Hey Hyundaitech, an idea ...

Nov 22, 2005 6 Replies

Have you ever wired a Santa Fe, or other Hyundai, to automatically lock when placed in gear? I was wondering if there is a module, or wiring idea to do this. With my very limited understanding of the wiring of my beast, I would think that somehow sending a signal to the locking solenoid would do the trick.



TIA


If you go to the Elantra Club website -

You'd probably have to somehow install a position switch on the shifter or install an electronic device which sent a single signal when it received signal from the range switch that the trans was in D.

REPLY: I had a 1995 Chrysler LeBaron GTS that did this whenever it would go into 2nd gear of the auto transmission ; it locked all doors.

What is your problem? If you can't control your juvenile temper, go play somewhere else!
