2006 S60 lost key, options? Topic is solved

[jimmy57]

The no lock is due to the switch in lock cylinder that triggers key in warning. It is not immo chip sensing. Immo chip sensing is done when ignition goes to position 2 in less than 100 milliseconds.

My car will absolutely not let me lock the doors with a key in the ignition, not with another remote fob.. not by using another key in the outside door lock (it just pops back up/unlocks)..not by pushing the lock button on the door before closing the door.. If that 'denial to lock the car' function is tied to the CEM being able to read a key transponder (if it sees one, the only allowable way to lock the car is with the button on the door with the door shut)... then the idea of hiding a programmed key/transponder chip near the antenna ring might be a problem.

I lock Munchy Dog in my 2004 S80 all the time with the engine running. I lock lock the doors while sitting in the driver's seat engine and ac on. Open the door which unlocks only the driver door. Than shut it insert the second key into the outside lock and turn right which locks the door for my car. Then the dog is safely locked in with the ac while I go into the store. Now the push buttons dont work with the engine running so I have to manually unlock the car with the key. My car twist the key left once and only unlock the driver side door but turn the key left for a second time and all doors unlock. June

I just tried it. I can lock and unlock the doors with the remote as long as the key is not actually in the ignition

If the key is in the ignition, you must also have a dog in the car.

How about thawing groceries, other types of animals? And where is the O.P.?

Your dog left in the car with your only key in ignition, with it running, can absolutely lock your car by standing and depressing the lock button. That same dog will almost assuredly not be coaxed into stepping on the unlocks side of that switch regardless of bribe or threat.

How about a retriever?

This works on my 99 but non on my 2005. The lock goes down and then jumps back up when I release the key.

Maybe a setting in VIDA?

The dog has it easier than that in my car since my S80 still uses the Volvo Central locking system. So only one button for lock and unlock. The trick woul be to get a paw on that little button June

Didn't Volvo change the computer system for 2005 and up cars? June
