Kadjar autolocking when walking away

Unread post by skragamuffin »

hi all i have a 2015 Kadjar and using dtt4all have enabled the autolock feature when you walk away from the car..... this works flawlesly but i dont hear any beeps from the car when it locks i belive this is because it wasnt factory fitted feature and there should be a speaker i think under the skuttle pan i havent looked as yet its too hot tbh but is this a correct assumption and if there is one is this the right location and a part number would be very much appreciated

thanks all for your great help

I know less about Renaults than you do but I had a hunt around and found someone with similar difficulties. Apparently there is a box under the door sill which has vulnerable plugs which loosen with people getting in and out of the car. I found these which may help you:

"FIXED!!!! I left it in for service with Renault today and mentioned to the service desk. They said to the mechanic and apparently there’s a sensor under the door well kick board. He said that over time people getting in and out of the car have hit it and loosened the plug. He literally plugged it back in again and we’re back to the normal small lock beeps!!"

I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!
