2013 locking questions

Postby WiredElectronix » Fri Jul 20, 2018 5:02 am

Hi,

I have just bought a 2013 transit connect xlt for my business and have seen a big security issue for my tools. I have installed a bulkhead behind the driver seat before the slider doors, but the unlock switch in the front will unlock the sliders and not the rear doors but i need the sliders to only be unlocked by the fob or key ONLY. Is there any possible way to do this factory hardware? I can do it easily with an aftermarket option but id like to stay away from that.

Different locking options can be set using IDSfor larger transits so I can only assume its the same for the samller variants.
Its either a dealer job or you need someone who has IDS.

Just as an aside, you're not leaving the rear locks as standard are you? They are easily opened.
I've found slamlocks to be a good idea, or in your case it sounds like you'd benefit from deadlocks.
