1G Disable Automatic Door Locking

[Dsmpagan]

My 91 talon has a function my 90 never had. When you start the car the doors automatically lock. Sounds like a safety feature but I hate it. I locked myself out twice. Is there a fuse i can pull to stop this or another way to disable it? Its a silly problem but locking yourself out sucks.
Thanks

I've never heard of that on any 1g or 2g. Maybe the previous owner changed the wiring to do that? Is does that immediately when you start the engine or when you go over 5mph (like some other makes do)?

yeah when you start the car it locks the door even before you move. I had planned on taking out the alarm system maybe its a function of that and not something that came stock.

Definitely not a stock feature...

If it is an aftermarket alarm try pulling the fuse. Check under the dash by the steering column.

Sounds like the ignition sense wire is hooked up on an aftermarket alarm/keyless. do the doors lock when started only, or if you turn the key to ON w/o actually starting?

Usually on aftermarket systems the wire is ~14 gauge and yellow. if you unhook the wire or remove the main fuses for the system it will disable the lock function.

Yes this is a feature of the alarm for sure, if you can find a wiring diagram for the alarm the vehicle has you can disable solely that feature and keep the alarm if you want it
