I'm looking at a flexitrunk and trying to figure out how to lock the trunk so that someone cannot reach in the front door and unlock it with the switch. I have read all the threads that say the switch is disabled after 20-30 seconds, but mine is not. It will still open the truck after an hour.

Mine is an 07 and I appearantly do not have an alarm, so there is no red dash light flashing after I lock it with the remote. I have asked three dealer service departments about it and none even knew that the lock switch could be disabled after a delay - much less how to make mine do it. I really do not want to pull the wire to teh lock because I get in there alot and using the key every time would be a real pain(the power locks have spoiled me, I know)

So, is there some code / programming that will disable the switch once locked with the remote - kinda like the automatic lock when driving program- or is it only 08s and or Jeeps with alarms that disable the switch? Any thoughts?

 

You may be able to shop around different dealers. Basically all functions of the JK are managed by a Starscan (SP?) tool. It's Chrysler's programming machine, and apparently there are alllll kinds of things to tinker with in it.



I know a while back, a member here got his hands on one. I'm not sure if that member is still around, or if they have access to it, but perhaps somebody else has some details....
