Automatic Door Lock Device for Hyundai/Kia/Genesis
Automatic Door Lock Device for Hyundai/Kia/Genesis
As you're aware, your Hyundai, Kia or Genesis will not automatically lock your doors for you after exiting the car. This device solves that problem! Exit your Hyundai Ioniq 5/6 (sorry, no 5 N), Kia EV6/EV9 or Genesis GV60, close all the doors and the car will automatically lock 10 seconds later! It won’t lock the doors if the keys are left behind unless the car is in accessory mode (start button pushed once without your foot on the brake pedal.) Continue to use whichever method you prefer to gain access to your car(fob, phone, key card.) Nothing changes when you install the door lock device.

I HIGHLY ADVISE YOU CONSIDER THE TRAILER CONNECTOR VERSION FOR EASIEST INSTALL! EV6 Light trim (small battery) doesn't have trailer light wiring harness and will need to be installed with wire taps under front seat. Please read the instructions prior to purchasing to make sure you are up for this task! It's an easy installation but if you've never worked on a car or electrical before, you may want to consider getting it professionally installed.
Remember, you are installing this device at your own risk! I am not responsible for any damage or change in vehicle behavior that you incur due to improper installation of this device.
Installation Instructions:
Kia EV6 Trailer Light Wiring Harness Install
Kia EV9 Trailer Light Wiring Harness Install
Ioniq 5 Trailer Light Wiring Harness Install
GV60 Trailer Light Wiring Harness Install
24-25 Kia Sorento Wire Tap Install
If you already have trailer lighting installed on your car, you can install this device with wire taps on that harness if you like or you can install under the seat. It won't interfere with trailer lighting. Those instructions are at the end of this document: Ioniq 5 Wire Tap Install
In this kit you will receive all the necessary hardware for installation in your Ioniq 5/6, Kia EV6/EV9 or Genesis GV60. The only tools you may need is a pair of pliers, flat head screwdriver, and 10mm or adjustable wrench.
Wire-Tap Kit contains: Control module with 3M foam adhesive tape and four T-style wire taps. Optional is the case for the control module.
EV6 owners without automatic unlocking doors (but have auto folding side view mirrors), this device adds auto unlock on approach!
Owners that utilize the "easy access" setting where the seat moves back when entering or exiting may experience additional movements on their drivers seat after installing the device. This can be alleviated by starting the car within 10 seconds of entering OR disabling the "easy access" feature.
You can disable and enable this device using the following procedures. You should disable if the car is to go for repairs to not cause confusion for the technician.
- Disable/enable by short pressing trunk button on the remote 3 times after turning off ignition and stepping outside the car.
- If you set DIP switch 1 to the on position, you can enable/disable the device by pressing either the lock or unlock button on your key fob three times rapidly.
Other noteworthy things:
- If the car is on or placed into utility mode and you leave the car, it will not lock
- If the car is in accessory mode and you leave the car it will lock. You will have to unlock with the app.
- You can continue using smartphone/watch/key card entry and start as usual.
- If you close and leave the car before your passenger doors or rear hatch are closed, it will auto lock the car after all remaining doors are shut
