Hello all. I just joined the forum today. Can someone please tell me how to disable the auto-locks that lock the doors when you reach 12mph? All I can find in the settings is the disable "switch" for the auto-unlock. I already tried the Ford how-to video method of starting the engine, push unlock 6 times, shut engine off, push unlock 6 times, and so on. That must be a 4+ year old video though, because it doesn't work on my 2020 ST. Thanks for the help.

Try this method…
Switching Between Turning On/Off Ford's Automatic LockPress on the door unlock button. Then, press the lock button. You will hear the horn sound one time to indicate that you have turned off your automatic locking feature
Autolock: Press the power door unlock button then the lock button. The horn will sound once if disabled or twice (one short and one long) if enabled. Autounlock: Press the power door lock button then the unlock button. The horn will sound once if disabled or twice (one short and one long) if enabled.

Basically because, if I wanted the doors locked, I would've locked them myself. It's most annoying when I am picking someone up who is standing there waiting for me and when they try to get in, the doors are locked. I realize that putting it in Park will unlock the doors. But, typically, when I'm just pulling up to let my daughter out or pick her up at school, dance, gymnastics, church, etc., I'm still in Drive with my foot on the brake, and the dang doors are locked.
*Note by "auto-locks", I am referring to, is the doors locking themselves when you hit 12mph. I want to disable that feature.

Here are some screen shots of what I changed in Forscan to disable auto locks. After several times of having passengers get out of the rear doors and myself getting out to get something out of the cargo area, I can confirm my auto locks are now disabled!
The two modules I made changes in are the APIM and BdyCM. Changed the value by double clicking on the word “enabled” - change it from “enabled” to “disabled”. Make all of your changes at the same time and then click write at the bottom of the screen to save. Good luck!
