Is it possible to disable the automatic door locking ?

Just bought a 2016 Leaf. The doors all lock automatically after about 20 seconds driving. Is there any way to disable this ? It's really annoying. No carjackers here, but we've had someone standing in the rain trying to get their luggage from the back seat while the driver tries to find the door controls in the dark.

I'd seen this before in a US-buiit truck, which I'd borrowed to do deliveries - stopping while passengers unloaded items at multiple addresses. Absolutely infuriating.

The behavior can be configured w/Leaf Spy and the appropriate OBD2 dongle. It has nothing to do w/number of seconds, but rather the auto-lock happens when you reach 15 mph per page 3-6 of the 2016 Leaf manual.

See below.

The w/o Consult procedures may also work: http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?p=251347#p251347 may also work.

Thanks. I must have forgotten to turn on notification and didn't see your reply till I went looking for one.

I happen to have ordered an OBD dongle to work with LeafSpy already, just because it seemed a useful app. Not arrived yet. Do you happen to know if the door unlock works in the free version or would I need the Pro version ?

I disabled my auto door lock feature simply using the instructions in the manual, no Leafspy required. I don't remember the exact sequence of what I did but it was relatively simple, no car jackers here either
