Jan 8 2016 2488 – 2015-2016 Edge and 2016 MKX – Procedure To Disable Autolocks
Some 2015-2016 Edge and 2016 MKX customers may request to have the autolocks disabled.
The autolocks are not a customer configurable feature. If a customer request to have the autolocks disabled, use IDS version 98.04 or higher to disable the autolocks.
Enter Module Programming – Programmable Parameters – Power Door Locks – Auto Lock 1-5 – Enable/Disable.
To disable the autolocks, Auto Lock 1 through Auto Lock 5 all need to be disabled prior to pressing the tick mark.
Disabling the autolocks at the request of the customer cannot be claimed as a warrantable repair.
Section 501-14 of the online Workshop Manual is being updated to provide direction on disabling the autolock feature.
Service Information & Reprogramming
Software necessary to program electronic modules to the latest calibration level, perform module initialization (PATS), and set Programmable Parameters on Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles.
Ford Module Programming (FMP) is a software application that allows subscribers to program electronic modules on Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles. It can be used for:
- Reprogramming emission-related (OBDII) modules on some vehicles manufactured in 1995 and all vehicles manufactured from 1996 to the present
- Reprogramming or reconfiguring non-emission-related modules on many vehicles (UBP and MS-CAN not supported)
In addition, module initialization (PATS) functions such as Keycode Erase/Reprogram and PCM Parameter Reset can be done using this application.
J2534 Device 
using Ford Module Programming (FMP) can Reprogram and Configure most Modules.

How does this dealer controlled auto lock feature differ from the owner programmable auto lock feature on my 2013 MKX that locks the doors when the vehicle reaches a certain speed.
My issue is that the doors mysteriously auto lock sometimes when I get out of the vehicle and shut the door….I haven’t pushed any buttons, they just do it.
Can you have the passenger auto unlock disabled but still have driver side enabled?
Unfortunately no, it’s all enabled or disabled.
