

But i was thinking in something like "...if you press the 'X' botom 10 seconds, it will lock the doors..." or "...if do this or that will lock the doors..."

Thanks anyway.

Who are you going to kidnap? Ha ha

Why not just lock the doors when you want

Why not just lock the doors when you want

It's a question of safety, it's a question that you & family don't have to matter.

There's a button on the door.... "click" "locked" .. :-)

I thought this was a forum to learn or even to have enabled in someone to enlighten us as.

If it is after all a forum for attempts at humorists ... My god, we're in good hands!

[sweet-dentist]

WTF Gomoca... serious ... there really is a button for this... and Raistlin told you how hard it is to program in the central computer, as some other cars have built in.

You need more info? :-/ What do you want?

[Gomoca]

Yes, I know. I understood, thank you.

[Raistlin]

There's no life without humour.

It can make the wonderful moments of life truly glorious, and it can make tragic moments bearable.

I note that it can be disappointing not getting the answer you want but life is like that...

[sweet-dentist]

The answer to "Life" is 42 ...

[Raistlin]

Yes, but what is the question. ..

[sweet-dentist]

Officially the question is:

The number 42 is, in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, "The Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything", calculated by an enormous supercomputer

over a period of 7.5 million years. Unfortunately no one knows what the

question is. Thus, to calculate the Ultimate Question, a special

computer the size of a small planet and built from organic components

was created and named "Earth". This appeared first in the radio play and later in the novelization of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

The fact that Adams named the episodes of the radio play "fits", the

same archaic title for a chapter or section used by Lewis Carroll in

"The Hunting of the Snark", suggests that Adams was influenced by

Carroll's fascination with and frequent use of the number. The fourth

book in the series, the novel So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, contains 42 chapters. According to the novel Mostly Harmless, 42 is the street address of Stavromula Beta. In 1994 Adams created the 42 Puzzle, a game based on the number 42.

The book 42: Douglas Adams' Amazingly Accurate Answer to Life, the Universe and Everything^[15]

examines Adams' choice of the number 42 and also contains a compendium

of some instances of the number in science, popular culture, and humour.

Well, in Europe there are plenty of cars that close the doors them selves without the human hand, that's all!!

Gomoca

Do you mean cars that automatically lock the doors when you pull away and unlock again when you stop? Like Taxi's?

David

[Gomoca]

Exactly! Not only Taxi's...

[tarquin]

Yes i was just giving the Taxi as an example. Its difficult to achieve as an aftermarket add on as it requires a data feed from the ECU that indicates the vehicle is moving at a particular speed and then sends a control voltage to the door controller, Also built in to this has to have a "hang time " so that it doesn't keep switching open/closed as you slowly move along in slow moving traffic. Probably to operate at 10mph to lock, and 2 sec after becoming stationary to open again. there is more than meets the eye at first glance

David

[Gomoca]

Thank you David. I was thinking, as an example, Nissan Qashqai. He close the doors 10 seconds after moving the car.

Good idea,

please,do you know where to find the electric diagram of the iQ to connect the autolock?

Thanks

Make sure it unlocks the doors when the airbags activate to allow someone to open the doors from outside in case of a crash...

Dave

[tarquin]

See hidden worries

David

Actually thinking about it. One would assume the method that opens the doors now when air bags are triggered should still be intact when the after market auto unit is applied As it stands the doors are opened and closed by a pulse of a certain duration rather than a fixed relay system. So even if the door is locked by the the added auto lock unit, then on impact the airbag trigger would send the "Open" pulse shortly followed by the auto unit sending the same pulse as the car has come to a stop. Good luck testing it though.
