The doors lock by them selfs once you put the key in the ignition weather it is running or not. is this an factory option or a fault and if it is a option how do i stop it? thanks in advance Mark

Wow...I wanted that feature on my Accord...but have only seen it offered by default on american/domestic cars.

Did you buy new or used? If used there are aftermarket "add-on" modules that do allow for autolocking the doors...so maybe one was added by a previous owner... :dunno:

Where are you located. Different Contries have different setups...

Never seen that in the states. My TL locks when I go over 10 MPH....

Oh, hi Mike, its been a while. How's it going?

I am in the uk. and I dont want it to lock.

Leave the door open for 10 seconds while you turn the key. I don't think this is a factory option. It sounds like you have an aftermarket alarm/ keyless entry installed. If you can figure out what brand/ model you may be able to disable this feature.

I am about to swop the whole locking mechanism and central locking from another accord identical to mine and I need to know were to look to remove the right bits so the keys will start my car. any help would be very apreciated at this moment. the car is a 1997 Honda Accord 2.0i S
automatic. the donor car is the same. were is the imobalser unit hidden and any other relevent items I need to remove. thanks in advance. :notworthy
