Door lock and unlock doesn’t work

The door lock and unlock may not be working on the Automate AM6 for several reasons:

1. Not Connected – The system requires proper connection to the vehicle's power door locks. If the wiring is incorrect or disconnected, the locks will not function.
2. Extra Parts Required – Some door lock systems need additional parts for compatibility. Check if your vehicle requires extra components.
3. Programming Issue – The system can be programmed to lock and unlock automatically. If it is not set up correctly, the feature may not work.
4. Failsafe® Starter Kill Activation – If this feature is engaged, it may prevent the system from operating normally. Disarm the system to check.
5. Faulty Module or Switch – If the factory door switch or module has failed, the automate system may have been installed as a workaround. If this module is also faulty, door locks may not work.

Check wiring, programming, and system components to diagnose the issue.
