2005 V70 auto door locks

Post by abscate »

Do I need a VIDA DICE setup to turn off the auto door locking feature or is there a magic sequence of key and door lock sequence I can perform?

Thanks Jimmy. Time for me to break down and buy it, now that I own rather first 10 speed manual transmission Volvo.

I forgot to mention those, (sorry), thought you would like it
Someone paid good money to have this, it's software and labor.. $$
Not until MY 2007 can the owner adjust this himself.

I guess no software is needed to turn them off but it is a VIDA deal

I am pretty sure it is a software to undo it also on that car.

Autolock is an awful enough feature to begin with but when it doesn't unlock the driver's door when you put the gear lever in Park it is criminally bad.

Well, just open the door and it unlocks so really no big deal

Somehow rolling down I87 at 70 mph in that leather, at 34 mpg, the auto lock is way down the "issue list"

:D :D :D
