Speed-detecting automatic door locking

Check your operators manual. On my 2010 Prius, I was able to delete the auto door lock when moving feature by just manipulating drivers controls as shown in the op manual. Selecting that feature should be as easy using the same controls.

 

Check pages 89-90 in the owners manual...

 

I don't believe the UK or Euro spec Prii have the option. I asked my dealer if it was a hidden option on their computer so they could switch it on for me (helps in a cab - don't want mugging at the traffic lights) but there isn't one.

Same as DRL's on the pre-2012 Prii. The Canadian versions and some Euro versions have it, but that too can't be just switched on by the dealers as it requires an extra wiring loom.

 

Possibly this video might help
Luther Owners Manual |
Go to select a video.
Choose 2012 Toyota Prius
In the drop down "select a video" box. In the "topic" drop down box, choose " vehicle settings"( near the bottom of the list) and play video.

One of the first things they cover is turning the auto door lock feature on / off.
This is the US version, but it might work on your UK Prius.

 

It doesn't.

 

Rats, I guess that would be too easy

 

Funny, that is one thing I hate about cars that do it. Disabled on all our Lexus vehicles before we got off the lot. But then again I am a crazy Canadian and don't even lock my house. It is much nicer to live in peace than in fear.

Could try this but I think it gets plugged into the OBD socket when you want this function to work.

 

i would loved to have this feature.. speed detecting door lock..
Any idea how i can do that
now my car is a JDM... and it seems it does not have these feature. When i connect OBD2 under customization it shows some items including revers beep, seatbelt beep etc.. but this feature is not seem to be available.
Also.. I tried pressing drivers door panel buttons in recommended combinations, even it would not come to work with shifting to & from Parking.

Since i fixed the autofolding mirror, i know where to tap door lock signal
and it seems the seat belt beep has the speed sensing beep;

can this two be combined in a way to make this happen.. I'm thinking; then how?

 

It's been tried and failed in the past. The JDM and European Prius's are different to the US versions and can't easily be made to auto lock. You might be the first to solve the issue, but at what financial cost?

 

I repeatedly tried to shut off the stupid automatic locking, using the door panel switch, exactly as described in the owner's manual, as best I could interpret it. That didn't work. Anybody have a clue what step I missed, or is it really impossible?

 

What you meant is combining this two signals has been tried and failed?
In which forum was it discussed?

 

Carista app and obd2 adapter will do it.

 

Hi dnldcs
Thanks for the info about carista.
Is there a chance it can show this feature even if its not showing with techstream (which I have tried)
So I was assuming that feature is not available in my car.
Then any idea where can I download windows app of carista.

 

I am not sure, I can tell you that the Carista app is free for android and Apple devices, and it will "scan" your car and tell you the options available for change, which for mine was speed locks. If it is available for yours you can then purchase the pro version to actually make the change or find a "hacked" app which will allow you to circumvent the in-app purchase. I am not aware of Carista having a Windows app. Hope this helps.

 

I'm in Australia and, from experience with Gen2 Prius, if it won't work in UK, it won't work in Aus. Just downloaded Carista to try the door auto locking, but no go (Gen3).

So don't think will be available in UK either.
