CAR doesn’t lock automaticly

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Hallo,
Questionnaires; i connected My apple phone to my tesla so i don’t have to use my Tesla card to open Doors or to start the car.

so now the cars opens when i arrive at the car and also i can drive away directly.

Issue is when i park the car and i step out the car doesn’t lock automaticly. The only way i can lock it is to open the tesla app and lock the car.

does someone know how to change this?
 
Welcome to TMC!

here is the information I found in the manual on "walk away door lock". Hope this helps.

================================

Walk-Away Door Lock
Doors and trunks can automatically lock
whenever you walk away carrying your
authenticated phone. To turn this feature on or
off, touch Controls > Locks > Walk-Away Door
Lock.

When the doors lock, the exterior lights flash
once and the mirrors fold (if equipped with
the premium package and Fold Mirrors is on).

To also hear a confirmation sound whenever
Model 3 locks, touch Controls > Locks > Lock
Confirmation Sound > ON.
Model 3 does not automatically lock if:

• An authenticated phone is detected inside
Model 3.

• You are not using an authenticated phone
as the key and walk away carrying the key
card or key fob.

When using the key card
you must manually lock Model 3 by
tapping the key card against the door
pillar. When using the key fob (sold as an
accessory), you must manually lock Model
3 by pressing the lock button. See Keys on
page 7.

• A door or trunk is not fully closed.

Note: If all doors are closed and Model 3 was
automatically unlocked by your authenticated
phone, walk-away locking is temporarily
suspended for one minute. If you open a door
within this minute, it will not re-lock until all
the doors are closed and you have walked
away with the authenticated phone.
